    Hey everyone,

    So I just received my Pixel 2 today and while I do like it, the build on the back is really bugging me. Am I being nit picky if I said I was thinking of returning it because of this? I am not sure if you can tell what I see, but it looks like the glass and the aluminium don't run flush across the back panel. What say you?

    Is this normal or cause for concern?-pixel-2-111.jpg

    It's supposed to be flush. I'd return it.

    If anything the aluminum is supposed to be a tad higher than the glass. At least that's how it is on my XL. Which I'd prefer so most of the back rests on the aluminum and not the glass.

    Mine is pretty flush... The metal feels just slightly higher if you run your fingernail across the seam

    Alright, thanks fellas. Ordered another one to compare and will send this one back more than likely. I wouldn't mind if it was one spot, but it has that warp effect where it rises in and out. Can't handle that. I appreciate the responses!

    It is hard to capture on picture. I think the first shot shows it best, how it has a wave like feeling, going down and up, down and up.

    If I were the OP, I would definitely return it. That would bug me enough to put up with setting up a new one

    Mine is perfectly flush and straight. I'd return that for sure.
