    Playstore opens Youtube videos in landscape but then...

    I find this annoying behavior with Playstore. Whenever I click on the video preview of an app, it goes directly to play the YouTube video in landscape mode. But then after viewing on landscape mode, it returns to the Playstore page on landscape mode- but now it won't switch back to portrait mode...

    Pixel 2 / 2 XL - Let's see your setup on your Home Screen(s)!

    Nevermind the other apps I use, I want to emphasize on the 2 middle ones: one to pull down the notification pane, and the other to lock the phone. Bacause Google hasn't thought of swipe down for notifications and double tap to lock up to now 🙄

    Screen Lock Suggestions?

    2XL is a big device, and I find it inconvenient to have to push the power button to sleep/Lock my phone. One time it almost slipped off my hand because I pushed a bit too hard. I'm used to my old phone's double-tap-to-sleep feature and it also saves the button from physical wear and tear. Any...

    Dirty White Panda?

    I owned an HTC One X (amazing phone in those days btw) and I never had problems keeping the white housing clean. Then again it's made of hard glossy plastic. My 2XL immediately"absorbed" the color of my cutting board in just a minute of contact. Not sure how the color bled to it, and it took me...

    New Saturation Settings (Thoughts)

    Tried Saturated and everyone on my Facebook feed has an orangey reddish bronze hue on their skin which looks very unnatural. All red icons seem to bleed and all whites has an old-paper yellowish tint. Using Boosted now. I like the slightly enhanced version of how we normally see things effect.

    This is what you're buying into with the Pixel Brand

    Not wanting to start a conspiracy theory here but, it's always better to nip the competition on the bud... and we all know how much $$$ the other ( two) big players are.........

    Anyone plan to move from Pixel to iPhone X?

    Ended up getting the 2XL (using it now). I've invested too much in Google's ecosystem that it's just too much work to move everything and get used to the new (and closed) system. One great advantage of being on Android is choices. I can't imagine myself being tied to Apple and be powerless over...

    Panda Chameleon

    I am loving my 2XL, but I think I should have settled for the Black version. I placed my phone on top of a yellow cutting board and now I have a yellow smudge on the white back side where it made contact with the board that I failed to remove with a slightly wet cloth so far. The cutting board...

    My First Impressions

    Yup that's something I just have to get used to again. I thought smart backlight was already a standard feature on fall flagship phones.

    My First Impressions

    I had, or rather still have xperia Z5 compact and it has fingerprint sensor located in the most convenient spot even (at least for me) - the power button itself on the right side.

    My First Impressions

    Just received my 2XL, and coming from am Xperia compact, I am silently thinking to myself "what have I done? :(" in the first 10 mins : 1. This phone needs a case and screen protector! The curved glass is extremely prone to scratching the edges especially with frequent pulling out from your...

    New Phone, New Questions

    Just wait for the updates or call support. We shouldn't be expected to manually install APKs on a 1K euro phone. Everything should work out of the box or at least after initial updates.
