Is the pixel 2 xl's display the same as v30?

[BenP84]

I can live with a screen that is overall tinted slightly red, yellow, blue, etc (SLIGHTLY being the keyword here), all screens are not created nor calibrated equal. As long as it's an even tint and is a minor / barely noticeable one, I will get acustomed to it.
What I can't live with is the color change when even a slight change in viewing angle occurs (which seems to be the case with some Pixel 2 XL). My Nexus 6P did this and even after 9 months of usage it was still bugging me a lot. If more people could confirm what they see in terms of change in color at different viewing angles with in store or review units, would really appreciate.

From Kevin The Tech Ninja’s Twitter. I really need to go see these screens for myself in person.

The screen temp of the note is completely wrong. Totally too far on the blue side of things.

New Verge article on the display. Vlad says not as bad as V30 in comments, but still bad.

Saw that.

Found this the most interesting:

"Then there’s the matter of the color accuracy and saturation of the 2 XL. Here’s Google’s position on the matter:

"We designed the Pixel display to have a more natural and accurate rendition of colors this year but we know some people prefer more vivid colors so we've added an option to boost colors by 10% for a more saturated display. We're always looking at people's responses to Pixel and we will look at adding more color options through a software update if we see a lot of feedback."
The Verge’s Creative Director James Bareham sides with Google on this, describing the Pixel 2 XL as the phone screen tuned most closely to professional displays: “it presents natural colors in terms of photos, but is a little dark,” he says. But here’s the real problem: James uses truly pro equipment that nobody is trying to sell to consumers; what he thinks of as accurate, what might technically be accurate, is not what the majority of us see on most of the devices we use."​

So where to we sign up for feedback? Kidding for now. We'll see if I notice anything when my device arrives ..

Due to many topics going on about this same issue I am closing this thread and linking to one I just made. This will help it be a one-stop-shop for all discussions about the screen versus a bunch of threads all discussing the same topic .
