MkBHD Review

just watched it. great review. A very great take on the screen issue. He did not mention the burn in issue, probably filmed it before it got big. bottom line is, if you are ocd about the screen, get a note 8. haha.
 
17 minutes is longer than usual for him, but I think he gets to the heart of what's to love about the second generation of Pixels.

I think he hit that nail on the head.

Just FYI, he does mention the burn in. It's quite a bit later on in the video though.

I just watched this and then came to the forums and saw it was posted here. lol
Great content from MKBHD, as always.
 
I still need to watch it. On of the guys at AA I trust a lot. He usually has really good reviews and he saw no issues w/ the XL screen that would be deal breakers for most. Or at least that was his opinion. I believe I will share the same opinion.

Mkbhd always has good content. He's fair, and level headed about things. I kind of had a feeling he would like this phone. I wonder what Mr Mobile's review will be like? Pretty much every aspect of this phone is a homerun, except the screen.

Yeah I usually watch his reviews. I just haven't yet. Just got home from playing pool and relaxing .. but I will watch it soon :D.
 
Okay I watched it. Yep. He confirms along with the AA Reviewer I watch that yep it is a go :D.

Indeed. Excellent and concise review. Everyone who is on the fence about the Pixel 2 or 2XL should watch this.
 
So it seems this phone is not ideal for people who love sharing edited pictures on social media (especially Instagram). Like what he observed, he tried to edit a pic based on his preference and then it turns out to be over saturated on everyone else's screens. So how are you, as an Instagram addict going to adjust to that??

I agree. This review, I think, is one of the first after some of the reported "issues" with the 2 XL and I was really interested in his take. Like any reviewer it's just an opinion, but he's no sensationalist that's for sure.
 
Meanwhile BGR is having a field day about this Pixel screen issue. LOL

BGR is one of the most Pro-Apple and Anti-Android love-fests that I have ever seen. Their content is almost always biased in favor of apple and IMO cannot be taken seriously for any Android related content. The fact that they are having a field day with it wouldnt surprise me in the least.

Truth!
