The Honor V10 might be the one to take a look at.

OP, have you found an Honor 8 replacement yet?

Still looking forward to seeing what features Moto will bring in 2018. As of now, this question has gotten tougher and tougher the more I think about it. The only thing I miss in the Honor 8 is an FM radio, but what I'd miss more than that, which many other phones don't have, is the customizable notification LED. I can glance down at my phone and know if I have a message from a close friend or family member, casual friend, the staff I supervise, or my team of supervisors, simply based on the LED colors I've assigned those groups (in Textra, that is). I don't want to give that up!

I definitely understand how you feel. I use Textra as well and have the LED to flash different colours for different people. With regards to the Pixel 2 series, I know you can turn off the AOD and turn the LED on, to enable LED-style notifications. It is certainly nice to have choice when it comes to how you want to view notifications.

I do find it odd that it doesn't have fm radio. Wonder if it has to do with the chip set

Can you use the led and aod simultaneously on the Pixel 2?

Good question! I'm not sure. Although that would definitely be the best of both worlds!

I would hope so. I find both useful.
