- An incredible piece of Android hardware, that falls just short of smartphone perfection. Michael Moore, 2018-01-08
Google has prided itself in releasing what it says are the leading Android smartphones with each new generation of its devices, and having used the Pixel 2 XL for a few weeks now, it's hard to argue.
Combining powerful and reliable hardware with the very latest and best version of Android makes the Pixel 2 XL a delight to use. Add in the ideal suite of workplace apps and services, an elegant design, and all-day battery life, and it really is a device that is hard to top.
It may be expensive (currently selling SIM-free in the UK from £799), but if you're in the market for a truly high-end Android smartphone that is a joy to use, the Google Pixel 2 XL may be just what you're looking for.
PROS
- Slim and stylish design
- Excellent battery life
- Latest Android build and tools
- Full integration with Google workplace suite
CONS
- Screen issues still a worry
- Expensive
- Pixel 2 XL long-term review: Has the screen improved? Max Parker, 2018-03-02
It might not be the best Android phone available in every area, but the Google Pixel 2 XL is the one I would buy. It has a stunning camera, the best version of Android and I love the texture Google has put over the metal back.
The Samsung Galaxy S8 and LG V30 both have more features and the OnePlus 5 is a lot cheaper, but the Google Pixel 2 XL shines when you actually use it. Take a picture with it and you’ll forgive the lack of a headphone jack, or the odd front bezel.
My only major criticism is the display. LG’s OLED panel is dull and muted and that’s a shame. Still, this is easily one of the best phones of the year.
Pros- Stunning camera
- The best version of Android
- Minimal bezel
- Feels great to hold
Cons
- Lifeless screen
- A really impressive smartphone with an absolutely killer camera Cameron Faulkner, 2018-03-09
FOR
- Smart software that will only get better
- Confident design
- The very best smartphone camera
AGAINST
- No 3.5mm headphone port
- Expensive
- Poor viewing angles for an OLED
The Google Pixel 2 XL is the ideal smartphone for the entertainment fanatic who craves big screens for movies and gaming, forward-thinking, slim bezel-clad design and of course, photography.
It’s also quite a fashionable phone, launching alongside several “Made for Google” accessories that really bring it to life.
You really need to want the best on the market in certain areas to justify the cost of this phone. The person that prides performance over value will enjoy what's on offer here, as there are better phones on paper to go for.
But if you just want a phone that's big, powerful and will take photos that regularly make you think 'wow', then this is the phone for you.
