For the sake of clarification, my post was in jest, and not meant to be taken seriously.
I received some death threats from a few members with accusations of me being a far-right racist and Trump supporter. By no means, I am either.

Now it's JUST BLACK. Well, ok then, it's not even very black anymore. Now that they get rid of the 3.5mm jack as well, might as well not even have named colours anymore. | Honestly regardless of name most people will still just call it white, black, and blue.

lol not even one week in, widespread reports of display burn-in https://www.androidcentral.com/googl...xl-screen-burn
just checked my 7mo old XL...sure enough I see residuals from the soft keys
I really thought OLED has shaked this off...apparently not and still affected in TVs. Will have to baby my oled monitor even more. (super anal about not keeping things static on it) 20/7 Burn-In Test: OLED vs LCD VA vs LCD IPS | |

I got a chance to play with the smaller Pixel 2 at best buy and I would find it really hard to pay $900 for this phone when the S8 next to it pretty much blows it away in every aspect. I like stock Android but Google really needs to give their head a shake if they think this phone is worth $900.

No bugs yet. I'm still not a fan of the home screen design change. Battery life seems to be A LOT better though.

Battery life has been insane on my P2XL. I use 20% from 8am to 5pm and that includes over an hour of reddit/ig/yt/etc... while i'm on the bus.
On the first day I go the phone, I used it from 100% to 22% battery and it gave me over 6hrs of SoT.

^^ Is that Android / Google's problem though? Always thought it was manufacturers that determine the level of post-sales support you get on updates and stuff.

I don't actually know, but i think cause it's apple. All ios phones are sold/distributed by Apple. Granted a lot of things pay some sort of loyalty to Apple. For example, all non-cheap china shit cables have to pay Apple a loyalty.
Apple domination?

If you go to a store, how many manufacturers are selling Android devices? And Apple?

Once say Android have an update/firmware update which then gets pass onto the phone manfactures. They then add their own custom UI/features/apps/etc etc. Once the manfactures did that then they issue the update to their phones. Now if your phone is purchase through a carrier then the carrier receive the updates and they then add their own shit to it. Once they did that then the update is release to your phone. If you purchase your phone from manfacture or online (IE 1+5 FOR example where the phone gets sent to do directly)You get a OTA update. Since so many people are got their hands in it that's why it could take months or never for updates to arrive for the phones you purchase off your carrier.
Apple does it a bit differently. They control all their updates so they don't have to go through different manfactures/carriers.
