Lol funny i just upgraded from an iphone 5s to a pixel 2 two months ago. Because i was scaptical with Android i wanted the pure Android experiance and the pixel 2 turned out to be an excellent upgrade. It was hard the first 2 weeks to adapt to Android and leaving Apples eco system was very hard too. But i got the phone for an unbeatable price and its indeed an awesome phone.

The pixel 2 is good, it’s not as exciting as the iPhone X or stunning but for the money it’s just as good, the iPhone X is overhyped while the pixel 2 is underrated. Overall the pixel 2 is better in my opinion in some ways.

damn right just used the pixel 1 on oreo 8.1 and it was just fantastic better than Samsung and Apple phones

What is that? A Google advertisement video? You only give us less then 50% of the truth. What about: Ecosystem? sell the phone after two years? Update policy? ...

What a painful video to watch. Regardless of whether it is sponsored or not, the way it was filmed, the acting - all just awful.
Just do a normal comparison video. Ffs

This guy comes off as a bad car salesman, lol. The only concrete advantages he gives are the price and included quick charger, and we should just "trust him" that Android Oreo and the camera are better. Also, it doesn't help that he's putting the Pixel's huge bezels next to the iPhone's bezel-less display.

And btw, I'm a huge Google/Android/Samsung fan, but this wouldn't have swayed me to choose Android.

I should have been the one in this video, I'd be more genuine and enthusiastic... The pixel 2 is iconic but the guy did a bad job at showing us

sprint does not have the google pixel I like more pixel 😭

I've currently got the iPhone SE. Will keep it as long as possible. Would consider upgrading to the Pixel 3 if they implement wireless charging and waterproof the thing. Don't imagine I'll get another iPhone again. Very much done with iOS.

The software experience is more important than hardware. If you don’t like android no point in switch to a better spaced phone that you will hate to use

[besweeeet]

This is actually a well-done video. It basically comes down to being aware of other options as they really are getting better for people stuck in Apple's ecosystem.

You notice, no cuts in this video (good for the editor)

Still rocking my s8 and it's still going hard

[Arno]

Battery life is more than a enough reason to dominate iphone x....

[xdantelocox]

I think i want to switch my iPhone for a pixel 2 XL

[jayo]

Once the gloss wore off the iPhone x is revealed as a failure.

[asans]

I prefer android. But I still disliked this disgusting video.

Apple will slow down your phone once new phone release.

Had iPhone since 2010, switched to pixel 2 xl and am very very happy

I’d rather have a note 8 or s9. I like the screen better. Don’t care about the camera the difference isn’t all that worth it on the pixel 2.
