Default OP5T Oxygen OS doesn't even come with pre-installed Allo. There is pre-installed Duo though, I really should give it a whirl. Does it really have better video quality than other video calling apps?

Allo ain't trash, it just didn't need to exist in the first place. I haven't used it since the first couple of months it came out, and that was mainly for the Google Assistant bot stuff.

How does oneplus5t camera compare to the old pixel xl?
Never had the Pixel XL but the 5T camera is solid. Portrait mode is excellent, it's focus is fast and consistent, and pics are true to life. Indoor and low light though is still not up to par as the $800-1000 phones. The 2nd camera in the 5T is suppose to be tuned for low light but because the tech is new and different from the 5 so I wonder how tuned it really is. Perhaps a future update will improve it but it's still limited in low light due to the lack of OIS.

How have people's Pixel 2's been with the crushed black issue? I want to get one but I'm concerned about the screen (non xl one).

Anyone else excited for the Honor 10? It could be a great alternative to the 5T but could be priced $100 cheaper. My Honor 8 was an extremely solid phone and gave me zero issues.

I actually wanted a mirco sd card slot, water IP 76, dual front facing stereo speakers I would drop 1000$ if oneplus 6 or T had this
The point of Oneplus is a phone that costs half of what the $1,000 phones cost. If you want what's on the $1,000 phones, buy one of the $1,000 phones.

For what you pay, the value of the OP5T is unsurpassed. You give up things like best camera and waterproofing. But you do get to keep a headphone jack so it's not all bad. And from my experience I have never seen a phone charge as fast as this phone charges. None of the $1,000 phones can touch the charging speed or battery life of the OP5T and these are things that matter in day-to-day use.

its my favorite phone out of the few ive owned. and i really hope the battery issue doesn't happen on the pixel 2. wasn't an issues on the first pixel as far as im aware.
The first Pixel didn't have the Nexus 6 battery issue, but I will say that my non-XL Pixel 1 has shit battery life now. It doesn't last a day with regular use. That, combined with the USB-C port shitting the bed, is why I decided to bite the bullet and do the Essential Sprint deal.

I will say I was really happy with the Pixel otherwise, but I just can't deal with a phone that requires a midday charge anymore.

Been using my work pixel 2 as my main for a few days to switch things up but can someone please explain why I'm getting not only duplicate notifications like 2 notifications at once for the same thing, but also repeating notifications. Ever since work I've been getting notifications every 5-10 mins for emails I read hours and hours ago. Non stop.

I'm hoping this is an oreo issue that will be resolved in 8.1. Other than that, still the best android phone.

The new Hulu UI redesign is baller as fuck. Shits all over Netflix IMO in terms of look. Obviously functionally they are similar.

I haven't gotten old notifications pop back up but I definitely had multiple instances of the same notification come up at the same time during my first day with the 2 xl. Hasn't happened since though

Is this normal for the pixel 2 xl? I don't remember my Nexus 6p doing this with light sources at night.... What is going on here?

Here's some images: https://imgur.com/gallery/Jj6OS

Edit: NVM... Just cleaned the lens, lol

My pixel XL 2 for some reason never went inactive last night and screen remained on.

yeah I googled the double notification sounds and seems lots of people got it and apparently it's being fixed in 8.1, we'll see. But not a lot of people mentioning the second issue though some are flagging it. Guess we'll see since 8.1 comes out today doesn't it.
