Pixel 2 XL Impressions

* Haven’t reached for iPhone often
* Still getting set up
* Snappy, but not without jank in spots
* Some app equivalents seem to be snappier (fewer frame drops)
* Fantastically better Notification Center
* Selfie Portrait mode test
* Scroll perf is generally better than iOS
* Scroll velocity taking some getting used to
* Slight text ghosting on scrolls?
* Front-facing Speakers are stellar
* Haven’t been perturbed by color casting, saturation
* Smart lock will be handy
* Wish more info showed up on Always On display
* Assistant doesn’t start music well right now
* Landscape keyboard stretched
* Discord (and other apps) have fewer refreshes)
* Would appreciate different textures on side buttons
* Not sold on Pixel Launcher over others yet
