- Customize your phone HERE: dbrand.com/rev... Thanks to dbrand for sponsoring this video. The Pixel 2 has arrived on my desk. Which is probably the last place a cell phone wants to be. I will be performing a series of durability tests on this poor pixel. We will see what the 'kinda blue' color is made out of, and if the hybrid coating announced with the google pixel is metal or not.
HERE Is the pixel 2 XL durability test: • Pixel 2 XL Durability ...
Do you care about the extra features that Google Didnt include with their new phone? Let me know in the comments!

You are the most polite and educated roaster I've ever heard of
Facundo Reynoso but he is right though if the company that makes the os is making a phone it had better be the standard for years to come...this does not seem worth it at the base of 649
A gentlemen's roast is always the most effective, because it's value hangs on the contents instead of the delivery. In other words, well said sir.
Facundo Reynoso true.
I wanted to like your comment to move it from 666 to 667
He should roast Trump

Funny how they dissed Apple over the headphone Jack last year but then do the exact same thing...
EDIT: I’m not saying it’s a good idea on any device, what I am saying is that the irony is fantastic
For those of you who like to complicate your music listening experience.
BobinFlobo way to stick it to the man Google lol
Is it new for people to diss apple and then do exactly what they do?
Dude you cant even say that the AI thing is new for that phone because soon all and better android phones will have it, heck even iphones will have (Assistant is on the iphone and so is other google software). This seems to me like a half ass phone to copy the iphone. If google want to get into the phone business, they should have suck with the Google edition phones they had a few yrs ago (like the samsung and htc phones before, imagine a google edition v30 or s8/note 8)
BobinFlobo iPhone will get way more attention since it's fan base is much much bigger so no surprise for me. I'm sure people don't like this about the pixel but you just don't hear it as much cause it's not that as popular as iPhone.
Next time do a bend test of a Snickers bar just taken out of the fridge.
Nel Tech he will bend his fingers doing that
I don't laugh often from a comment hahahaha
MichelZelf me too lol
Laughing out of hell 😂😂😂
Funny how I searched for this and it wasn't in the search results...
Funny....
It's like Google *doesn't want us to see this...*
Beard_Grizzly do you seriously think they manually removed his videos from search? Really?
It was more meant as a joke, but...
Carry on >.>
its actually on trending
Kyle Rego are you implying that they haven't censored youtubers and search results?
Beard_Grizzly hahahahahahaha
The way he talks makes him sound like a serial killer. When he’s really just a serial phone killer...

U are absolutely the ONLY person I've seen complain about this phone.
Ally Reed i hate it to, no sd card, no qi charger, no headphone jack. Its inferior to the note 8
Gandalfwiz2007 it's cool that you were trying to agree with me but I think you misunderstood my comment. I have this phone and I absolutely love it both the Note 8 and the Google pixel to have ups and downs and disadvantages to each other but all in all I much prefer the pure Android of the Google pixel the camera is much better than the Note 8 which my aunt has and she likes to take pictures with my phone more anyway, I'm not trying to argue with you just simply telling you why I prefer the Google pixel 2 XL it's a really really good phone and I personally love it and have had for about 2 months
Ally Reed as you got the phone and paid nearly 1k for it I'm gonna have to write that down as a clear bias. Opinions from someone who invested in it as much as you did aren't that valuable I'm afraid.
Its a good phone but the advantages you name can be had for far less money and you know it. I'm being a bit of a hypocrite though as my Google pixel 2 XL is coming in tomorrow :).
Gandalfwiz2007 holy Fuck man you know how bad the note 8 is?!
Daan Drijver 1k??? Dude you are way off
This phone is a disappointment. That primer was terrible on the LG G5 and it's terrible here as well. No headphone jack, no wireless charging or expandable memory? What the fuck Google?
Arc they want you to embrace the so called "future"
Google drive,bluetooth headphones
dont forget AI
Arc // and it's broken!! It cracked!!!!!!
WTF
The main reason why a lot of phone does not have expandable memory is because the speed.. the built in UFS or EMMC storage's speed (and stability) can't be compared with a cheap, fake SanDisk memory card that you bought from Ali
samsung master race samsunbg is superipr in every way and is cheaper
So not shelf of shame... But maybe desk of disappointment.
it definitely should be on the shelf of shame
This video is telling me that the pixel 2 is crap
hello you are correct
It's over hyped by many other youtubers. It's a solid android but it's missing many important features that other android warships have. Like the Note 8 and V30
JayP Saravia *flagships lol not warships
ratziboi I like warships better
JayP Saravia v30 doesnt have front facing speakers
I got a Pixel 2 ad before this video.
Neat timing.
Please make a video on the Pixel 2 XL, it is made by LG, while this one is by HTC. It would be interesting to see if there are differences in build quality.
Helio H. I agree this needs to be done. Man I’m really on the verge of canceling my order.
Now I understand why the XL looks exactly same as a G6!
Raúl Leyva nah, don't.
i agree. I'm wondering if the pixel XL will be any different at the bend test. Also I'm kinda wondering if that coating while not great at scratches might help somewhat in a drop test
Exactly I am waiting for the XL durability test video and since they are manufactured by different manufacturers, it makes complete sense to make a separate video for the XL variant
They spent all the engineering budget on advertising
Gustavo Ferlizi “Ok guys, how do we make fun of apple this year?”
“Uhm, sir, shouldn’t we focusing on the phone instead?”
“Shut this nonsense! We need some jokes about iphone!”
Dracogame Actually I would say they focused on the software? I mean obviously the "design" of the pixel 2 XL is better and they have better screens and cameras, but the Software was always the reason why people liked Pixel in the first place...
Stup ID yeah its software vs hardware at this point
They diss Apple for removing the headphone jack last year and then follow suit immediately after... I buy a phone for it's usefulness and features. Not being trendy and "cool"
So has almost every other phone manufacturer other than Samsung and LG
LG and Samsung will do it too, so shut up.
I mean I charge my phone before I put the headphones in so I don't really care about it
Nah..man Samsung won't They have never followed anyone really.If the note 8 was a bit wider like the 7 I would buy in a heartbeat
Do you really think Laptops are going to start omitting the headphone jack? I doubt it, if so then that'd be the dumbest decision of recent times. It's literally the port i use most, more than I charge it... It's a convenience.
I love how wireless charging was cool in 2013, and then died out because it was basically a fad, but as soon as Apple puts it in an iPhone, everybody thinks every phone HAS to have it now. My Droid Maxx has wireless charging and in 2018, i still don't use it.
The Brain
It's especially weird considering how all the iSheeps were making fun of the Pixel about it...
Haha i tried to but just can't wired charging forever!
Amar Zulhakimi Aminudin
Yeah, wireless charging is pretty convenient. Plus, it kinda feels cool.
The Brain Samsung actually restarted that trend. With the s6 or s7 I don’t remember
Aidan92957
I think it was the S6 actually. It was the first glass backed Samsung that supported the standard
Anyone else watching on a pixel 2
I am my dude
Indeed I am.
I am. And scared as shit now.
shashwat panda Why? With how many Pixels Google has sold it shouldn't be that terrifying
The Creeper Universe - HD Gaming And More! True.. but this vid kinda stings subconsciously. Esp when it cracks at the antenna line. M franctically searching for good cases (available in India) for pixel 2 now-Initially I didn't want to clutter 'that' look..
Also, I have this exact same colour -"kinda blue"
*Pixel uses primer exterior* Everyone: "It's a masterpiece!"
*LG uses primer exterior* Everyone: "Ew what the hell is this garbage?"
UnPhayzable it might be because it does feel different. Like getting a phone with a metal back won't feel like a another phone with a metal back. It might be one of those things.
UnPhayzable so true brother.
UnPhayzable you know the pixel 2 and pixel 2 xl are made by LG
BTICronox power button at the back is the worst idea i have ever seen
D1mj28 well the bigger one is made by LG and the smaller one is made by HTC. But it doesn't matter since it is designed completely by Google, means Google decided how and with what the phone is made..
This is the first negative video I have seen about the pixel
Henry Murr finally an honest youtuber. The Pixel is over hyped
Henry Murr there's more about the screen on the XL
Henry Murr not negative, but realistic
i thought it was bad when it was first announced, its lacking so much
Makalon102 like what? Jack and wireless charging? Wow, so crap.
ArtClassWithJerry!!!!!! Finally!!
A_Don786 his name is Zack.
It is what zack calls it
Watch the video and see what he calls it.
Where o buy your blade
A_Don786 finely!!!!!!
Watching this on a pixel 2 trying to see how carful I should be with it
Harry_p15 lol same. I just recently got mine.
You have now mentally scarred your pixel 2
Saaame
yes
Watching this on a pixel 3 XL
They made fun of Apple and now this phone is literally worse than any iPhone. Good job Google
Zoltán Béres They didn't make fun of Apple, they made you think they made fun of Apple.
Remember, all companies are the same.
Zoltán Béres no it's not. Not even close to an iPhone. Lmao. He did a durability test not a phone test. It still slaughters iPhone.
Garrett Stewart how tf does it slaughter the iphone? It lacks wireless charging, its chipset is nowhere near the iphone's chip, it lacks the AI and AR capabilities the i8, it cant record at 1080p 240fps or 4k 60fps and it feels far cheaper than the iphone 8. This pixel phone is an abomination to android, it pure utter shit.
I like android better and have an s8 but if i had to choose another option id choose iphone
San Mattew Google Assistant is way ahead of Siri, so not sure what you mean by AI. On the other hand, this phone provides a clean Google experience. That's what it's selling. The specs are admittedly not great, and it's overpriced, but the experience it offers is worth it. Better than *shudders* TouchWiz and Edge Display.
Oh also, I can understand complaining about 1080p240 and the headphone jack, but wireless charging and IP68?? Is it really that difficult to connect a charging cable? And IP67 isn't even that different from IP68. Dual cameras? The only advantage they have over the Pixel is zoom; Pixel's bokeh is better. Let's not forget the Pixel has Google Lens, unlimited storage and stereo speakers.
Yes, it's definitely overpriced, but it's not that much worse in terms of features.
Google dissed Apple for removing the headphone jack last year, yet they did the same this year.
Google dissed everyone else for adding secondary cameras ... how much do you wanna bet that the Pixel 3 will have a dual camera?
It won't. They'll set aside that feature for the larger Pixel 3 XL.
Yeah all bad ideas are from Apple.
for your info pixel 2 xl makes better photos than any dual camera setup .......they emulate all the features with software and AI except zoom also has the better stability than any phone
mounorman portrait mode is trash on pixel
lol, the portrait mode is better then on the most dual cam phone
Funny how the pixel 2 has a kinda blue body and the 2xl has a kinda blue screen..😂😂
SALO or The 120 Days of Sodom: I can't eat rice with my hands like this... Then eat Isht!
Ouchhhhh lmao!
Wonder how Apple x too has a kinda blue screen now :D :D
Now start ass wiping the oled of Apple x too :P
Chandraprakash G maybe yours does 😂
my poor phone! I knew it would be torture watching but damn, those comments hurt more though -__-
Is it truely this fragile to bends?
Thank you zack for standing up for the jack.
When most of the youtubers starting to accept the nonsensical decision we are definitely going to vote with our wallet.
Elliot Farrel Haha. Zack stands up for the jack. Great slogan! He should use that one.
Most other youtubers are afraid to go against not having a headphone jack or else they wont get a free review unit
Outdated technologies have to die and just because some people don't wanna let go doesn't mean we stop innovating. You'll get screwed over next year and you deserve to.
He actually acknowledged that it was dying out
@@felixtessel136 removing a feature that almost everyone still uses just because it's old isn't innovation.
Everything changes when your focus is purely on hardware....nice video dude 👍
No headphone jack = not getting my money
Jonas Hirt what money?
They even made an ad making fun of the iPhone 7 not having it only to have them turn around and remove it on the Pixel 2.
Simple, bro... Same here
are you fucks in the 13th century or some shit? the headphone jack is fucking dead, get with the times bitch
Jonas Hirt then r.i.p phones because it's being killed
I did draw a pumpkin though, that's pretty cool 😂😂😂
Disappointed 😕😔
Good thing my fingers aren't razors
RUTTnBAM the test is for if you leave your phone with keys or pens in your pocket
I always keep my keys in the same pocket as the phone, among other things. I don't want a phone cat can scratch from that. Or break as easily. My current phone was dropped countless times and does not have a scratch, without any kind of casing.
Ny'alotha wut phone do u have?
Currently a Nokia Lumia 630. But I want to get an Android based phone next month. This phone is still working as it was on day one. It has 3 years. But lack of apps on Windows phone is making me change.
Of course it doesn't have any damage! It's a Nokia!
"I did draw a pumpkin though, so that's kinda cool..." 😂😂😂
Ugith Dahanayaka 1.5 weeks too early...
To be practical, IP67 and IP68 are not very much different at all. It's not water proof, meaning whether you take it in 1m(ip67) depth or 1.5m(ip68) depth water, chances are it may not survive in either case.
8 years ago: *DROID DOES*
2017: *Pixel 2 DOES NOT*
szradwan why didn't you say just 2009
Also Droid is Motorola... Which isn't Android or Google...
Couldn't math
Android is at least 5 years behind Apple 🍎
smells like "genesis does what nintendon't"
hey zach will there be a video for the pixel 2 xl version ?
Shame on you google!!!
Milan Jovanovic what's so bad about Google? They'restealing everyone's information?
Everyting you said is true.
While they do censor some stuff in autocomplete (mostly due to the probably innapropiate and criminal results it may have, like 'murder', or 'rape') you can still workaround to access thus information, But yes, they should be completely transparent with their information, they're the source of research for 90% of people with access to the internet. Just because they have it doesn't mean it's true.
However, an observation:
I'm pretty sure murdering anyone that works for Google (thousands) is WAY worse than Google's censorship.
Milan Jovanovic YOU KOMUNIS ☭? I HATE YOU
As a Software Company they are the best! They shouldn't had teamed up with Htc to manufacture this stupid thing
Milan Jovanovic Shut Up! Your complaining like you've done something great.
Thanks I won't buy this and stick with my old pixel
Hello this is you from the future and you have bought the exact same model.
No Profile Pic 😂
@@ys0456 nice
What a joke of a phone
Currently using one rn lmao
Damn this is disappointing.
Specially that weak point.. feels like with only just one flick and the water resistant is gone
:(
NiftyTheLynx Google pixel 1 is better than pixel 2
when you get the pixel 2 ad before watching the pixel 2 durability test
the pixel 2 ads get on my nerves
I have youtube red so I don't have to go through your suffering
Its hurt but not bleeding
will !! Why did this happen to me
john doe - Yeah, but that phone was cheaper too.
For $850, we should expect something better.
Pure Android, superb camera, water resistance, small form factor (subjective, I like it) and far less price than the iPhone X (since we're comparing flagships). I'd go for this anyday. My 6 plus has slowed to a crawl :(
Farhad Tarapore Why did you write water resistance as a feature? Every major phone has that so it’s no longer a feature. Why don’t you add “can make calls” to your list of things only the Pixel can do 😂
@@Fajowski50 Dude this comment is 8 months old...
jack 8 months ago most flagships were water resistant too lol
@@ritzbittz Yeah I know, it's just pointless to try and reply to a comment that old, I'm not disagreeing.
@@Fajowski50 One Plus 6 doesn't have water resistance
Wow.. they should really fear your videos. Goodbye pixel2
not really, I love my 6P and no durability video has made it trash for me
Goodbye? Still pre-ordered the 2 XL. I don't plan on taking a knife to it or intentionally trying to bend it in half, so it should be perfectly fine. Especially if I put a case on it like I have with every phone I've ever owned.
Brandon Johnson Even if yoy manage to get over the pathetic durability, you still cannot make up for the outdated screen design with massive bezels, limited memory, lack of headphone jack and wireless charging; some gotta-have android flagship features.
Brandon Johnson There's always the chance you may hold your lighter to it for 15 seconds. Better think carefully.
Layth Alkhaer Haven't used a headphone jack in years, the bezels on the XL are very small for a phone with squeezable sides and front facing stereo speakers, I wouldn't use wireless charging when fast charging is available, and there's plenty of memory.
As soon as I saw this vid all I could think of its you roasting google for removing the headphone jack
Bring Back NEXUS you pixelheads!!!
You forgot "with deeper grooves at level 7"
What a cheap expensive phone!
Ryan Peña hmmm
Right? Was excited when this was first announced, but at those prices the hardware should not be this poor! Also, the screen on the 2XL is apparently quite sub par with blue discolourations at any angle but head on.
Nicolas Vollmer i was excited also. A great build quality was expected on this phone. Let's hope the XL is different
I fear that it won't be... Maybe the antenna lines are different, so the bend test won't be so bad, but the body would still be this plastic/paint, the fingerprint scanner would still be this plastic one like here that gives up when scratched - google likely ordered these parts equally for both models.
The screen on the XL however is apparently a huge disappointment, with washed out colours and a bad case of off-colour viewing angles, as reported on The Verge.
Wow, Google... I had such faith in you... Why would you do this to us!?😢
Thanks for the video, Zack! ☺
The Pixel 2 XL is brilliant. No one buys 2 non-XL anyways.
Yah they teamed with Htc to build this thing...Google should have teamed with Sony. Sony's build quality + Google Software will be the best!
faight lost when Project Ara crashed.
Saran Bodeddula Both? Its just a rumour i think so. Htc made em both
Saran Bodeddula Nope, HTC made the Pixel 2, LG made the Pixel 2 XL.
Let's just make this video viral so Google can see this and make a better Pixel next year hopefully :(
Meet Dagar seems like.google has already seen the video because I don't get any ads for it, so maybe they demonized it to punish Zack for having a bad review
marco köhler lol
I agree. Tho I'm a pixel lover, i dont like the way it looks and its durability
And please google, don't forget the headphone jack anymore
The Pixel XL is totally different and will be better
"Droid does but this phone does not"
I laughed 😂
It's about time someone with leverage actually spoke about how disappointing the Pixel 2 line is. It's just not what it should be
James Quatum All he could complain about was the durability, get a case, or a skin like he recommended, and people dont want the v30 as they want simple stock android, all the other reviewers love it like marques brownlee who has 4 times his subscribers. I'm
Joe Smith Having more subscribers means his opinion matters more, does it?
Zack brings real life pragmatism back to judging technology. He shows us the actual flaws of the new Pixel, while other tech enthusiasts simply cannot stop fawning over the new Pixels.
Debanjan Paul yeah, because some people like me doesn't care about wireless charging and ip 68.
Dominik Seljan get an iphone then. Its faster than the pixel 2.
A case won't fix lack of headphone jack or wireless charging, and probably won't fix that poor waterproofing, this is a sorry excuse for a phone.
SuperFroakie Poor waterproofing? So you can’t go one and a half meters only one lol and you could get a water resistance case too. They make dongles for headphone jacks and you even get one for free. Funny thing is, my iPhone 8 plus sounds better through the adapter than my pixels 3.5 mm jack. And wireless charging? Convenient, but completely unnecessary. You know what doesn’t fix bad software? Wireless charging and headphone jacks - looking at you Samsung and LG.
Joseph Rego I'm happy with my Xperia XZs.
It has an headphone jack and a camera with settings you can actually use. The pixel is basically on par with my 2013 original Xperia Z if it was running Oreo.
Pixel 2 👎most disappointing pixel/nexus to date
Ryan_23 This proves that Google is only good at Software. Google should had teamed up with Sony for manufacturing their phones instead of relying on Htc.
I've been wanting this for an age! A Sony Nexus was a dream, now a very dead dream :(
Please make durability test of Moto g5s plus
Art glass with Jerry😂

You’re correcting him even though he does say art class with Jerry

My Nexus 5X is built better than this thing.
Except for the bootlo
Kasim Hussain it's also from LG so it sucks
clever...
Michael Janicki you suck
5x build quality is ok but nothing too great. There was wear on soft plastic backpanel even tho it wasnt even a year old. Had my original moto g with similar backpanel and it still looks great. Also there is some weird squeek in one corner like something is bit loose. Some thermal issues aswell and not too great loudspeaker. And the main issue with 5x is hardware bootloop issue. Still tho best phone i have had this far but thanks to bootloop issue will be last LG.
BUT 5x also costs way less. For this sort of money as pixel 2 goes its shit...
Nexus 6P user here. My phone dies at 50% sometimes 60%. Just holding out another month til I get the Pixel 2XL
Looks like zack changed my mind from buying a pixel. I am a hardware guy too and I need well built phone.
Naef Ahmed All that happened was that the paint cracked and scratches slightly easier than bare aluminum
Techlord Really, I get parinoid if I see a crack on my phone, A CRACK?!?! I have the V30 and I can swim with it, sit on it and listen to music while charging my phone, 3 practical things the pixel 2 cant do. Just a crack, psh, fangirl much?
It wasn't even just the paint itself that cracked, it ruined the water resistance which isn't even top of the line water resistance either.
Brandon Burslie Your phone also has a meh display, worse software
Brandon Burslie You can do all three things of that. Do you really just listen to one person and believe everything he says? You are an idiot. That IP67 just makes a difference of 50cm and I don't think that you will swim 1.5m under sea.
2 years later and pixel 4 still break at the same spot :)
I like the Fun Facts you Tell us when you are about to scatch the back. 👌😁
Do the Pixel 2 XL too!
Yay. I was waiting for this durability test. :)
"I did draw a pumpkin though. So that's kinda cool."
HAHAHA
Nice video sir, the flex test concerns me somewhat. The scratch test doesn't affect me so much since I "insure" my phones with a case anyway but good to know for those going commando. Sure seems to be a lot of hate going on for this phone right now. As an owner of one I have to say it is fantastic so far, battery life, responsiveness, by far best camera on a phone I've ever used. The screen to size ratio is very pleasing to me, I actually like to have some bezel call me crazy. Everything on the phone flies so far and I am eager to see how much better the camera will be once Google turns on their own chip on this baby. To all of you on the fence because of the people out there picking on things that bother them personally (many times without ever trying it themselves, some call that envy), I'd say give it a chance for yourself. Don't buy into other people's opinions about what you should or shouldn't like in life.
ThreeMilePilot i like you
Watching on my Pixel 2, and I fucking love it
I have a 2xl and agree with this completely. Some of the nitpicking has been ridiculous, especially complaining about the blue screen tint when the phone is tilted. A complete non issue.
Can you try remove the plastic coating on the back to expose the metal? With some sort of solvent? Would be cool.
Zabo that's actually a good idea
I hope he sees it.
They made fun of the iphone 7 last year for not having the headphone jack, and what do they do the year after? Take out the headphone jack of cause!
+Techlord Someone's triggered... It obviously was a typo that got autocorrected...
that's the same phone i'm holding right now wow
Could you also do the 2 XL? It is built by a different company isn't it?
The small one is built by htc
The xl version is built by lg
I agree would be interesting to see a 2 xl test. Most may be similar, but the body and fit and finish are better and may provide better strength in the bend.
Hey Zack test Xiaomi Mi A1or Mi5X please!
yes please Xiaomi Mi A1 @JerryRigEverything !!! thanks

Please do the Samsung galaxy s8 active
Yeah, Jerry!
5:41 and 6:04 I completely agree with Zack
Aaqil Ali YOUR PROFILE PICTURE!!!
meh stop bitching, the headphone jack is a gimmick
Constantiam dot net sorry i just want to use my expensive headphones while charging, without buying a third party adapter. But hey your loss.
Same
I love the headphone jack, but the incentives of Fi for my ever changing life are too much to pass up on. I went with a Pixel 2 XL for guaranteed support of all features on the network, and it's not a disappointing phone at all.
"Kinda blue"
But "Kinda shitty for the price" too.
TessellatedGuy lol, why are you right.
How is it shitty?
Nice phone.. Thanks for rigging, but physically it is not so good
Ria Dutta but it's overhyped and not value for money 😶
Ak kr after watching this, you're right.
The note and the lg v30 are the two kings for android rn
They should learn something from the surface line-up of Microsoft. Google's design sucks big time.
Blue Jeans plus they think people r fool, and making the phone costly will give them sales. FUCK PIXEL
Fuck pixel man. I miss my Nexus brand...
ibol13 why?
nexus 5 was the best, cheap, well made, smoothed android experience I ever had, once I change the firmware an overclock alittle bit and a dude says, damm your phone flies which brand is it? most epic moment in my life
"The end of the headphone Jack era"
Dang, the world finna end
All phone manufacturers should take into account the zack's test before they even think about making new phone. Wow, google pixel 2 is a failure for sure.
Deepak Dangol I totally disagree, that's where manufacturers go wrong, trying to please all these youtube blog reviewer's. Some test & reviewers are relevant and some are dumb, like who is going to burn their phone screen, etc. Antenna lines appear to be badly placed allowing a slight bending on one side but he doesn't verify if only the plastic coating cracked or did the metal underneath also break. Then says it may allow water in but no test is done for that.
Yeah sure. You realize his videos probably have basically 0% effect on their sales right? They can care less what he does/says.
Cal C pretty much, I was once in an attraction and the safety things (how you call it) pressed so fucking hard on my phone and leg I thought my phone was going to break. Luckily I have an ZTE axon 7 full metal body, but I have the feeling this thing (google pixel) would break apart.
Literally more than half the things good about the pixel 2 is software, wireless charging is overrated, literally the headphone and the bendability are the only things to be somewhat concerned about, his review is trash lol
Ishmeet Tuteja headphone jack actually helps the phone, as using the charging port for charging and listening to music destroys it twice as fast. If you use bluetooth headphones, it will drain the battery so the headphone jack is actually pretty important, at least to me it is
"I drew a pumpkin, so that's good though" that made me laugh 😂
August McClellan "that's kinda good"
August McClellan same it made me spit out my Ramen
Thank you Zack!! For speaking your mind and giving your two cents. Android has always been about Versatile feature-rich devices!!!
Get these iClones outta here!!!
Such an interesting and informative videos and such a pleasant voice, why haven't I subscribed earlier?!
i really doubt nokia, sony, samsung and LG will stop making phones with headphone jacks. specially sony because they sell tons of wired headphones every minute. the headphone jack and dedicated camera button is enough for me to own one
This video proves that Google is only good at Software. Google should had teamed up with Sony for manufacturing their phones instead of relying on Htc.
I’ll never do any of this shit or the tear down stuff but I’ve still watched like 20 of your videos this week wtf is wrong with me
Its his voice.
Google has to hire Zack as their "hardware durability tester" to make sure Pixel 3 is better.
It killed me when he ripped off the plastic
Pixel 2 is going backwards in functions and evolution, stupid-ass phone
Know right. Note 8 and V30 are the best Android phones right now, Pixel 2 is as bad as the Essential Phone and buildt like Nexus 6p.
But after a few years Pixel 2 will run smooth as butter while the Note 8 and V30 will run like garbage.
neirad537 this.
In a perfect world I would not sacrifice neither, but I will take a better software over Hardware, even if I still can't get over the non 3.5 mm because it doesn't take any space nor cost that much.
But give me a butter smooth experience and a great camera over SD card, wireless charging etc.
neirad537 Really? Exept the fact that they removed the 3,5mm jack to move on to the future, the phone is kinda dated. Wireless charging pads will be everywhere soon, and they are getting faster as well. Bluetooth is just not good enough yet.
I'm disappointed Google 😞
Glass reinforced Nylon is as strong as 6061 aluminium, and I bet in that case it would be stronger because no paint would take up its thickness.

Pixel 2 : So I'm ready to be unboxed and function diligently
Razor blade and lighter : Hey first pass your fitness exam dude
So, a droid becomes a pumpkin...😂... Google's hardware design team needs to be fired with immediate effect...
Stanley Sandeep they just bought HTC phone division with included 2000 engineers give em a gen or two
Whenever he scratches the back it reminds me of scratching a lotto ticket lol
that's an expensive lottery ticket
Zack, you have great sense of humour .
And TH-cam algoritham has brougt us all together
Will you do a google pixel XL review.
I think its important that he does. The pixel and pixel xl are manufactured by two different companies.
This is basically an android iPhone, but without the iPhones good qualities. Kinda dissapointed in google.
Definitely true!
Didn‘t know that any iPhone had ever good Quality (using an iP7 rn) working in a repair store gave me another aspect with these huge fault rates.
Does the pixel 2 XL bend the same way?
I have a Google pixel 2 and I'm saying this with my Google pixel 2
Well, after just getting my Pixel 2 XL in the mail yesterday, I couldn't help but cringe at certain aspects of this video.
Don't sit on it is the main thing. Are you really going to trash your phone by putting keys with it? Metal phones also scratch. Glass phones shatter. Looked after phones generally don't have a problem!
He bent the 2, not the XL. Perhaps antenna placement is different. Otherwise, bend test if the only bummer, everything else is nth degree situation stuff.
OMG I cringed when you took the plastic off like that😖😄
Gamer_Christian O5 are you new here buddy?😋
Google is a software company, not a hardware company. And it sure shows didn't it?
The pixel 1 is not as bad as this one though
But they did quite impressive with the first pixel
HTC made the phone. They know better. I got a feeling Google didn't give them enough room to move. I also think they brought out the phone too early.
Idk how Google Managed to make such Ugly Looking Phones...
This is the regular Pixel 2 made by HTC, not the XL made by LG.
Seems most people aren't realizing this since the beginning and comparing the 2 as if the 2 XL is the same or at least synonymous when talking about the "Pixel 2"
This parent comment should be at the top or the least in the video description. I would like to see a 2 XL test.
What
Lance Stinson The Pixel 2 and the Pixel 2 XL are manufactured by different companies, as Google doesn't make hardware. The regular sized version is produced by HTC, and the XL by LG.
Also, Samsung provides the display for the Pixel 2 and LG for the XL. I repair devices for Google and LG is one of the reasons why the XL is having issues.
Both are shit
I'm gonna skip the pixel 2
This proves that Google is only good at Software. Google should had teamed up with Sony for manufacturing their phones.
Joshuva J Antony last year Google was a really great phone
Really like your channel! Simple but yet entertaining.
