Black holed. gently caress off Hearthstone, I don't want your free packs right now. gently caress off Amazon Music, I don't need music right now. gently caress off Allo, I don't even know what you are. I hear Huawei's EMUI blocks all notifications by default, so you have to opt in to the ones you want. If you're not a power user, I'd consider that a huge positive in their favor.

Is the Pixel 2 being only announced on the 4th, or are preorders or sales starting that day too? I'm not familiar with how Google does things.

On October 4th, Google is announcing the Pixel 2. Singular. They're only manufacturing one. GOOD LUCK

Last year people were able to order on 10/4. To be specific, because I'm a loving pedant and I searched for it, I was able to order no later than 12:26PM Central on 10/04/2016 because that's the timestamp on the receipt email.

The camera on the pixel is still the best camera on any phone. I'm wondering if Google can actually top it.

If they just released the pixel on more countries. It was available on very few and you could only import select colours/storages from third party sellers unlike the Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 6, 5X and 6P wich were sold everywhere. Sure, it has a good camera but that can be experienced only by a tiny fraction of the users. I'll keep doing great shots with a P9.

Would having OIS in hardware be enough to just top the quality of last years Pixel/Nexus cameras with software OIS?

The Pixel's software video stabilization is like loving magic, it's extremely impressive. I would love OIS though for still images.

It's rumored that this year is going to have a dedicated image processing chip. I wouldn't expect OIS to make a return though, it doesn't fit with Google's image processing direction.

Those corners on the screen look like the radius should be cut in half. They're way too big.

I tell my assistant to call my mother by name and it chooses to instead call somebody's personal business in my town who shares the same name with her. It will literally prioritize some sort of google / maps search instead of my contact list at times.
