    I didn't read all that, but pretty sure the only time you mentioned the Pixel 2 XL's larger, sharper screen was as a negative, which is ridiculous. The resolution and use of OLED almost certainly makes it better than the iPhone 8 Plus's (I'll admit I haven't used either, but do have both QHD OLED devices and True Tone devices at home and I know which I prefer.) Also, in real world use that 4GB of RAM will likely be absolutely fine. It certainly is on my S7 Edge, a phone which runs basically just as fast as my iPad Pro 10.5 for all intents and purposes. The Pixel 2 XL is overpriced, but this article looks to be seriously biased.
    Didn't read the article and its fact-based observations, claims its biased nonetheless. Classic.
    Read some of it, only commented on the bits which I did read. I'm sure there are fair arguments in there, in fact I read some, but some of them clearly were either biased or just show the author doesn't know what they're talking about. And I'm just as qualified (or unqualified) to talk about this stuff, as I have the same job.

    But.....!

    The S8 supports Samsung Sound and Android Sound.  Both are obviously better because a tech blogger said so, and there was an Apples to oranges comparison by a paid testing company....

    Bring on the Android fan boys, can’t wait to be told how much better their’s is on some fringe data point.
    ”Samsung Sound is louder underwater!”

    hahahah, became a troll for a moment there...


    I don't think many people, even Android fanboys, would claim the Note 8's speakers sound better. There's a lot to praise the Note 8 and Samsung's flagships in general for, but they've rarely if ever stood out for sound. This comparison makes sense in that Samsung is Apple's main competitor, but a fairer test would maybe be the iPhone X against the Pixel 2, an Xperia or an HTC, since they actually do generally have good sound. Apple may well still win, but it would be a lot closer. And from what I've heard the Razer Phone probably has the iPhone X beat for sound, not that anyone's going to buy that.
