Well it was a good run, but returning.

[mdonnelly1127]

Honestly the phone was fast as hell just too many glitches and too many bad reviews to keep. My personal opinion of the phone the colors were true and nice at times and some things the colors were horrible. Camera was the best I've ever seen in my life and really really hate to lose it. The phone claims fast charge technology but my phone never fast charged at all (yes used OEM chargers and settings were fine) I had it side by side with my G8+ and the 8+ charged almost 50% faster overall.

The screen had a blue hue but barely noticeable but the screen did hurt my eyes sometimes in a dark room with bright down or up. Lots of apps force closed. Speakers were another amazing part of this phone sound quality is phenomenal. I can't justify spending $1000 on a half assed product when my gs8+ rather it be filled with bloatware or not or if it'll slow down, down the road, still an excellent phone. I'm entitled to my opinion as much as the next person but give it a try you may or may not feel the same.

Maybe if they come out with some better software updates to adjust the SRGB , fix the force closes, fix the charging issue, etc. Definitely might give the phone a run again if they fix these issues and I pray they do cause it could be the best phone. Good luck to everyone who loves it and all who will try it

So apps you installed closed, not those that came on the phone? Did you contact the developer of the apps and see what's going on? And you're returning a phone because other people said negative things about it?

So you're returning a phone based on negative reviews? The blue hint is some most phones have. The colors could possibly be fixed if enough people contact Google.

 

[mdonnelly1127]

No, returning the phone based on own situations with it, too many for a phone of that price and a phone that has that hardware. Like I said if it wasn't for the things I have experienced it wouldn't be an issue. And yes contacted app developers left and right about certain issues and they don't know why. Even stock apps froze when multitasking from time to time. And no fast charging was ridiculous and even day 2 of having the phone a big hang or freeze happened it put me into recovery mode couldn't restart the phone so had to erase and restore. Just annoying

... and too many bad reviews to keep.

Really? You returned a phone that you owned because someone else didn't like it?

I've had no problems with mine. I've used it daily since the 19th. No force closes. No glitches. No screen burn in. Fast charging works great.

The only thing mentioned in reviews that I do see is a blue tint when viewed at an angle - Big F'n Deal. It doesn't stop working when I view it at an odd angle, it just has a bluer tint on white backgrounds. That doesn't bother me in the least.

I have to believe that many of the overblown headlines are just sites trying to get more click$.

I'm very happy with my P2XL.

Sid you read the rest of my post or just that line? Yes I was scared to be outside the return policy

Fair enough.
When I first received my phone, I noticed the issue when looking at off angles.
However, I've since decided that it is not that big of a deal to warrant me to return it. The phone is significantly faster than any Android device on the market. Side by side comparison to my S8+, this did everything faster without any of the normal lag/pauses that Touchwiz brings.

I'll take the feeling of my phone being as fast as a brand new sports car, with an 'ok' screen vs a S8+ that has a overly vivid, but great screen, with hiccups accelerating like a Ford Focus.

Personally, I'm loving my XL. But I did realize something too regarding the quick charging. I know that it supports USB PD with 18W, and it displays "Charging rapidly" when I plug it into the brick it came with. When I plug it into a QC 2.0 brick though, it just displays charging. Is it not taking advantage of QC 2.0 speeds, or is it so slow compared to the stock brick that it doesn't detect it as rapid charging?

I'm pretty sure QC is not supported.

Correct. Quick Charge is not supported. Power Delivery only.

So basically my QC 2.0 chargers will charge at... what levels though? Would they essentially be like any other regular non-QC brick at this point?

Every device and charger are going to be different, but you can check out Ampere in the play store if you want numbers.

I have had the best results from USB-C to USB-C charging, and lesser results from USB-A to USB-C. If you're new to USB-C and Power Delivery (PD), I highly recommend you look at Benson Leung's approved devices for the best equipment.
