OK, good news boys, The display is much better than V30 but not up to samsung's greatest (duh).

This is the real deal. This is incredible news to me.
Google has made
custom image processor for pixel 2 phones. It's deactivated but it will be activated in the coming months.

Google is really taking mobile photography in a place no other companies dare to take. Great job google and can't wait to see what they bring to the future.

Engadget Score
Google
Pixel 2 XL
91
Pros
Excellent performance
Long battery life
Truly impressive camera
It's finally water resistant
Android 8.0 is powerful and accessible
eSIM works well with Project Fi
Cons
No microSD slot or headphone jack
There are better big screens out there
Unlimited full-res photo storage only lasts three years
Really good score and pros and cons on Engadget. It seems like the screen (and for me the lack of 3.5 mm jack) are the only week points for this phone

I have one in it's box next to me but it's not mine.. my brother's..
UPDATE:
he states there is definitely a noticeable blue tint at off center angles and there is a grainy texture to solid background colors. he may try to RMA and see if he'll get a better one as it seems the amount of tint/grain varies.

Ouch! That sucks.
Google should have gone with Samsung for the displays, although I do believe Samsung's stock of OLEDs was bought up by Apple for the iPhone X, so I guess that would have made it difficult to get stock of the Pixel 2 XL.
Hopefully Google can eventually sort this out. The Display is the primary way of interacting with the Device, if that is of poor quality then the whole experience is ruined.
All the best to your brother!

This is just madness, surely they should have picked this up in QC!???
Does the Google Pixel 2 XL have a screen burn-in problem?

Anyone who owns a Pixel 2 XL should use the images in the article to check if they also have burn-in.
