Re: Pixel was impressive - Pixel 2 is an abortion
I would never buy a phone with a SD card slot. It means the manufacturer has skimped on internal storage and left you to buy it, and left you to deal with forever juggling stuff around on you phone forever more.
Once you own and pixel or nexus, you get it. Everything works, none of the nonsense of other phone, and storage is lighting fast and not slowed to the security interface speed.
