10 Cool Things the Pixel 2 Can Do

Play Amazing Movies or YouTube Videos

Google's Pixel 2 and 2 XL have a few different ways to make watching movies or videos amazing. For one, you'll enjoy dual front-facing speakers on the Pixel 2 XL. This makes the sound come right at you, not fire down or even away from you like most rear-mounted speakers on other phones. This alone makes this phone one of the best for watching movies and video. 

The other one is HDR mode. Yes, the Pixel 2 supports HDR, and this works with YouTube, Netflix and other apps. When you're watching a high-quality YouTube video, look for 1440p HDR as an option, instead of something like 720p. You'll get bright, vivid colors, excellent sharpness, and more detail than most other videos. With the update to Android 8.1 Oreo the Pixel 2 supports HDR modes on apps and looks great. 

Basically, you'll get a better viewing experience when you watch Netflix or YouTube in HDR mode. Not to mention great front-facing sound.
