10 Google Pixel 2 Features You’ll Love & 1 You’ll Hate

Always-On Display Features

Another awesome feature that millions will love is the Always-On Display. Last year Google had "ambient display" which shows helpful information at a glance when you pick up the phone. 

However, just like Samsung, LG, and others, the Pixels now have an always-on display thanks to the OLED screen. When the phone and screen get turned off, a few small pixels on the screen glow in the background. This shows you the time, date, weather, battery levels, and likely incoming notifications 24/7. 

The average person wakes up their phone over 140 times a day. This drains the battery substantially when it's usually just to check the time or look at a notification. Now, this information is available at-a-glance whenever you need it, without turning on the screen. Expect better battery life and helpful features from the Pixel Always-On Display.
