Just FYI, you can use X as the camera button, as it is mapped to it by default in the camera app
Hi all, for those of you interested, I shot a video focus on the HTC One performance while running games like Real Racing 3, Asphalt 7, Dead Trigger, Shadowgun Deadzone, etc

That's a bummer, the Moto X Play doesn't have a gyroscope, nor does it have a pressure sensor (barometer). Those two sensors are usually included in the lowest priced phone. I guess, it will mean no PhotoSphere and CardBoard for us.

I can live without Barometer as I can check the data of my location using internet and apps. But the lack of gyro sensor is a big NO for me. I was down for this phone and I overlooked Snap 615 because of the monster battery. It's a shame that you wouldn't be able to click photospheres with this awesome sony 21mp sensor. There was a tweet from motorola that gyro could be there in hardware but it may be disabled. So we will really know for sure after Moto X play teardown. If this has gyro then it can be enabled with some coding. Moto X style on the other hand has IR sensors, gyro etc. But Moto X style battery is not gonna be great. Looks like I might have to wait 1 more year to upgrade my phone.

You can still use cardboard, but not able to rotate the screen with the phone.
I mostly use the cardboard for movies and computer games, I don't miss or notice the lack of gyro.

No there is no option for google cardboard installation on google play for this phone
I just returned my Homido VR box back to the store.Tried it with my old moto g 4g (gyroscope) and with the moto x play and it totally sucked.You can only play some simple demo games with the graphics of a playstation 1.The most anoying thing is that you will spend most of the time putting your phone in and out of VR box to control simple things.Most apps dont support a controller yet and are frustrating to use. I realized i dont mis anything with VR on android and decided to wait a few years.
So as we can see the s3 neo is well equipped to handle good graphics games
So here's the list of games i tried in the s3 neo with stock rom and stock kernel.
Asphalt 8 on high quality gfx mode (no lags)
Need for Speed most wanted (smooth)
Modern combat 3 & 4 (i got upto 60fps)
Dead trigger 1 & 2 (best zombie shooter game)
Riptide GP2 with high graphics and acceptable gaming
Beach buggy racing (same as R GP2)
GTA games (absolutely the wrong GPU -_-)
Real boxing (good)
And many more games.
So please share with us your gaming experience with other games
What do you think the probability of some of the "software" features demoed on the Pixel 3 will be ported to the Pixel 2 via Magisk, Xposed, Root etc?
Features im most intrested in is:
Playground - Finally i can meet Iron Man. Lol (It kinda sounded like google said these will be coming to Pixel and Pixel 2 later although i dont remember Pixel 1 having the AR chip soooo.
Call screen - I WANT THIS!!!!!!!!
The rest of the phone was pretty "Meh" I guess "NightSight" looked pretty cool.
Many new features will be available on all Pixel phones in a month or so according the the Made by Google event. I've watched it twice now. Maybe I'll make a list this evening when I watch again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsoQGTA1SxY
edit - I do remember Night Sight will come to all Pixels.

Interesting because after i watched the made by google event i watched MKBHD's impressions video. Turns out he was invited to Google HQ a few months ago to film and try out all the products he said that Google said other then the Hush feature they would all be exclusive to the Pixel 3

I've had the "Hush" feature for at least 5 years on a Galaxy Nexus, S4 Active, Nexus 6, Pixel 2 XL with Tasker!
P3 features coming to other Pixel phones.

Yeah I want call screen!
Hopefully some clever dev gets it ported to pixel 2.
Both night sight and call feature is coming to pixel and pixel 2s. Not sure about the new playmojis but I'm sure once someone get their hands on the apks. We can install them on our pixels.

Yup. I just went through the event video again. Night Sight is at ~1:18 and Playground at 1:20.
Photo Booth, High Res, Motion Auto Focus, and new Portrait features are not clear in the video if yes or no. If it is a software feature, Google seems to deliver it to all Pixel phones. (fingers crossed)
https://blog.google/products/photos/keep-your-favorite-photos-date-live-albums/
At the bottom, it says - "These new editing features will be available on Pixel 3 and other phones that support portrait photos including Pixel 2 and Motorola phones such as the Moto G6."
So it confirms that the portrait editing shown WILL be on Pixel 2 devices too!
ALSO:
https://www.blog.google/products/go...fferently-playground-and-google-lens-pixel-3/
This states - " Google Lens is available on all Pixel devices, with Playground on Pixel 3 first and coming to Pixel 1 and 2 soon"
Therefore all older pixel devices will be getting Playground too!

Hell yeah!!
Any issues with the 6.1 camera apk on the pixel 2 xl? The APK targets a lower dpi than the phone's value.
I'll wait for the Pixel 3 ROM Port to Pixel 2 ?

After you take the photo, go to edit and in the second option look for depth. That's your blur setting
I use Nova launcher but they have the Pixel launcher and new clock and alarm here as well. I am using the clock from here.
