A good list of all the things in Android P
My goodness the new DND systems horrible. Even if they made it easier it still requires a lot of set up.
Hate there is no DND till next alarm or for a specific time anymore.
And this is based on UX input. I know from my friends that I'm the only one using it like this the rest doesn't know or care. But that doesn't mean it doesn't work.
Man, it sucks.

There really needs to be a new player in the market because Qualcomm can't be trusted at this time.
The more I look at Android P the more I get the feeling it's iOS on steroids (far more customisability).

Google is seeking your thoughts on Pixel settings and configuration
In particular, do you ever run into any of the following types of issues with your Pixel:
There's a setting you constantly have to manage yourself(e.g. you turn Bluetooth on and off 10 times a day)
There's a setting you love, but wish you had found out about earlier (e.g. you are a big DND user, but never realized there was a DND scheduling feature)
There's a setting or configuration you wish your phone could be smarter about (e.g. why can't my Pixel put itself in airplane mode when I'm taking off in a plane?)
There's a setting or configuration you wish your phone could remind you about (e.g. I wish my phone could make sure I don't forget to silence my phone at work)
There are settings you changed the second you setup your phone (e.g. I turned off haptic feedback right away after setting up my Pixel)
Click on through to share your own thoughts and experiences.

It's been one of the biggest frustrations as a Fandroid. So much potential.
Finally confirmed what caused the battery drain overnight (1% p/h).
It was Ambient Display (also known as always on). Though I had turned this off but still noticed a drain I was finally able to see the phone kick into deep (deep) doze and perserve battery when not used.
What I wonder now is if this is the intended behaviour with Ambient Display. Once would expect if the phone has not been used for xx hours it would turn off, or if the room the phone is in, is dark.

Active Edge has made voice activation obsolete for me. Add Google Home units to it and it makes sense to have the voice activation turned off.
It is by far my favourite feature on the Pixel 2.
