The HTC U11 Plus was originally intended to be the Google Pixel 2 XL
Close observers of the Android rumor mill will know that Google made an
abrupt change to its Pixel phone plans this summer, shelving its original
successor to the Pixel XL, which was codenamed “muskie,” in favor of
another device bearing the code title of “taimen.” Taimen went on to become
the LG-manufactured Google Pixel 2 XL, while muskie seemed to fade into
oblivion — however this week the latter name has resurfaced in the latest
Android source code drop. More than that, the code associates the device with
HTC as the manufacturer, points to it having the same pixel density as the
eventual Pixel 2 XL, and indicates that muskie had a pretty huge battery.
Google 暑假谣传临时换掉了Pixel XL的继任者 代号 muskie，改用 Taimen
而有趣这个代号又再次出现，而且跟HTC U11+有关
Here’s the cool part: muskie didn’t die, it just became the HTC U11 Plus.
也就是说用Google Pixel 2 XL还活着，那就是HTC U11+
The display size and proportions of HTC’s U11 Plus are a direct match for
the LG-made Pixel 2 XL: both have 6-inch screens with 18:9 aspect ratio and a
2880 x 1440 resolution. The major difference, however, is that LG’s display
is an OLED panel with a laundry list of problems, whereas HTC’s is a more
conventional LCD that just looks very nice. In hindsight, it appears obvious
that Google should have stuck with its muskie plans instead of making a
last-minute switch to LG; that would have saved the company a ton of
headaches and bad press, and probably would have made the Pixel 2 XL the sort
of potent iPhone rival we’ve long been waiting for.
跟LG Pixel 2XL比，两者萤幕大小分辨率都一模一样。唯一的差别是一个是OLED，一个
是LCD。以事后诸葛来看，Google应该选高级的HTC 版本，而不是萤幕烂烂的LG版。
如果Google没做错决定的话，或许Pixel 2 XL还可以跟iPhone拼一拼
心得：
想要买正常版Pixel 2 XL 的可以考虑HTC U11+
只是不知道相机有没有用一样的HDR+技术
如果有的话
真的就不需要等Pixel 2 XL了
不然google 就学iPhone，出一个Pixel X吧～
烂萤幕毁了一个好手机
