A new Saturated mode and software changes to remedy screen burn-in are on the way, but is it enough?
On October 26, Google finally issued an official statement regarding the various display issues that people have been experiencing with the Pixel 2 XL.

Antennagate their reaction was pretty much the same as google's; deny there's a problem, provide a placebo in the form of a case so people forget about the problem.
