But for Pixel 2 owners, Google has come up with something really solid. “Over time, we believe the Assistant has the potential to transform how we use technology – not only by understanding you better but also by giving you one, easy-to-use and understandable way to interact with it”. Well, it comes with a 5.8-inch screen, and man, it looks lovely. Both of them have great screens, nearly bezel-less design.
The Pixel 2 XL comes with an Always-On display, something the iPhone X lacks despite featuring an OLED screen. Check out this article from Tom’s Guide for more features from Pixel 2.
DxOMark is highly impressed with the setup of the Pixel 2’s camera, and rightly so.
Both the devices are designed in an aluminum unibody with the hybrid coating. You’ll need to make changes in the Launcher settings to get the Pixel 2 like Google search box. It records 4K videos @ 30fps, 1080p @ 30fps, 60fps, and 120fps.
The main highlight of Pixel 2 is its camera, DxOMark Mobile has given the highest rating to second-gen Pixel smartphone. All this is is Google implementing more, optional safety features.
Pixel 2 is backed by a 2700mAh battery which delivers up to 7 hours of power after 15 minutes of charge and Pixel 2 XL by a 3520mAh which also up to 7 hours of power after 15 minutes of charge.
The company also showed its take on Air Pods, in the form of Google Pixel Buds. They are straight out of the future and if they work even half as good as what Google is claiming, the Pixel Buds will set the tone for the world of future where there will be nearly no language barriers.

Similarly, Samsung too revealed a similar feature on its device.
We don’t know yet for which feature was this command set for, but we now know we should expect another new important feature or functionality, created exclusively for the Pixelbook. This feature will also work in Airplane Mode. Tell us what you think about them in a comment. Which of these smartphones would you rather own? The iPhone X, on the other hand, packs 64GB and 256GB of storage.
Those wanting the larger Pixel 2 XL will have to wait a little longer as, although it’s still available to pre-order, it won’t hit shops until November 15th. Preordering is already available and shipping will get to customers in December. Particularly for a premium priced flagship device in late 2017.
Google announced the Pixel 2 And Pixel 2 XL on October 4th in San Francisco. The case can fully charge the Pixel Buds 5 times before needing a recharge, or so says Google. The update is rolling out on the Google Play Store, so we suggest you wait for a while.
We did enjoy the Pixel look and feel, though, which offered a clean and neat Android operating system, much alike to the Nexus experience.
