India among first countries to get Google Pixel 2

Out of the two smartphones, Google Pixel 2 targets the regular crowd. It has been made a bit sleeker, but the phone largely looks like the original Pixel. The device has the same two-tone finish,  and the fingerprint scanner sits on the back. Things get far more interesting with the Pixel 2 XL, which now comes with a 6-inch P-OLED display with 18:9 aspect ratio. In comparison, Pixel 2 gets a 5-inch Full HD display and the standard 16:9 aspect ratio.

Both come packing a Snapdragon 835 processor, 4GB RAM and either 64GB or 128GB storage. As usual, there’s no option to expand the internal storage. They also get dual-frontal speakers, USB Type-C connectivity and a new Android launcher. The two devices also get a 12MP single camera lens. The big addition is the OIS, as well as a wider f/1.7 aperture lens.

The Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL succeed the Pixel and Pixel XL that came out last year. Both the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL takes the centerstage in the company’s hardware portfolio, which also includes the Pixelbook, Google Home Max and Home Mini, Daydream View 2 and Google Clips.
