The device has a 12MP rear camera, 8MP front camera and a 3,520mAh battery.

Apart from unlocking the device in a snap, the fingerprint sensor on Pixel 2 XL can also be used to access the notification panel with a swipe down.

Pixel 2 XL also includes Google Lens that uses machine learning (ML) capabilities to recognise places, objects and streets, etc, from the clicked images to give more information about them.

Pixel 2 XL comes with Google Assistant that, in the coming weeks, will also be able to help with your daily routines.
