Google Pixel 2 XL also includes Google Lens—a new set of visual features that help you learn more about the world around you and get things done. At the start you’ll be able to look up landmarks, books, music albums, movies, and artwork, right from Google Photos on your Pixel.
 
You can also take an action like asking Google Lens to copy URLs and contact information from a picture of a poster or business card. Over just the next few months, Google will add more capabilities, as well as the ability to use it in the Google Assistant.
 
Pixel 2 XL also has Assistant built right in with a new feature called Active Edge. Just give the phone a quick squeeze, and ask for what you need. This works even when your phone is in a case. The Google Assistant on Pixel not only understands you better but can also be personalised.
 
The phone is available in two colour variants- Just Black, and Black and White.
