Google Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 Rumoured Specs And Price Leaked

Google Pixel 2 rumored specs leaked…

Oshetech promised to publish the rumoured specifications of Google upcoming Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 (or Pixel 2 XL) as soon as they leak out. Today, we're fulfilling that promised.

I first saw the rumoured specifications on Android Authority followed by The Inquirer where I got more convinced it has leaked out.

Recalling what I discussed previously, “it is true that the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 smartphones will have their launch event to be held in San Francisco, on October 4”. Rick Osterloh, Senior Vice President, Hardware at Google, published a post on google blog that the company (Google) buys part of HTC talented team.  And was said that these amazing HTC team are the manufacturers behind the upcoming Pixel 2 smartphone.

Before the launch event,  you should know what to expect from these devices. Here we have discussed the full specs of the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 smartphones.

Both Pixel smartphones are expected to run on the latest Android 8.0 Oreo Operating System, feature Snapdragon 835 processors, HTC-style squeeze edges (for the Pixel 2), IP67 certification. Just like Apple's flagship iPhone X and iPhone 8, these Pixel smartphones are expected to come in two storage variants, the 64GB and 128GB variants.

Both devices might come out of box with a whooping 4GB RAM suitable for the handset’s smooth daily operation.

As I mentioned above, Pixel 2 which is said to only have been manufactured by HTC amazing folks, will feature HTC-style squeezy edges. With this feature, users will be able to launch an app simply by squeezing the sides of their phone, it seems tricky though. Perhaps the Pixel XL 2 often said to have been made by LG may possess same functionality.

The verge stated that these Pixel smartphones will abandon the 3.5m headphone Jack for dual front-facing stereo speakers and USB-C port.

Both smartphones are expected to unbox with similar cameras as their predecessors.

According to Android Authority, both Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 smartphones will feature dual Pixel cameras with Optical Image Stabilization (IOS) just like iPhone X, perhaps what they meant is a front and back camera. Also, it was said that the cameras will include Google Imaging Chip.

Still on Android Authority leaked specs, both Pixel smartphones will likely include an E-SIM card slot which will allow users to switch to different networks without the need to replace a SIM card.

Both devices are expected to include IP67 certification, meaning they will be resistant to water and dust.

Pixel 2 is expected to include a FHD screen with Gorilla Glass 5, while the Pixel XL 2 is expected to have QHD Curved Gorilla Glass 5 Wide Colour Gamut.

All these features packed in Pixel 2 smartphone are to be powered by 2700mAh Non-removable Li-Ion battery, while the Pixel XL 2 will be packed with 3520mAh Non-removable Li-Ion battery.
