Google Pixel 2 – Full Phone Information, Tech Specs and more

The Google Pixel 2 smartphone, that came out in late 2017, is the second generation of the Android smartphone designed and engineered by Google and ex-HTC engineers. It runs under the Android 8.0 Oreo exclusive edition.

The Google Pixel 2 has an aluminum body with a glass front panel. It includes a USB Type-C connector supporting USB 3.0, for power and data exchange and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Wireless connectivity includes the fastest 4G and LTE broadband connection as well as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and NFC. But unfortunately there is no radio.

The smaller of the two Pixel smartphones features a 1080p POLED screen with a 2700 mAh battery. It is powered with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 system-on-chip, Adreno 540 graphics, 4 GB of RAM, and 64 or 128 GB of UFS 2.0 internal storage. It also includes a 12.2-megapixel rear-facing camera and an 8-megapixel front-facing HD camera. Both cameras feature telephoto and wide-angle lenses and work with the AR app Google Lens.

Miscellaneous

The Google Pixel 2 has a unique always-on display that shows time, data, texts, mail and call notifications when the phone is locked. The display also allows you to find the title of a playing song and the name of the artist who sings it.

Google Lens also allows you to recognize text in any image, and allows you to do a Google image search. It’s the augmented reality app. You can basically take a photo of a real life flower, and instantly learn its name and species.The same applies to taking a photo of a cafe’s billboard… you will be able to pull up feedback and reviews about the cafe on Google right away.
