In the online catalog, new smartphones from Google – Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL – are noticed. Recall that international sales of smartphones began on October as it started its Pixel and Pixel XL. At the same time since the announcement in the network there were rumors that new branded smartphones Google will not appear. Apparently, the rumors were unjustified.

Company currently has all 12 variations of Google Pixel 2and Pixel 2 XL – three color options and two memory sizes to choose from for each model. The price and timing of the release are not yet specified.

Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL are manufactured by HTC and LG. The younger Pixel 2 is equipped with a 5-inch display with a resolution of Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels), and the older Pixel 2 XL – 5.5-inch with a resolution of Quad HD (2560 x 1440 pixels).

Smartphones are equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 6 GB of RAM and 32 or 128 GB of internal flash memory. The display is created using AMOLED technology and protected by 2.5D-glass Corning Gorilla Glass 6. The main camera company is especially proud and calls it the best camera in the smartphone that was ever created. It has a resolution of 16Mp aperture f / 2.0 and large 1.55-micron pixels, a phase autofocus and an optical stabilization system. The front camera is 8 megapixel.

Batteries – 2770 mAh and 3450 mAh, respectively. It is possible to quickly charge, for 15 minutes of recharging will provide 7 additional hours of operation. The work is performed under the operating system Android 8.0 Oreo. Support LTE, Wi-Fi (802.11 a / b / g / n / ac 2×2 MIMO), Bluetooth 4.2 and NFC. You can note a metal case with a glass insert on the rear panel, a fingerprint scanner and a USB Type-C port.

There was an analog 3D Touch, like Apple, but if in iOS a lot of applications support this function, then here I was able to evaluate its charms only on standard Google applications, it’s almost useless.

The gesture control works: if you shake the phone in the palm of your hand, you can switch from the main camera to the additional one and back.If you press the power button twice, you can quickly start the camera from any application or on a locked screen.And if you run your finger along the fingerprint scanner, then open the curtain with notifications.
