If Google Pixel 2 looks anything like THIS concept, the competition should be VERY afraid
GOOGLE'S Pixel 2 could be released later this year with the internet giant thought to be hard at work on the sequel to its first in-house flagship smartphone. And if the new handset looks anything like these concept images, it will likely sell-out in the blink of an eye.
Google Pixel 2 is rumoured to launch later this year.
Not too much is known about the upcoming Google handset, but these beautiful new concept designs from ConceptCreator show the potential of this next-generation Android handset.
Google hardware chief Rick Osterloh has already confirmed the existence of the upcoming device to Android Pit earlier this year.
"You can count on us to follow [the Pixel]. You can count on a successor this year, even if you don't hear a date from me now,” he said.
Early reports around the project suggested Google would introduce three new handsets this year.
According to the latest report from XDA Developers, the Pixel 2 will ship with a similar 4.97-inch 1080p Full HD panel as the original model used.
Google will likely use an “almost identical” design for this model, too.
As for its bigger brother, the Pixel XL 2 is rumoured to sport a larger 5.9-inch display with a 1440p OLED panel and “a smaller bezel than what we saw in the original Pixel XL”.
The latest whispers from 9to5Google claim the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 will jettison the 3.5mm headphone port in favour of stereo speakers.
Elsewhere, the next-generation Pixel will likely include IP68 water resistance – something that was missing from the original Pixel.
The rear camera is expected to see a number of improvements this year.
However, it sounds like Google plans to stick to the single camera lens, avoiding the growing trend to use dual camera set-ups.
