Evan Blass (@evleaks) has done it again and with a recent tweet a couple of hours ago delivers the final “blow” to Google’s plans to keep the design of the upcoming Pixel phones a secret.
According to the images, the Pixel XL 2 model will have slim (but not THAT slim) bezels, while the smaller Pixel 2 model will appear chunkier – I guess we’ve got HTC to blame for this. According to the images, the Pixel XL 2 is expected to pack a 6” display with 18:9 aspect ratio and QHD+ resolution. On the other hand however, the 5” Pixel 2 will stick to regular 1080p, for those who still like FullHD resolution on a flagship.

Note that both Pixels get front-firing stereo speakers around their screens, along with Snapdragon 835 chipsets, 4GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB storage. Rumour has it that their main camera on the back, will offer 12MP resolution photos and 4K videos @ 30fps.
If you’re preparing to buy one of them, then this is of importance: the smaller model (Pixel 2) is expected to cost $650/$750 (for different storage variants) while the Pixel XL 2 will have a price tag of $850/$950 (for different storage variants as well).
Google’s event is scheduled for tomorrow, October 4 so, the time has come!
There must be some pretty stupid people at HTC. 2017 and they put out phones looking like this and have the audacity to charge a premium. Why don’t they take note of what Samsung, Huawei, LG, Xiaomi are doing with smaller bezels and more screen?
Surely, they can see from Samsung’s sales, that is what the consumer wants? They don’t have to copy anyone but these handsets are visually appalling.
