One Of The World's Best Cameras?
Going by the positive reviews from tech experts, the answer could well be yes! Cameras are hugely important features in any smartphone, and the 12.2-megapixel sensor in the Pixel 2, combined with Google's image processing is said to be producing some wonderful results. Meanwhile, optical image stabilisation gives you steadier footage when you want to shoot video.

Google Pixel 2 Review: Android camera magic
If there's a rockstar of the Android world in 2017, it's the new Pixel 2 . Google's own smartphones may not sell in as great a number as, say, Apple's iPhone or Samsung's Galaxy, but they're arguably no less important in their own way.- Pure Android Oreo experience is tasty
- Excellent camera
- Solid battery life
- Speedy Snapdragon 835 performance
- Pixel 2 bezels are huge
- Pixel 2 XL pOLED is muted and blue-tinged off-axis
- Can Google meet demand
Google Pixel 2 review: Clean, speedy Android in a minimal can
Last year, for the first time, Made by Google phones hit store shelves with a fresh look and new name to replace the aging Nexus. While Nexus represented pure Android for the nerds, Pixel was about making something truly great for everyone. And it was.- Polished
- speedy performance
- clean software and great front and back cameras
- Screen isn't as vibrant as competitors
- ActiveEdge is a pain to use
- lack of bezel free display is confusing
Google Pixel 2 review: not quite 'pixel perfect' but damn close
If you want a smartphone that’s as clean as they come and brilliantly-effective at tackling the everyday problems it sets out to solve, the Pixel 2 is a clear-cut winner. Google’s first generation of Pixel devices made a big splash last year. However, despite the misfortune that befell Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 and a massive advertising campaign, limited supply held the Pixel back from taking over the world. The Pixel’s moment of dazzling excitement quickly gave way to The Next Big Android Phone. A big splash is still just a splash after all. It’s act of unveiling brilliant in one moment, but gone the next.- Great form-factor
- Brilliant everyday performance
- Outstanding camera results
- Displays on both the Pixel 2 and XL have their drawbacks
- Battery life is only OK
Google Pixel 2
The Google Pixel 2 follows on from the popular Google Pixel phone, with some key improvements to the onboard camera. It now features a camera with dual-pixel autofocus. There's 12.2 megapixels, with an accompanying lens which has an f/1.8 aperture.
Best phone for life comes at a price...
the expensive google pixel 2 (5 inch) does not look like much, heck, one can argue the galaxy s4 from years ago had slimmer bezels, but looks can be VERY decieving. as I learned from my pixel 2, a bezeless front and shiny glass back isnt the answer to those who care to use their phones more than...- awesome camera
- fast UI
- fits one hand
- smooth and consistent performance
- easy to use coming from any phone
- medicore battery
- large body for screen
- no headphone jack or micro sd
Google Pixel 2 review
The Google Pixel 2 hides its light under a bushel. The physical design is demure, Android 8 doesn't look much different at first glance, and without a UI overlay or third-party software, bells and whistles are few and far between.- Very good performance, Great camera, Fast battery charging, IP67 dust and water resistance, Guaranteed speedy Android updates, Clever use of fingerprint reader and squeezable sides
- Moderate battery life, Tall chassis, No microSD slot or 3.5mm headphone jack, No wireless charging
In case you skipped right to the conclusion, here's what you need to know. There aren't a ton of things that separate the Pixel 2 from the Pixel 2 XL, so the model you choose will most likely depend on whether you want a big or small screen.
- Best-in-class camera All-day battery life IP67 certified Loud and clear front-facing speakers Easy-to-use and practical Android experience Fluid
- quick performance Google is finally good at designing smartphones 64 GB of base storage Active Edge is very useful
- The Pixel 2 feels like the lesser option due to large bezels Pixel 2 XL's display feels like a step down from the Pixel XL's No headphone jack No USB Type-C headphones in the box High price tag While useful
- Active Edge should have more features

Google Pixel 2
Last year's inaugural Pixel was such a slam dunk, I expected this year's Google Pixel 2 -- and larger Pixel 2 XL -- to carry Google's phone even further. In the most important ways, it has.- Google's Pixel 2 has a superb camera with OIS and excellent low-light shooting
- It's water-resistant and Google Lens calls up a trove of information to help you explore your surroundings
- The phone's battery doesn't keep pace with the Pixel's competitors and its Portrait Mode isn't as smooth on dual-camera phones
- Its design feels dated and it doesn't have wireless charging or a headphone jack
