Google Pixel 2 XL 64GB
The Google Pixel 2 XL is the upsized version of the Pixel 2 - a six-inch display compared to five inches. But what other big things does the Pixel 2 XL bring us?
Optimum Android Performance
Reviews from industry events launching the Pixel 2 XL rave about the new Android Oreo, the new Operating System which takes smartphone performance to a remarkable new level. According to some, this new Pixel smartphone is how Android should operate in its purest form.
Speed...Lots Of Speed
The Snapdragon chipset, combined with 4 GB of RAM, combine to make the Pixel 2 XL a very fast phone, noticeably speedier than many other smartphones occupying the higher end of the market.
Always On Is Always Handy
A smaller feature, but a most welcome one, is the Always On feature, which means you can see the time and other notifications without having to tap the screen.
Crystal Clear P-OLED Display
One of the big advantages of upsizing to the Pixel 2 XL is the enhanced resolution of the P-OLED display. Its 2,880 x 1,440 resolution equals a crystal-clear display, something to keep in mind if things like virtual reality gaming apps are on your wish list.
Not Dual-Lens, But Dual Pixel
The Pixel camera is being lauded as one of the best, if not THE best, on the smartphone market. While the cameras are not dual-lens, technological features like dual-pixel for a stunning depth effect, means that the rave reviews for these cameras are justified.
Keeping Dust and Water Out
Protecting all the grand features in the upsized Pixel 2 XL is improved dust and water resistance.
A newer model Google Pixel 3 XL 128GB was released in August 2018.

Google Pixel 2 XL Review
This is where the Galaxy S8 Plus comes in: it's cheaper and has both of those features and matches the Pixel in just about every area.

Google Pixel 2 XL review
Despite losing the cherished 3.5mm headphone jack, the Pixel 2 XL makes up for it in spades with a mix of unique and sought-after features like a stellar design, waterproofing, Active Edge and a truly impressive camera.- Smart software that will only get better
- Confident design
- One of the very best smartphone cameras
- No 3.5mm headphone port
- Expensive
- Poorer screen than last year's model
Long ago in a Galaxy far far away… oh forget them Last Jedi feels, actually not THAT long ago and in this very galaxy, Nokia had launched a device called the Lumia 1020. It boasted some very good hardware and software (Windows Phone was silky smooth, remember?) and had a distinct design.
- Very good camera
- Very good hardware
- Battery life
- Distinct Design
- Slightly washed out display
- Penchant for inconsistent lagging
- Price tag
Google Pixel 2 XL review
While there’s little doubt that the Google Pixel 2 XL provides the goods for Android enthusiasts, it also balances it with a dose of the bads, with hardware issues that will bewilder and confuse, and not necessarily with obvious answers.- The best version of Android on any phone, ever, Feels great in the hands, Water-resistant, One of the best cameras on any phone out there
- Much, much buggier than it should be, Bezels feel bigger than necessary (certainly against the competition), Camera interface is too easy to use (and that isn’t going to be good for everyone), Screen gives blue cast viewed on the side, No wireless charging
Google Pixel 2 XL
For the second year running, the larger of the two Pixel devices released by Google is the more enticing. While the Pixel 2 sticks to a familiar blueprint, the Pixel 2 XL takes mimics the , and by slimming down the bezel and extending the display.- Stunning camera
- The best version of Android
- Minimal bezel
- Feels great to hold
- Lifeless screen
Even though more Android OEMs than ever before are using stock Android or near-stock Android software, the ecosystem remains highly fragmented. Every year Google releases its own Pixel phones to deliver premium and uncompromised experience to Android loyalists with a promise of up to 3 years of...
