Google Pixel 2 XL Review

A great Camera Phone with a Neat Design


Google Pixel 2 XL Full Specification, Review and Features

Release date: October 2017 | Weight: 175g | Dimensions: 157.9 x 76.7 x 7.9mm | OS: Android 8 | Screen size: 6-inch | Resolution: 1440 x 2880 | CPU: Snapdragon 835 | RAM: 4GB | Storage: 64GB/128GB | Battery: 3,520mAh | Rear camera: 12MP | Front camera: 8MP


Thanks to a beautiful new design that incorporates an 18:5 QHD+ display and smaller bezels, and an even better camera that achieves dual camera quality from a single lens, the Pixel 2 XL is a real step forward for Google's smartphone brand.


Screen & Design: 
Though still a little behind the curve in terms of design, the Pixel 2 XL has improved leaps and bounds over its lacklustre predecessor. Though not the slimmest bezels around, the 2 XL's borders are roughly half the size of the ones on the original Pixel. 

We also get a much more stylish take on the Pixel's signature two-tone effect this time around, though its anodised aluminium backing means you can't charge it wirelessly. Thankfully, the Pixel 2 XL is IP67-certified against water and dust this time around. 


Performance: 
The XL has good battery life - you won't have a problem with it. It will comfortably last you a full day under normal conditions and with normal use, and its ability to save power when it's not doing anything means it'll last a few days in standby.

Once again, fans of the 'pure Android' experience will be in heaven here, as Google's OS provides the Pixel 2 XL with slick performance and a clutter-free interface. Its Snapdragon 835 processor is more than capable of handling any task you throw at it, though we'd have liked a bit more RAM.


Camera: 
There are so many handsets with dual camera setups these days, and yet the Pixel 2 XL's single-lens setup manages to pip almost all of them. A brilliant portrait mode and an incredibly fast capture speed are just two of the features you can look forward to using on the Pixel 2 XL.

Mini verdict: 
If you're looking for a handset that's big, offers terrific performance and will take astonishing pictures, then the Google Pixel 2 XL is the one for you.
