Google Pixel 2With the power of Google at your fingertips combined with an amazing camera and features, jam-packed into a stunningly streamlined smartphone, Google introduced Pixel and with Google Pixel, came the new and improved Google Pixel 2. Both the Pixel and Pixel 2 phones feature Google Assistant – ready to answer your every question or assist you with any task with a simple press of a button or “OK Google” command.

Google Photos is another key feature that both the Pixel and Pixel 2 possess. Google Photos grants you access to unlimited online storage for your photos and videos so you never have to worry about losing your special memories and captured moments. All photos and videos stored in Google Photos are saved online in full resolution so you don’t have to compromise on quality when capturing your moments using the Pixel12.3MP or Pixel 2 12.3MP rear camera or 8MP front camera, and you never have to worry about “Storage is Full” notifications ever again. Google Duo is also a fantastic feature when it comes to making use of your camera. Google Duo is a high-quality video calling app that’s built into your phone and paired with Google Allo that allows you to integrate Google Assistant into your chats and take communication to a whole new level.

So what makes the Google Pixel 2 better than the Google Pixel if they already share so many awesome features? Well, for one, the Google Pixel 2 is water resistant and dust resistant, making it a pretty big game changer. No longer will you have to worry if your phone gets splashed while you’re out and about near the poolside or at the beach. It also features Google Lens. Google Lens is the ultimate feature for the explorers. Simply pull up Google Lens on a photo and learn more about landmarks, artwork, history and more while you travel the globe and find out more than a tour guide might tell you. Google Lens doesn’t just stop at giving you details about landmarks and buildings while touring the countryside. You can save the phone numbers and address details from a photo of a business card and even get reviews and other details about books you might be interested in.

While the Pixel is only available in Silver and Black, the Pixel 2 is available in Black, White and a new “Kinda Blue” colour, and Black and Black & White for the Pixel 2 XL. Both the Google Pixel and Pixel 2 have 4GB RAM with Qualcomm Snapdragon processors. The Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL have the new Andriod Oreo 8.0.0 operating system that comes with some really cool features. Some of these features include the “Now Playing music detection which recognises music playing in the room and displays the name and artist on the lock screen; floating navigation on your Google Maps which allows your navigation to stay up in a miniature window on the home display; notification dots on your apps; being able to swipe down on the fingerprint scanner to bring up the notifications and quick setting screens, screen pinning which allows you to “pin” a page until you unlock it – this allows you to show people a page of information or photos without worrying about them navigating away to something else in your phone; and when you set your phone background to a light or dark picture, the menu adapts to the colour palet and changes automatically to suit. While some of these features might not seem like a huge deal, sometime’s it’s the little things that make an operating system a joy to use.
