Google Pixel 2 now official: technical characteristics and opinion

Google Pixel 2

El Google Pixel 2 has already been officially presented, today October 4. The new smartphone is a high-quality, high-end smartphone that features a standard design, no display without bezels. The great novelty of the smartphone is the high-quality camera.

Google Pixel 2, a high-end mobile

El Google Pixel 2 is not the mobile of the future, as it is, according to Apple, the iPhone X. We will talk after the Google Pixel 2 XL, which has also been officially presented, and which is a mobile of a higher level. But Google Pixel 2 is simply a high-end mobile, and of great quality, with a standard 5-inch screen. It is not a display without bezels. And that makes the mobile little innovative. But if you want to buy a high-quality compact mobile, and you don't want to buy the iPhone 8, then the Google Pixel 2 is one of the best phones on the market that you can buy.

Being a high-end smartphone, it has the processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 835, the best processor on the market, as well as 4 GB of RAM. There are mobiles that have 6 and 8 GB of RAM. But if Google, which also develops Android, has selected 4 GB of RAM, it is because a high-end smartphone does not require a higher capacity RAM.

The mobile will be available in two versions, with 64 GB and with 128 GB of internal memory. You cannot install a microSD card.

Compact design, although not very innovative

El Google Pixel 2 has a compact design. It does not have a screen without bezels, although it would have been perfect in a compact mobile. The Google Pixel 2 has a 5-inch screen with a Full HD resolution of 1.920 x 1.080 pixels. The truth is that you could have a much better screen. There is little innovation in the Google Pixel 2. The Google Pixel 2 XL is a much better mobile. Although they have the same camera, the same processor and the same RAM, the truth is that it seems that one is mid-range, and the other is high-end.

El Google Pixel 2 is submersible in water, although the truth is that as with all other mobile phones on the market, if we submerge it, we will no longer be able to claim the warranty.

High-quality camera and stereo audio

The camera is one of the main novelties of the Google Pixel 2, and it is very likely that the mobile will become the smartphone with the best camera on the market. Is a high-quality 12,2 megapixel camera. The camera sensor has 1,4 micron pixels.

But the smartphone has a unique processor for the camera, designed by Google to act as the brain of the photo camera. The quality of a camera does not depend only on the sensor, which is of high quality in the case of the Google Pixel 2, but also on the processor that is responsible for processing the data obtained by the sensor. In this case, it is a processor that is uniquely designed to get the best possible photos.

Google Pixel 2 Colors

La camera is the main focus of the Google Pixel 2. And although it is true that the mobile is not of the same level as the Google Pixel 2 XL, it has the same camera. It's a compact mobile with the best mobile camera on the market.

Of course, the smartphone is capable of record in 4K, and the front camera is 8 megapixel.

In addition, the smartphone also has stereo speakers, so it also has high-quality audio. However, a cheap Bluetooth speaker is always better, so it is not very relevant.

Battery

Being a compact mobile, the battery is not large capacity, with a 2.700 mAh battery, although taking into account that the energy consumption is not very high for being a compact smartphone, the autonomy will be that of any smartphone, exceeding the full day.

As a novelty, yes, the smartphone is compatible with wireless charging, although a compatible wireless charging base will have to be purchasedAs always, it is not included with the smartphone.

Reviews

In my opinion not one of the best smartphones on the market. It is a mobile that innovates very little, and in October 2017 the mobile would have to be better. In itself it is a quality mobile, but it does not offer a design on the level of other high-end mobile phones on the market, nor a cheaper price. It is a more expensive OnePlus 5, or a Galaxy S8 with a high-end mobile design from 2016. Quite similar to the iPhone 8. However, it is true that it is a compact mobile with a high-quality camera. But in my opinion, buying it is losing money, because for the price of the Google Pixel 2 it is possible to buy a higher quality mobile.
