The Pixel 2, the second-generation of Google’s Pixel line, is now available in Canada through carriers, as well as directly from Google. The 6-inch, more expensive, sleeker looking Pixel 2 XL is still on the way, with a loose shipping date of December 2017, though the phone is available for pre-order now at most Canadian carriers, as well as directly through Google.
The 5-inch Pixel 2 features a 1080 x 1920 pixel display, Snapdragon 835 processor, 4GB of RAM and either 64GB or 128GB of storage. Other features include a depth-of-field portrait mode, despite the fact that the camera only features a single lens, Google Assistant integration and perhaps most importantly, frequent updates from Google.
Both Rose and I were impressed with Google’s Pixel offerings this year, with display quality being the only significant issue with either device.
As an incentive to purchase, Google is offering a free Google Home Mini with the purchase of a Pixel 2 or 2 XL both through its online store and Canadian carriers, while supplies last. For more information, check here or find details through the carrier websites listed below.
