Google Pixel XL Launched; Better Display and Bigger Battery |
Last year, Google launched two Nexus smartphones to accommodate people with different smartphone size preferences. The Nexus 5X was available for those who prefer a smaller footprint, and the Nexus 6P was there for those that want the big thing. Now, the search engine giant is following that trend to do the same, and it has just launched the bigger Pixel XL.
The camera is still the same. A 12.3MP shooter that features an f/2.0 aperture and 1.55 micron pixels is still located at the back and an 8MP selfie shooter goes at the front.
For the pricing, it’s expected that it will carry a more expensive price tag. The Pixel XL will cost $769 for the base model, and it will also be available in Black, Silver, and the US-exclusive Blue.
