A Gray Past

The latest generation of Pixel phones, consisting of the Pixel 2 XL and the Pixel 2, had very small sales on a worldwide scale. Part of the explanation lies in the limited availability of the product, which has reached very few countries and has been distributed through a few channels. In Spain, for example, only the XL variant could be purchased and with only one operator: Orange.

Criticisms of the Pixel 2 XL and its standard variant were rather positive. The experience of the software the autonomy and the camera were the three points highlighted by the experts

The only serious flaw was found in OLED screen of XL model whose quality was significantly lower than that of other similar phones (Galaxy Note 8, iPhone X, etc.).
