Google’s Pixel 2 is the company’s latest attempt at a branded smartphone that it hopes can take on Apple’s iPhone, as well as a variety of smartphones running Google’s own Android operating system.

The 5-inch Pixel 2 and 6-inch Pixel 2 XL are almost identical in terms of their features and basic specifications — the screen size is really the main difference between them. Getting the extra inch  from the Pixel 2 XL costs you $200 more, with a base price of $849 as compared to the smaller phone’s $649.
