The Google Pixel 2 vs. the original Pixel: What’s changed?

The new Pixel phones are here and, while they don’t give us much more to look at compared to last year’s models, it’s the inside that really counts.

Give the specs below a peep, and stay tuned as we put Google’s new handset through its paces soon.
