Rumored to be released in October, the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 may still see HTC as the partner of Google for the handsets' development. Fans and analysts also believe that it may not be possible for HTC to introduce another size for its Pixel release in 2017.
Google could also introduce a waterproof and dustproof design for the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 since this feature is already a much-needed feature in smartphones. An upgrade from an IP58 to an IPS67 is expected for both handsets.
2K screens for both handsets

As for its camera, a dual-lens setup could also come with the device especially that other big brands like the iPhone are now offering this type of technology. Some are even venturing into a tri-camera technology nowadays.
Included in the expectations of fans for the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL is an optical image stabilization for its camera. This will help owners of the upcoming phones shoot clearer photos and less shaky videos.
