Google is set to release two new smartphones, the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL, as well as a smaller Google Home Mini smart speaker on 4 October, the Guardian has learned. Two variants of the Pixel smartphone will be released mirroring last year’s devices, several well-placed sources told to the Guardian. Four separate sources said the images of the Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL published by technology site Droid Life were accurate. Three sources say the cost of the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL is still to be confirmed, but they are expected to be priced similarly to last year’s Pixel and Pixel XL, which cost £600 and £719 respectively. Alongside the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL, Google will also unveil a smaller Google Home smart speaker.
