Google Pixel XL 2 gets caught in benchmark with bigger screen Snapdragon 835

The latest prototype smartphone to be put through the paces of GFXBench is Googles upcoming Pixel XL 2, the successor for the original Pixel XL from 2016. This device should launch alongside the Pixel 2 at some point this fall, perhaps with a third model joining them. Theyve all been rumored to be powered by Qualcomms Snapdragon 835 chipset, and the aforementioned benchmark run confirms that.

GFXBenchs info listing also tells us that the next Pixel XL will feature a slightly bigger screen than its predecessor. For some reason, the benchmarks only taken into account the size and resolution of the display excluding the software Android navigation buttons - thats why the listed resolution is the odd 2,560x1,312. Add in the navigation bar and you arrive at 2,560x1,440 or QHD, the same resolution used in last years Pixel XL. If we factor the navigation bar into the size calculation too, we think the Pixel XL 2 tested in this benchmark actually has a 5.7" panel.

That would make it even more of a phablet than its predecessor. Lets hope that Google and HTC have managed to trim those huge bezels somewhat and will deliver this bigger screen while keeping the handsets overall footprint the same as the first Pixel XL.

Otherwise, the Pixel XL 2 seems to be pretty much identical to that model, with 4GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a 12 MP main camera, and an 8 MP selfie snapper. The prototype ran Android 7.1.1 Nougat but the final device should launch with Android 8.0.0 on board.
