Posted in: Uncategorized
Looking to finally enter the smartphone hardware business, Google is going after a familiar foe: Apple.
The maker of the Android mobile operating system unveiled new smartphones on Tuesday: the Pixel and a larger Pixel XL, that compete head on with the iPhone.
The Pixel phones feature thin aluminum and glass frames that come in black, silver, or blue (a limited edition for the U.S.). The smaller model, which starts at $649 for 32-gigabytes of storage, features a 5-inch screen, while the bigger model, priced at $769, has a 5.5-inch screen to match the iPhone 7 Plus. A 128-gigabyte storage option is also available, with the larger device topping out at $869 — also in line with the equivalent iPhone 7 Plus.
