A few hours ago I published an article in which I informed you about the expected presentation date of the highly anticipated iPhone 8, and I say highly anticipated because it will be the first terminal of the Cupertino-based company to finally implement a virtually frameless screen, following the trend of the main manufacturers in the market.
Almost a month later, on October 5, it will be the turn of Google's phone, the second generation of the Pixel, a terminal that we have seen in the different leaks, will not adopt a frameless display, a move that won't do your sales a favor.
Just yesterday the Galaxy Note 8 was presented, a terminal that follows the trend of the spectacular Galaxy S8, a terminal that will start to hit the market in just over a week. It is clear that the third and fourth quarters of the year are the ones chosen by the greats to present their terminals in order to take advantage of the pull of the Christmas sales that are just around the corner.
Google's second-generation Pixel handsets, powered by Snapdragon 836 SoC's, will be unveiled on October 5th.

Again Evan Blass has been the one who has published this supposed date of presentation of the Google Pixel 2, terminal that will arrive again in two formats like the previous year. The only incentive that the second generation of the Pixel will offer us, not having a double camera and an infinite screen like Samsung, is the heart of the terminal. Inside the Pixel 2 we will almost certainly find the Snapdragon 836, the latest processor from the American firm Qualcomm.
Another novelty that this second generation of the Pixel will bring us is found in the option to perform different gestures with the terminal, so that it performs different actions such as turning on the flashlight, activating the camera, opening a specific application ... For now we will have to wait until October 5, if the date is finally confirmed, to be able if the Pixel 2 has a gap in the market, as long as the distribution system improves obviously, since this terminal has hardly been available in just over three countries: the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, at least officially.
