"neowin" : Pixel 2 smartphone coming later this year

And Google seems determined to follow that same trend according to its SVP of hardware and creator of the Pixel smartphones, Rick Osterloh. The Pixel smartphones are at the high-end of the market being similarly prices to iPhones and Galaxy S flagships, and they'll stay that way through the next generation. Citing the traditional industry cadence, the G-man said we'll definitely see a successor to the critically-acclaimed Pixel smartphones, though he declined to confirm an exact date. It's no secret that most companies in the tech, and especially smartphone industry, follow a yearly cycle where an updated, new device is released roughly every 12 months. If Google follows a strict timeline, we're likely to see the Pixel 2 and any derivative models around October.

"Pixel stays premium," Osterloh reportedly added, indicating Google won't enter the budget smartphone market like giants Apple, Samsung, and others. However, his confirmation could bring relief to Pixel fans to know the smartphone wasn't a 2016 exclusive. Google wasn't immediately available for comment.

Google says to 'count on' a second-generation Pixel smartphone this year

Google's Pixel smartphone this year was a significant reset for the company's mobile hardware strategy – and one that earned a lot of praise from customers and critics. This bodes well for Google's smartphone strategy. The first Pixel is still the best Android smartphone available, in my opinion, and it's good to see Google continuing along that path. First, we know Google's staying the course with the new strategy it set out with Pixel, whereby it aims to compete more directly with the iPhone. Good news for those who liked it: Pixel's successor will arrive sometime in 2017, as confirmed by Google SVP of Hardware Rick Osterloh to Android Pit at MWC this year.
