Google created the biggest problem in 2016. Google has started to actively participate in the hardware industry. At the center of the problem was the Google Pixel. Of course, Google didn’t produce straight off the hardware production line, but it was a smartphone that Google made all the way through. Despite being the first smartphone, the sales volume was enormous. In this controversy, Google’s hardware industry is unlikely to stop. I think the focus of this year’s hardware products will be the Google Pixel 2. The presentation was long. Let’s see how Pixel 2 will launch in the future!

The Pixel 2, which will be released this year, is expected to launch two of the same products. A 5.5-inch Pixel XL and a 5-inch Pixel product will be released. However, a product is added to the market. It is expected to be the successor to the Motorola Nexus 6 or the new Google tablet. The child month is known as the successor to the Pixel XL, followed by the 5-inch pixels, the Nexus 6 or the new Google tablet. All three products will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 835.
HTC to Pixel 2 and LG to collaborate with LG?
Currently, Pixel 2 is the governing body of Google and HTC is in charge of production. This symbiotic relationship is expected to continue on the Pixel 2. Google is in the process of selecting a company that will produce the Pixel 3, which will be produced in 2018. LG, HTC, TCL, cool pad, and is expected to launch in 2018 compete for win production Pixel 3 is known to be competing. Of these, LG is the most influential. LG seems to be advantageous because it previously produced the Nexus series. The Nexus 4 in 2012, the Nexus 5 in 2013, and the Nexus 5X in 2015 are designed by Google, and LG and Google have already collaborated. In addition to this, Google invested KRW 1 trillion in LG Display. It is said to have invested in a stable supply of OLED panel to install on the Pixel 3. From this perspective, it seems that LG will be based on the Pixel 3.
Why does LG become a partner of Google?
The existing pixels were supplied by Samsung Display and manufactured by HTC. The global demand for pixel phones is 5 million units. We expect more sales than the Pixel 2 sales. The Pixel 2, which is expecting more sales, has not been able to receive OLED from Samsung. This is because Apple has already partnered with Samsung to improve its OLED screen. Therefore, Google seems to have a strategy of investing KRW 1 trillion in LG Display to provide a stable supply of OLED panels. In conclusion, LG is emerging as a partner of Google because it is a company that can supply OLEDs, except Samsung, and can make smartphones, so Google seems to be working with LG.
Production of Pixel 2 HTC, which is scheduled to launch in September
Unfortunately, for 2017, you’ll have to look at Google Pixels made by HTC. The official launch date for HTC’s Pixel 2 is scheduled for mid-September. Pixel 2, presented at the moment, does not mention much of the device’s flaws and should not cause any problems. The Pixel 2, a benchmark smartphone made by Google, has the advantage of being able to see the latest operating systems faster, but I think if consumers continue to suffer from minor glitches like the Pixels, consumers may be distracted.
