All the news from
Google’s October event
Google revealed all sorts of hardware at its Pixel 2 launch, but
software was quietly the star of the show.

G
oogle’s annual hardware event on 4 October
didn’t disappoint. The Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL
were revealed, as expected, but that was just
the tip of the iceberg. The tech giant also expanded

Pixelbook
The heir to yesteryear’s premium
Chromebook Pixel laptops, the
Pixelbook blends sleek aluminium
design and powerful internal
