There&#8217;s not too big of a rethink here from the Pixel, but one difference is the size of the bezels, which have become way smaller. That&#8217;s no surprise given the current trend towards super-tall screen phones, as exemplified by the Galaxy S8 and LG G6&#8230; and even the upcoming iPhone 8, if recent leaks are any indication. Dual speakers aren&#8217;t shown, but the top earpiece is larger than you would perhaps expect.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/22222.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"910\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/22222.jpg 910w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/22222-300x148.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/22222-768x380.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/22222-450x223.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 910px) 100vw, 910px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The bottom of the phone also holds some interesting details. Probably the most relevant to music fans is the removal of the 3.5mm jack, another trend &#8212; and one that has far fewer fans. The missing 3.5mm jack means that users will have to rely on Bluetooth headphones, USB-C headphones or traditional wired headphones connected using a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter. That&#8217;s not insurmountable, but it is annoying &#8212; particularly if you like to charge your phone and listen to music at the same time!<\/p>\n<p>For more information or to sign up for stock notifications, check out the relevant link below:<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-shop\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/google\/pixel-2\/cases\">Shop Google Pixel 2 cases &gt;&gt;<\/a>\u00a0<a class=\"btn btn-shop\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/google\/pixel-xl-2\/cases\">Shop Google Pixel 2 XL cases &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll have more Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL news and accessories in the coming weeks and months, so stay tuned!
