At the beginning of August, Blass also shared a photo of what may be the the next generation of Pixel phones.
Compared to the recently announced Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and the anticipated iPhone 8, these new Pixel 2 devices appear to be more standard-looking. The photo suggests that the units lack the large display which the Note 8 has, and is expected of the iPhone 8.
