Renders showing the Google Pixel 2 in different colors do nothing to improve a stale design


CAD-based renders recently surfaced based on case schematics giving us a good idea of what the Google Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 should look like and to put it bluntly, Mba (Igbo for No).These flagship phones look like phones that would have stolen the show in
2014, but in 2017, where everyone is wielding phones with either proper sex appeal or an iPhone (let’s face it, what Apple lacks in looks, it more than makes up in a sexy user experience). The Google Pixel 2 and XL 2 may have a hard time making a proper impact. LG G6 knows exactly what I am talking about.
Fun fact: last year’s Pixel phones were designed by HTC and this year’s design contract goes to LG.
I really hope what these phones lack in looks they also make up for in specs and functionality.



Note, the colors splashed on these renders are not official. Just an artist trying to cheer himself and us up I imagine.
As a form of eye candy and maybe a wtf google, here are  a couple mock-ups of what the world was hoping the Pixel’ design would be based on.
