Pixel 2 vs Pixel 3

Swappasaurus says...

Upgrading from a Google Pixel 2 to a Pixel 3 means improvements in several key areas. To begin, the overall performance was boosted by going from the Snapdragon 835 to Snapdragon 845 processor. And, while the overall look and size of the device remained similar, the display did grow by 0.5-inches on the Pixel 3. The Pixel 3 display is 5.5-inches and arrived with HDR support and with an aspect ratio of 18:9. The Pixel 3 also saw a bump in the battery size, got a new soft-touch back, a new dual 8MP front-facing camera setup, and some new features, such as Top Shot, Motion Auto-Focus, and Group Selfie Cam, for the rear-camera.
