The Google Pixel smartphone was introduced in October 2016 at the Made By Google event. The Pixel was a new line of Google devices, that served as the follow up to the Nexus brand. This initial Pixel arrived running Android 7.1 Nougat, and with hardware features to include a 5.0-inch AMOLED display (1080 x 1920), Snapdragon 821 processor, 4GB of RAM, 32GB or 128GB of storage and a 2770 mAh battery. A highlight of the Pixel line was the focus on the camera, and this model launched with an 8MP front-facing camera and a 12.3MP rear-facing camera with a f/2.0 lens and IR laser-assisted auto-focus.
