6 Best Google Pixel 2 XL Alternatives

Huawei Mate 10 Pro

Huawei isn't a household name to everyone, but it should be. Huawei continues to build excellent phones and is now the number 2 smartphone manufacturer in the world behind Samsung. Beating out Apple in September of 2017. 

The new Huawei Mate 10 Pro is one of the best smartphones ever, at least on paper, and has everything the Pixel 2 XL does, and then some. The only problem with this alternative is it's not available yet, but will be soon. 

Huawei's Mate 10 Pro offers a stunning 6-inch Quad-HD screen, without the rounded edges or curved glass of the Pixel 2. Then, everything else about this phone is actually better than Google's latest. You'll get a 20 and 12MP dual camera setup on the back, the latest Android 8.0 Oreo, 128GB of storage, 6GB of RAM, water-resistance, stereo speakers and more. 

As an added bonus, this phone packs a massive 4,000 mAh battery, nearly 500 mAh more than the Pixel 2 XL. All in a slim package with small bezels and a premium design. This is certainly one worth heavy consideration. We're expecting a price around $850-900 in early to mid-November.
