As a result, the smartphone came out in a different way.

In 2017, Google announced the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL smartphones, which were created by HTC and LG, respectively. According to the original plan, HTC was supposed to release the Pixel 2 XL, but in the end, the smartphone was entrusted to LG.

Now, on the YouTube channel, Calyx Hikari has published a video showing us the canceled prototype of the Pixel 2 XL made by HTC, which was codenamed Muskie. It was previously thought to be similar to the HTC U11 +.

The smartphone just had huge bezels above and below the display, which are much larger than the HTC U11 + and the Pixel 2 XL. In this regard, it matched the Pixel 2, which also received wide bezels and a screen with an aspect ratio of 16: 9.

On the back, a two-tone finish and a single camera with flash are visible, which are in the upper left corner. The phone also had a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. In the video, the device is controlled with a wireless mouse, as it does not respond to touch input.

The released Pixel 2 XL uses an 18: 9 aspect ratio display with narrower bezels.
