Google to roll out fix for random reboot in Pixel phones

Few days back we heard about Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL random rebooting issue. One of the device owners had posted a screenshot visualized the random rebooting problem on the Pixel User Community. Further, the owner claimed that the issue persisted even after performing a factory reset.

Well, there is some good news for the device owners. Google has now reportedly identified the issue of random rebooting of its flagship Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL smartphones and has assured that it will be issuing a fix in the coming weeks.

"Hey all, we've identified a fix, which will be rolling out in the coming weeks," wrote Orrin, a community manager in Google Product Forums' Pixel User Community, in a blog post while replying to a thread of messages about random reboots of the devices.

The update would be either bundled as part of a monthly security update (which sometimes include Pixel fixes) or a future Android software release.

Though Google's 2017 iteration of Pixel devices are a worthy attempt at being an iPhone-killer however, since the launch they have struggled with problems such as screen burn-in issue (in the early review lot of Pixel 2 XL), Bluetooth connection issues, the most-talked-about "blue tint" issue. Earlier in October, the tech giant had promised a fix to the screen burn-in issue as well.

"The Pixel 2 XL screen has been designed with an advanced POLED technology, including QHD+ resolution, wide color gamut and high contrast ratio for natural and beautiful colors and renderings," Android Central had quoted a Google spokesperson as saying.
