While the listed documents reveal tests on cellular connectivity, the HTC made Pixel 2 is likely to come with an ‘Active Edge’ feature, which means you can squeeze your phone’s frame to launch an app or function, 9to5Google reported. Leaks and rumours also suggest there will be two Pixel 2 devices this year which may be manufactured by HTC or LG. Through this new listing, it can be safely said that HTC is going to manufacture at least one of these devices.
