Knight has confirmed that upcoming update will be issuing a software fix for the audio quality problems that users have been complaining about on the Pixel 2 XL and Pixel 2 when recording video, as reported by Indian Express.

The Google Pixel 2 camera's "flicker detection" issue around LED lights will be fixed in a future update. Google claims this on another software bug.

In Pixel 2, Google added a newer auto-focus machine and the dual Pixel technology to improve the quality of the pictures.
