San Francisco: Google`s second-generation Pixel phones would be officially unveiled on October 4, the company has revealed.

A new video and website launched by Google asks smartphone owners to "stay tuned for more on October 4."

"This date lines up with last year`s announcement of the original Pixel devices which took place on October 4," Evan Blass, a famed and highly-accurate leakster, had earlier tweeted.

There have been reports from Android Police and XDA Developers that suggest chipset maker Qualcomm was not working on mid-cycle 836 chip this year, says a report in Ars Technica on Thursday.

The second-gen Pixel handsets are expected to feature the same Snapdragon 835 chipset as every other high-end Android smartphone.

Rumoured specifications of Pixel 2 (or whatever it would be called officially) include 4GB RAM as well as "squeezable" pressure sensitive sides, similar to what we saw on HTC`s flagship U11 smartphone.

It is expected to feature IP68 water and dust resistance.

The phone could also come with an always-on display, similar to the one found in Samsung`s Galaxy S8, S8+ and the recently-launched Galaxy Note 8.
