EE announced that it is the exclusive direct UK network partner for the Pixel and Pixel XL. In addition to supporting WiFi Calling and 4G Calling(VoLTE), both the smartphones are compatible with EE’s 4G+ LTE-A Cat 9 network.
Available to pre-order from 4th October through EE stores, both handsets also come with unlimited cloud storage, so customers can upload their photos and videos in full resolution and never run out of space.
Pixel and Pixel XL will be the first handsets to feature Google Assistant, an advanced voice activated virtual personal assistant, as well as apps Duo and Allo, for simple video calling and smart messaging made to keep users close with the people that matter – and EE’s network will allow them to access these in more places than any other network across the UK.
EE will also offer the Google Daydream View headset, which turns the Pixel and Pixel XL into an immersive VR device. Users can explore new worlds, kick back in their own personal VR cinema, and play games that put them in the centre of action.
