Google's original Pixel smartphone is so good that it could be easy to forget to check the latest rumors surrounding its successor, which we'll call the "Pixel 2" for now.

While the rumor mill doesn't focus as much on Google's Pixel phones as much as it does on popular devices like the next iPhone or Galaxy phone, there still are a few rumored details worth sharing.

Overall, it looks like we can expect some decent improvements over the original Pixel, including its camera and design. We're also expecting Google to fill some gaps in features, like water resistance, in the upcoming Pixel 2, too.

There will be two new Pixel models.

At first, it was rumored that Google had two new Pixel models with the codenames "Muskie" and "Walleye." Most recently, however, it appears that Google has cancelled "Muskie," which was supposed to be the larger of the two devices. "Muskie" has reportedly been replaced with an even larger model with the codename "Taimen," according to Android Police.
