Google Pixel 2 review: AI comes to the fore
Google Pixel 2 XL review: It's the inside that counts
Any Android phone with at least Android 4.1 can get the fresh look of the new Pixel phones with Action Launcher version 29 for beta users. That means you can move the search bar below the app dock. Plus, you can use the launcher to go even further with customizations not otherwise possible, like adding shortcuts and changing the shape of the search box. Previous updates to Action Launcher also featured Oreo's notification dots, app shortcuts and Google Feed integration, so it's a one stop shop for making your phone more cutting edge, even with an older version of Android.

Action launcher is definitely one of the best launchers available for android but I prefer Nova..
Nova launcher and KWGT widgets can achieve something similar..
I've had a customised search bar at the bottom of my home screen (dock) for about 3yrs (which is where it should be on a large screen)
currently have Pixel wallpaper and round screen corners on a Nexus 6 actually looks a lot like the Pixel 2..
