Can i install google pixel 3 xl (crosshatch) on pixel 2 xl or are they compatible??

[Android Central Question]

There are some features in pixel 3 xl which are not yet released for for pixel 2 xl and i just want to try them and i have also observed that pixel 3 xl and 2 xl are literally the same

You could flash the 3 ROM to the 2, but don't be surprised if the phone stops talking to the PC (and is hard-bricked). (In other words, if you have a 2 that you can get rid of, try, otherwise, I wouldn't.
