The Pixel 3 XL has leaked big style from multiple sources.
The new leak details the Pixel 3 in FULL – meaning, we see the phone and also get a look at some camera samples.
As expected, the images captured by the Pixel 3 are VERY impressive.
Google’s previous two generations of Pixel phones have been very impressive indeed. And it looks like the third-generation Pixel 3 will be just as good.
Yet MORE Pixel 3 Camera LEAKAGE
It seems like a big Pixel 3 leak is occuring every day out of Russia, but the latest comes via 9To5Google and goes into great detail about the camera capabilities, including features we've not seen tipped before.
According to the publication's report, it has heard from anonymous sources that the Pixel 3 series has an "updated visual core" and can take what are described as "Super Selfies".
That Super Selfies feature isn't just a name conjured up by the lekasters either, that's apparently what Google actually calls the feaure aboard the Pixel 3. Unfortunatley the leak doesn't reveal what these Super Selfies actually do, but it's believed the dual-sensor front-facing camera will have a lot to do with it, we're probably looking at some kind of advanced Portrait Mode-like capability, but one which is both hardware and software driven rather than purely software effects based.
We do, however, know that the phone's selfies will feature face retouching capabilities and will have "Natural" and "Soft" options, as well as zoom features from the second lens. One lens is also wide-angle for group selfies or to get more of the environment in on your holiday snaps.
The report adds he rear camera will use a new 12.2MP sensor, with Google apparently "doubling down on making a single camera powerful enough to not need a second camera." It's said the quality of images from this setup is "incredible", particularly in low light. The updated Visual Core will reportedly "offer more than just HDR+"
Another Day, Another Big Batch Of Pixel 3 XL Leaks From Russia!
Only a day after the original big Russian Pixel 3 XL leaks, another big wave of them has emerged on the internet. This time via Russian site Mobile-Review where we have images of the handset, including a contrasting power key on the white model. We also see the box and packaging, screenshots of the Settings menus (which confirm a 64GB storage/4GB RAM model), screengrabs of the camera UI, a 12MP rating confirmed for the primary camera and 8MP for the secondary, and a bunch of camera samples.
The leakster also noted the OLED display is mostly on par with the iPhone X, but is not as good at outdoor readability in sunlight as some rivals, notably Samsung's Galaxy Note 9.
The source tips pricing at $750 for the Pixel 3 XL and $650 for the Pixel 3, both will have Pixel Buds included (RRP $150).
In an interesting twist, he also adds that Google is apparently working on another five more devices right now, with one of them being a flexible phone planned for 2020. The other four are a mystery.
Pixel 3 XL Leaks In WHITE
Russian language website Rozetked dropped a set of hands-on images, including the box contents, the notched display, and the rear panel.
Indeed, the handset is shown off from pretty much every angle, and it's wearing an attractive white finish too, providing a nice change from many earlier leaks. As with the previous Pixel phones it has a black fascia regardless of the back panel and edging colour.
The box seems to include a charging/data cable, power plug, multiple adaptors, a set of Pixel Bud headphones, and possibly a case.
Rozetked was able to confirm most of the previously leaked specs, including a Snapdragon 845 chip, a notched 2960 × 1440 display, a USB Type-C port, and a camera which they say is amazing.
