While Samsung announced its latest phone in the Galaxy Note series, Galaxy Note 9, users were patiently waiting for the two biggest smartphone giants to butt heads: Google and Apple. The Pixel 3 and 3 XL will be facing off with the 2nd gen iPhone X, iPhone X Plus, and 6.1-inch LCD iPhone. Yet, while the previous two Pixel phones have met with excitement and good reviews. For Pixel 3 the users have a great deal of hesitation, mostly because of its design and also because of some of its specs.
If phoneArena’s calculations are correct, we might be looking at a whopping 6.7 inches, up from last year’s 6.4.
As expected, it’s running on the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 but paired with just 4 GB RAM and possibly 64 GB of storage only. Then there’s the 3,430 mAh battery, down from the Pixel 2 XL’s 3,520 mAh.
The new Pixel phone was expected to sport three cameras but now there are only two cameras, a 12 megapixel on the back and 8 megapixels in front. The back also hints at a slight design change where the colour contrast between two sections of the rear is more subtle now.
In a way, the Google Pixel 3, especially this Pixel 3 XL, is making drastic changes in the Pixel line while keeping some things very much the same. One has to wait and watch whether this formula works around this time, or not.
