Google Pixel 3
The Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL have both leaked extensively, but as with every leak cycle, there are many different types of leaks that show up over time. Now we’re getting out first look at what purports to be the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL shown off in an official press render…
Last week a Japanese teaser site popped up for Google’s forthcoming Google Pixel 3 (Pixel 3 in Japan is news enough, right?), revealing a few themes that many believe may represent a few color variants for the device. Now, a fourth theme has been discovered in the page’s source code hinting at a fourth color — but it’s not quite fully functional.
The latest beta of the Google app is rolling out this afternoon with a handful of developments related to the Pixel Stand wireless charging accessory that could launch alongside the Pixel 3. Namely, we have another glimpse of the interface and its functionality.

Ahead of the launch of the Google Pixel 3 next month, Google has today published a teaser/landing page for the device on the Google Store. It’s pretty barebones for now…
This year has seen a whirlwind of leaks in the Google phone space. As you know if you’ve been following along with our extensive coverage, we know pretty much everything there is to know about the Google Pixel 3 and Google Pixel 3 XL, both set to be announced next month at Google’s October 9th event. But given an ever-spreading wildfire of distaste toward the bigger model’s large notch and plenty of misleading information, the “Pixel Ultra” speculation just hasn’t stopped.
While it’s impossible to put the rumors in their coffin for good until October 9th, we can round up everything that everyone has called a “Pixel Ultra” so far and write them off one by one…
Google has today sent invites to French publications for yet another Made by Google event. This one is in Paris, France, and likely means the launch of the Google Pixel 3 in that country and perhaps others in mainland Europe.
We now know officially that Google is planning an October 9th event in New York City to launch the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL. And as it usually does, the company is gathering clips from YouTubers talking about its devices. Apparently, though, some of the clips in question specifically trash the company’s design team.
Google this afternoon officially announced that its next hardware event is on October 9th in New York City. The widely leaked Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are expected, while there are rumors of new Pixelbooks and other Made by Google products.
Last month, version 8.14 of the Google app revealed a “Pixel Stand” accessory that will likely be sold alongside the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL. Leveraging the Google Assistant, it essentially turns the phone into a miniature Smart Display of sorts. Today, that interface has likely been revealed.
Ahead of a rumored October event, the FCC today revealed certification of two smartphones from Google. The technical reports and E-label do not offer much in the way of new information, but does reveal model numbers for the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL.
The smaller Google Pixel 3 has managed to avoid the real-life photo leak treatment up to now, but the time has finally come. After months of extensive leaks of the larger Google Pixel 3 XL, the smaller model has now been leaked in the flesh.
Thanks to a hoard of leaks over the last few months, there’s an incredible number of things that we already know about the Google Pixel 3 and Google Pixel 3 XL. But as with all leaks of every phone, it’s practically impossible to hit every single bullet point before it’s announced on stage.
Here’s everything that, as of this writing, we still don’t know about the Pixel 3…
There’s not much left to learn about the Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL. We know just about everything about it — from what photos shot with its camera will look like, to what accessories come with it in the box. Along the way, though, we’ve pieced together most of the spec sheets for both phones too. Here’s what we think we know about the Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL specs…
Thanks to a flood of recent leaks, the hype is at its highest point yet leading up to Google’s next Pixel smartphone launch. Now, according to a new report, that launch might end up just a little bit later than we thought…
There’s not much we don’t know about the Pixel 3 XL at this point, but one thing that remains to be seen is just how good the camera will be. After all, the camera has been one of the lineup’s biggest bragging rights since Google debuted the original Pixel in 2016.
Here are some more shots that might give us a bit an idea…
If there’s one thing that the Google Pixel has been known for since its inception, it’s the camera. With the forthcoming Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, the Mountain View company is tripling down with improvements across the board and some new ideas. Sources tell us there are upgrades to the rear shooter, a new Visual Core chip, a front-facing dual-camera setup w/ new ‘Super Selfies’, and more.
In recent weeks, the Pixel 3 XL has extensively leaked in renders, live photos, and even specifications. The latest reveals packaging for the next-generation Made by Google device, including a pair of Pixel Buds-like USB-C headphones.
One of the biggest new features in Android 9 Pie is Google’s new take on navigation. However, that isn’t enabled by default when you upgrade your device. Instead, it’s hidden behind a toggle. Apparently, though, Google’s next flagship, the Pixel 3, won’t be that way.
Nearly two years ago, Google was teasing its October 4th event as something we’ll “remember 8 years from now.” Lately, Google’s Pixel 3 has been leaking left and right, and now, it seems likely that the company will yet again be launching its new flagship smartphone on October 4th.
After some growing pains with the Pixel 2 and especially the Pixel 2 XL, we’re expecting a lot to come from Google’s Pixel 3 family of smartphones. We’ve already seen quite a few leaks of the device, but today, a handful of renders are showing off the design a bit more in-depth…
Last week images surfaced on the web showing what is likely to be the Google Pixel 3 XL in the flesh, which prompted many concept artists to imagine what the phone might look like in its official marketing material. Now, one of those artists is back with more images, this time showing what the phone would look like if given last year’s color options…
After working with HTC last year, Google decided to introduce a new input method it called Active Edge. When enabled, you could launch the Assistant or silence notifications by squeezing the two sides of the Pixel 2 inward. Well, whether many customers used it or not, it appears as though Google plans to bring Active Edge to the upcoming Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL.
