Newsworthy: Google Pixel 3 and 3XL leak. Comparable to the Galaxy Note 9 leak.

Hi fellow Steemians!

One of the most anticipated phones of 2018, the Google Pixel 3 and 3XL's front designs may have leaked.

From the picture above, you can tell 3 things.

  1. Once again, Pixel 3 and 3XL will feature different designs (Pixel 2 had larger bezels than Pixel 2XL). The 3XL will implement a notch design that is used so much by almost all manufacturers. Android P, which is expected to debut around when these phones will be launched, will support notches natively.

  2. Both will retain front stereo speakers. This is a great news and I'd rather sacrifice a little bit of bezels for good front-firing speakers. Although in this case, the bottom bezels still seem quite large even with the bottom speaker.

  3. Dual front cameras are likely to be implemented. On both phones, you can see 3 holes at the top. One would be for the proximity sensor but the other two are of the same size and will likely have cameras in them. Dual rear cameras were a thing of 2017 and now dual front cameras are a thing in 2018. It may likely support 3D front scanning, similar to that of iPhone X.

In terms of design, the Pixel's designs are quite different from the leaked Galaxy Note 9 design, shown below.

Samsung has decided to stay (relatively) unique and not implement a notch design. Rather, they've made the top and bottom bezels even thinner. You could also assume with the Note 9 that it will feature dual front facing cameras.

What do you think of these phones? Do you think the leaks are legit? Do you like them? Let me know!
