INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Update:Google itself has now mentioned the name Pixel 3 in Android source code, and sources indicate a Google watch is coming
Plus, a cheaper version of the Pixel 3 is rumored to be in development and it could launch in July or August.The Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2
all the main things we want from the next phones in the range, from a customizable Active Edge to screen improvements and more.Cut to the
October 2018Google Pixel 3 release date and priceThe Google Pixel 3 launch date could be on October 4, 2018, and we arrived at this date due
to the fact that the Pixel 2 launched launched on October 4, 2017, while the original Pixel and Pixel XL launched on October 4, 2016
Google clearly likes to stick to a schedule.An early October launch event would put the likely Pixel 3 release date in October (last year,
it was October 19), and it might not be alone
Google is reportedly going to launch the Pixel 3 an and Pixel 3 XL with an official Google Pixel Watch that runs Wear OS.Before that, we
could also get a lower-cost Pixel model that's been rumored to be in the works
It's said to be launching in July or August.Price is another thing we can only guess at for now
smartphone prices at the high-end seem to be rising in general.But as noted above, a cheaper version of the Pixel 3 might also be in the
works, so if it is, and if it launches globally rather than just in emerging markets, then you might be able to pick up a new Pixel for less
yet, but we have seen the name mentioned by Google itself
Specifically, a mention of Pixel 3 has been found in code on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) site, which all be confirms it's in the
works.In fact, three new Pixel phones might be in the works
the top-end iPhone X and the slightly lower-end iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus
all three models launch, which they may well not, especially as three models were for a while rumored for the Pixel 2 range.One of those
noting also that all these codenames are types of fish, which was true of previous Pixel handsets as well.What we want to seeThe Pixel 2 and
to the Pixel 3 would be a step in the right direction.1
Smaller bezelsThe Pixel 2 has sizeable bezels, hopefully the Pixel 3 won'tFrom the iPhone X to the Samsung Galaxy Note 8, many 2017
flagships have all but eliminated bezels, but not the Pixel 2.This is a phone which still has quite large bezels above and below the screen,
manufacturing partners will find a way to significantly slim down the bezels without sacrificing speakers on the front.2
Customizable Active EdgeActive Edge on the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL lets you squeeze the sides to launch Google Assistant
but we want it to be context-sensitive, so for example if used in the camera app it would perhaps take a photo, and for the core
functionality to be customizable, so you can use it as a shortcut to whatever app or feature you want.3
Camera app improvementsThe Pixel 2 has a great camera, but the app is far from perfectDespite just being a single-lens one, the camera on
A return of the headphone jackDespite taking a dig at Apple for ditching the headphone jack when launching the original Pixel, Google has
major omission, especially now even Apple is supporting it.We expect wireless charging to become a lot more popular in the next year, thanks
Screen improvementsThe screens on both the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL show room for improvementThe standard Pixel 2 has just a 1080p screen,
done to improve those aspects for the Pixel 3 XL.7
Better water resistanceThe Pixel 2 range sports IP67 certification, which means it can survive being submerged up to 1 meter deep for up to
change, but one that could at the very least give buyers more peace of mind that their expensive purchase is fully protected against rain
and spills.tdkq2NYzSyAqd2hF5Uzoeg.jpg#
