As a reminder, this doesn’t mean that the resistance is any worse. Google seemingly didn’t certify this year’s devices for dust resistance – hence the missing number in the IP rating. This year’s water resistance has been raised to an IPX8 rating, up from the IP67 of the Pixel 2’s. Google achieves the two-tone look by applying a new method that just etches part of the glass, leaving a similar glossy top as on the Pixel 2’s. The new Pixels now introduce wireless charging, and this is thanks to the new all-glass backs of the phones. Subjectively, it does look ridiculous, but we’ll hold off definitive conclusions until we’ve had time with the phone. However Google’s take on the notch is definitely weird: It’s almost twice as high as that of other vendors, which makes one question exactly how this will actually look in daily app usages and if it’s actually of any benefit in terms of notification bar space. Now I can’t really be accused of being anti-notch, as I found it to be a complete non-issue on all of this year’s reviewed devices, including Huawei’s P20’s, the OnePlus 6 as well as the LG G7. The Pixel 3 XL is where Google is definitely taking a large design risk: The new XL also increases the screen-to-body ratio over the 2XL, however this comes with the introduction of a massive new screen notch. Over this updates the design with the trend with what we’ve seen in 2018, as phone’s screen-to-body ratio continues to grow. Starting off with the design of the Pixel 3, Google has elongated the screen aspect ratio to 18:9 and reduced the top and bottom bezels compared to the Pixel 2. Onboard storage comes in 64 and 128GB options. I don’t think this is an issue, even if some flagship devices this year sport larger capacities.

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 845 scheduler differentiated a lot from the “vanilla” Android kernel – and I think Google will want to continue to use its own scheduling.

For the Pixel phones, what would likely be a bigger differentiation, is how Google will handle the software side of things. We already saw Qualcomm’s SoC in a mass of handsets from a variety of vendors, and it performed excellently in every one of them. Hardware wise the new Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are powered by this year’s Snapdragon 845 processor.

The Pixel 2 phones have been relatively successful phones for Google and grown to have a notable following. Here’s the summary of the new hardware of software of Google’s new flagship smartphone for the end of 2018.


It has likely been the most leaked phone in existence, and while there’s a lot we’ve known about the new Pixel 3’s – today Google has finally officially announced the new devices at its launch event in New York.
