This year, Google is finding it difficult to keep its upcoming third generation of Pixel smartphones under wraps because, in just a few weeks, there have been a plethora of leaks suggesting and showing various aspects of the upcoming Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL smartphones.
Today, yet another Pixel 3 XL leak broke out on the web when a supposedly ‘hands-on’ video was leaked where the user is spilling beans the actual front and back of the smartphone with its retail box filled with all the accessories that users will receive as well as the sample shots taken from Pixel 3 XL’ camera units.
According to the reports, sellers based in Russian got hold of some units of Google Pixel 3 XL which has been creating a lot of buzz with various leaks periodically releasing on the web. The seller posted photos of Pixel 3 XL’ hands-on which reveals a number of details such as it has a notch taller compared to any other smartphone. Further, it has a thick chin as well.
The photos also reveal that Pixel 3 XL sports the same half glass and metal fused back panel which of course is it USP and that’s what makes it a unique exposition to buy. Citing previous leaks, we can see the white-colored Pixel 3 XL which looks brilliant and slays with slightly chromatic shade on buttons on the sides.
The retail box for Google Pixel 3 XL offers Pixel Buds as well as Type-C to Type-C cable, a 3.5mm to Type-C converter, and a USB to Type-C converter, and then there are brands that offer no audio jack and expect its users to buy accessories as an addon and not as included.

We know that glass is a perfect medium and more of a compulsory element for transmission of power using a wireless charging and citing the leaks on Pixel 3 XL sporting wireless charging capability, it isn’t too difficult to understand that it might have wireless charging feature but again, it isn’t compulsory since OnePlus chose not to offer wireless charging even with the glass back on OnePlus 6.
Finally, the camera – Google Pixel 3 XL will probably come with a single lens at the back similar to its predecessors and that’s something Google deems fit for its series since almost every brand now has a dual-camera setup at the back which might look stunning but it isn’t always required. The particular leak shows the photos compared using front camera and well as a rear camera in regular and portrait mode which is oddly satisfying.
But since it is a much-awaited Pixel 3 XL, we have of leaks, rumors, and renders that will be posted on the web until it finally launched officially sometime in October this year. What we know here is that Pixel 3 XL will have a larger than largest screen of any smartphone at 6.71-inch with a screen resolution of 2960 x 1440 with a dimensions of 73 x 154mm which is ironically similar to Pixel 2 XL, however, the upcoming iteration has a larger screen with deeper bezels on both top and bottom which could be off-putting.
Everything I mentioned above regarding the ‘Hands-on’ review of Google Pixel 3 XL is from a seller who is actually selling the pre-released units of Pixel 3 XL (yet to be launched) in the black market at a price tag of $2,000.
