The rumours of Google’s next Pixel flagship phone are quietly making their way to the internet, and recent posts show us glimpse of the upcoming Pixel 4 series, at least the renders of it.
The revelation was made by Steve H. McFly, who goes by the Twitter alias OnLeaks and the post clearly gives us a tease of what Google might be working on behind the scenes. The tweet below shows us a silhouette look at the Pixel 4, which will be launching around October this year.
And as you can see here, the renders are strikingly similar to the design of Apple iPhone XI series, which will be introduced few months before Google’s product makes its way to the public.
The report mentions that the Google Pixel 4 will not get a physical fingerprint scanner for the first time. Which means, Google is finally ready to equip its device with an in-display sensor, something that Samsung and OnePlus have already done with their devices.
But we’re more intrigued to see how Google adopts the face-recognition feature on the Pixel 4 series this year. Having said that, the most headlining part of the Pixel 4 render is the rear camera setup. This suggests Google might offer not one or two but possibly three camera sensors at the back.
This design, in all probability will be limited to the XL variant of the Pixel 4 but it’s nevertheless a big change in design of the phone, when compared with its predecessors.
And if those design changes haven’t turned your head enough, we’re talking about the phone loaded with the latest hardware. Google will offer the Pixel 4 with Snapdragon 855, bumping up RAM up to 6GB hopefully, and storage space up to 256GB. What’ll really make the deal sweeter is the support for dual-SIM on the Google Pixel phone.
Only if Google can make this all happen in one go, and for its prices, we’re honestly not asking a lot here from the search giant.
