The Google Pixel 3 XL Reportedly Photographed Out in the Wild

We have seen images of what is believed to be the screen protectors for the upcoming Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, and now we’re getting a look at what’s believed to be the latter handset out in the wild.

The images were shared to the XDA Forums recently, and appear to show what is oft-rumored to be the Pixel 3 XL. The front of the device looks like a lot of different smartphones out there, offering a big display and thin bezels — on the sides, at least. The image of the front of the handset shows a notch at the top, which isn’t too surprising. And there is a chin on the bottom of the display, too.

That being said, it’s the back of the phone that seems to confirm we’re looking at the Pixel 3 XL. There appears to be an additional sensor on the back, between the flash and the rear camera. But there is also that familiar glass design on the back, with a fingerprint reader just below that. This definitely looks like a Pixel smartphone.

The device in the image boasts an unlocked bootloader, and the serial number has been blocked out. The text does seem to indicate the handset has 4GB of RAM and 128GB of built-in storage, though. What’s more, that notch appears to be hosting a pair of front-facing cameras, so it’s likely we’ll get a face unlock feature with this handset, too.

What do you think? Is this the Google Pixel 3 XL?
