Pixel 3 XL hands-on video
TL;DR
  • A Russian YouTuber has released another video showing the Google Pixel 3 XL.
  • The YouTuber claims the Pixel 3 XL has an improved display and a vibration system on par with the iPhone.
  • The camera was also praised.

After a ton of leaks, it seems like we have already found out pretty much everything there is to know about the Google Pixel 3 XL. However, that hasn’t stopped Rezetked, the Russian YouTube channel behind some of the original leaks, from sharing another video.

Rezetked claims that the Pixel 3 XL has a new vibration system with feedback that is similar, or perhaps even better than, the one on the iPhone. While a nice upgrade, this isn’t the type of thing that is likely to persuade anyone to actually buy the device.

More important perhaps, is that Rezetked claims the Pixel 3 XL takes better pictures than both the Galaxy Note 9 and the iPhone XS despite having only one rear camera. While this is subjective, the camera on the Pixel 2 was highly regarded and it wouldn’t be surprising if the Pixel 3 XL continues the trend of Pixel devices having good cameras.

A final point is that the YouTube channel says the display is an improvement over the one on the Google Pixel 2 XL. Assuming you don’t mind the huge notch, of course.

While the video doesn’t mention specs, previous leaks have suggested the device will get a 3,430mAh battery, 4GB RAM (not a lot, these days), 64GB storage, a 12.2MP rear camera, and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. It is also said that the device will get three front-facing 8.1MP cameras.

Despite the apparent authenticity of these Pixel 3 XL leaks, we still don’t know for sure if this is what Google is planning. To find out exactly what Google has in store for its new Pixel phones, we’ll have to wait until the official presentation on October 9.
