Google Pixel 3 XL might not ditch the notch after all, according to a new leak. Tipster Slashleaks has posted an image, apparently that of tampered glass for Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, which reveal a cutout for notch on the higher-end Pixel 3 series phone. However, it looks like Pixel 3 will not come with the controversial notch. The image suggests that Pixel 3 will adopt the same design language as its predecessor. Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL could ship with dual front cameras. The phones could sport dual front-facing speakers, similar to Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL. Google Pixel 3 image render with an edge-to-edge display without the notch was previously leaked by Twitter user Venya Geskin1. Of course, the leaked image renders are not actual confirmation of what the devices will look like. A notch on the next-generation Pixel devices is speculated since Android P now supports this feature. However, what hardware Google picks will only be known when the Pixel 3 is officially launched. The Google Pixel 3 name was confirmed in the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) code for Android P. The search giant recently released the developer edition of Android P and the reports indicate that the term Pixel 3 has officially made an appearance in the AOSP code. The news was first reported by XDA Developers website, which also shared details from the AOSP code. Also read: Android P accepts the notch: So will Google Pixel 3 follow the iPhone X design? It should be noted that Google itself has not revealed anything about the upcoming Pixel 3 series. Typically, Google announces its new smartphones in the October and it is likely the company will stick with the timeline for Pixel 3 as well. Google Pixel 3 is expected to be a premium smartphone series, just like the original Pixel and Pixel 2. Though not much is know about the hardware at this point, we can expect improvements on the camera front.
