The name Google has become synonymous with the word, "information." It’s always on and always available, wherever there’s a connection. With that, it just makes sense that you’d want it in your hands, at all times.

Whether you've been waiting with bated-breath for the new Google Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL and just want the details, or you're still trying to weigh your options, you've come to the right place.

The New Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL by Google

With these upgrades, we're not afraid to call it: The Best Pixel by Google.

For this release, they've added an additional FRONT facing wide-angle lens. Yeah, you read the right, there are now 2 lenses on the front of the phone. Since the advanced software already adds incredible depth to photos and eliminates the need for an additional camera on the back, they've decided to add a lens to the front of the phone. This change will ensure that your whole group can fit in those epic selfies with less squeezing, twisting, and contorting for the perfect shot. With the new Pixel in hand, you'll be that "go-to friend" for those ever-memorable group-selfies.

If adding another camera to the front of your phone isn't enough to get you excited about the new Pixel 3/3 XL, that's okay. We're confident they've added something for everyone. Check out the list of changes below.

What's Changed?

Dual Lens Front Camera, so everyone can fit into that epic selfie.
Dual Construction Glass on the back, to enable wireless charging.
Google Lens, the AI-camera that identifies everything your camera sees, if you want it to, that is.
Call Screen, which can automatically screen your calls for you. It'll actually ask the caller why they're calling and you can decide from there if you want to take the call or block it.
Titan M Security Chip, to keep all your data safe.
Louder Speakers, you now have 40% louder stereo speaker capacity.
Extras Come Standard, in the box you'll get USB-C headphones, a headphone jack adapter, USB-C to USB-C cable, a Quick Switch Adapter, a SIM key, and a USB-C charger.
