Oh, Hello There Pixel 4 Pictures!

Google Pixel 4

The Google Pixel 4, in the clearest real world photos to date, has surfaced.

Today, we got fresh photos that show both the front and back of a Pixel 4 or Pixel 4 XL with all of its front sensors and bezel, as well as that square camera housing on the back. We can also see that whoever posted these photos was using the phone on Sprint and took them today, August 27.

Where’d they come from? XDA’s Mishaal Rahman posted them to his Twitter account, saying that they had been passed around a private Telegram group today. He made them public looking for help to verify their legitimacy.

Outside of the general design, we can gather that the super-thin side has a white power button and the backside is a glossy glass, more than likely. The rear camera there is rumored to be made up of a flash, ToF sensor, 12MP regular camera, and a 16MP telephoto lens.

There is no indication on the front screen that there is a fingerprint reader of any kind, but the phone does show that it was unlocked, probably through face unlock (or smart lock). We know that Google is using a system of sensors, including a Soli radar chip, to add advanced face unlock to the Pixel 4 and this might be showing that in action. We feared that Google may completely ditch fingerprint sensors altogether.

That’s about all we’re taking away from here. It’s hard to know if this is the regular Pixel 4 or the larger 4 XL. We can’t see the bottom of the phone to know of speaker placement or ports. The software isn’t really revealing much either, since it’s just a lock screen.

Oh, there’s no 100% confirmation that these are real, but they sure look good. If something changes on that front, we’ll be sure to update this post.

What are you seeing? You liking this?

Motorola’s foldable Razr phone may be announced before year’s end

-
While Samsung’s saga with the Galaxy Fold appears to finally be coming to an end , there are other foldables destined to be released soon. The Huawei Mate X is the other big name, but it has been delayed a couple of times as well. The other foldable device that we’ve heard about a few times is the rumored Motorola Razr reboot, and a new report claims an announcement is coming this year still. Earlier this year, reports suggested Motorola would launch its foldable phone this summer. That time has come and gone without a peep from Motorola, but a new report claims it’s still coming this year. This information comes from a person close to the company speaking to CNET . It’s unlikely that the device will actually be sold this year, but we should at least see the device before 2020. Motorola has already confirmed that they are working on a foldable smartphone. The “Razr” name was also confirmed by a Bluetooth certification. We exclusively reported on the specifications of the device ,...

Behind Dynamic System Updates in Android Q: How Google is using Project Treble to improve future Android releases

-
Image
Alongside the release of Android 8.0 Oreo, Google unveiled Project Treble : a major rearchitecting in the way the Android OS framework and the vendor HALs and Linux kernel communicate. Treble is a major initiative designed to reduce Android platform version and security patch fragmentation , and all Android-branded devices launching with Android Pie are required to support Project Treble. OEMs and vendors test Treble compatibility by booting a Generic System Image (GSI)—a pure stock build of Android from AOSP—and passing the Vendor Test Suite (VTS) and Compatibility Test Suite-on-Generic System Image (CTS-on-GSI). The GSI has proven useful in not only allowing software engineers working for OEMs test Treble compatibility, but it has also opened the door for a large custom ROM community on XDA. For the Android Q release, Google wants to make GSIs useful for another group: app developers. Since the first stable release and source code drop of any given Android platform release usual...
