It just doesn’t feel like a phone launch without a render appearing from everybody’s favourite man in the know, Evan Blass, but it’s here. Evan has this morning unleashed a render showing the front of both the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL.

We’ve seen both these phones so many times in the flesh already, including again this morning, but we always love a good, clean render and here they are:

The render from such an impeccable source, really lays to rest the silly idea that’s been floating around of a third Pixel 3 phone which is the size of a Pixel 3 XL but without the notch. There really is no solid evidence for its existence, but it’s persisted because of a real hate for that admittedly large bucket sized notch. Well, these renders do show the notch is here, or will be in just over two weeks when Google unveils them at the Made By Google event on October 9th (10th here in Australia) in New York.
