Search engine and technology giant Google on October 9 launched the third generation of Google Pixel smartphones – the Google Pixel 3 and Google Pixel 3 XL. The Pixel 3-series smartphones get dual front cameras, new format screens, software improved imaging capabilities and support for fast wireless charging. These smartphones will be available in black, not pink and clear white colours from November 1. However, before the Pixel 3 sale, Cupertino, the US-based technology giant Apple would also be launching the iPhone XR, the most affordable smartphone in the company’s current generation line-up.

Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL

The Pixel 3-series has a glass-metal-glass design with a matte paint covering the lower back side. Though these phones continue with a single primary camera, they now have a dual camera module on the front for selfies. Both the phones are powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 system-on-chip, paired with 4GB of RAM. The Pixel 3 has a 5.5-inch 18:9 aspect ratio OLED screen of fullHD+ resolution. 

Apple iPhone XR

The iPhone XR has a 6.1-inch LCD screen of 1792 x 828 resolution. Like the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, the display supports wide colour gamut with colour management system. The screen supports tap to wake feature and Apple True Tone technology, which uses six-channel light sensor to subtly adjust the white balance on screen to match the colour temperature of the surrounding light. In terms of imaging, the iPhone XR features a 12-megapixel camera on the back of f/1.8 aperture size and wide angle lens. The camera is backed by optical image stabilisation.
