Google teases the Pixel 4, confirms a square camera bump on the back

Google is working on a successor to the Pixel iii in addition to Pixel iii XL, a handset that volition to a greater extent than than probable hold out unveiled inward Oct subsequently this year. Before that happens, though, the rumor manufacturing flora has to produce its thing, revealing details ane past times one. But it turns out Google wants to produce things a flake differently this year.

Following a homecoming that surfaced of the rumored “Pixel 4” recently, Google has decided that it wants to become ahead in addition to truly confirm that render. Not exclusively that, confirm it past times releasing an official icon of the Pixel iv — months earlier it’s truly going to denote the handset.

Google’s official Twitter concern human relationship (@madebygoogle) tweeted out an icon of the Pixel 4, showing off the dorsum of the phone. We larn to meet the familiar “G” logo on the dorsum in addition to a white or grayness ability push clit on the side. But, most importantly, nosotros larn to meet the raise photographic goggle box camera bump. And this is where things larn interesting. We tin meet at to the lowest degree a yoke of cameras, along amongst a 3rd sensor that could hold out an additional camera, inward a large —square— photographic goggle box camera encasement.

You tin meet the icon above. And here’s the tweet from Google:

Well, since in that place seems to hold out to a greater extent than or less interest, hither yous go! Wait 'til yous meet what it tin do. #Pixel4 pic.twitter.com/RnpTNZXEI1

The argue this is then interesting is because of the foursquare photographic goggle box camera bump on the back. Not then much because of the pattern past times itself, but the fact that it appears to hold out very, very reminiscent of what is expected to hold out the pattern Apple is going with for the high-end 2019 iPhone lineup (the iPhone XS in addition to iPhone XS Max successors).

Here’s an early on homecoming of what that could aspect like:

Renders are ane thing, certainly, in addition to to a greater extent than of a fantasy than a leak. However, in that place is additional imagery to advise that Apple is indeed going downwards the road of this foursquare raise photographic goggle box camera bump. We recently reported close representative moldings that surfaced, for instance, each of which confirms the pattern choice:

Google could hold out trying to brand it front end of this for the sole argue that Apple volition denote its 2019 iPhone lineup inward September, earlier Google’s expected unveiling of the Pixel iv inward October. Or it could simply hold out trying to crush the rumor manufacturing flora ahead of time. Either way, this is a really unlike motion on Google’s part.

But, what produce yous intend of the design? That’s the most of import flake here. Do yous similar this raise photographic goggle box camera setup?
