Google will unveil the Pixel 4 and 4 XL on October
15, and just two days ahead of the official announcement, these
fourth-gen Pixels have been listed on Best Buy Canada's website with their
images and specs. The images we are looking at here don't reveal anything new and show
the Just Black and Clearly White variants we have seen before.
However, the listing includes the promo material,
which tells us that the software on Pixel 4 will help us take studio-like
photos anywhere. It also emphasizes that capturing pictures with the Pixel 4 is
simple - just point and shoot. There's "nothing new to learn and no
editing required".
The promo material further reveals that Pixel 4 will
come with Quick Gestures, which will let you do things without touching the
phone. The material also confirms original quality unlimited backup on Google
Photos for Pixel 4 users.
The listing also includes a specs comparison of the
Pixel 4 duo with the Pixel 3 XL, and it corroborates the specs that leaked last
week. However, it's worth noting that the specs table includes only Face Unlock
for authentication, hinting at Google ditching the in-display fingerprint
reader on the Pixel 4 and 4 XL. We will have to wait till next Tuesday to be
sure.
If you are interested, you can pre-order the 64GB
model of the Pixel 4 or 4 XL for CAD 50 (US$ 40/€ 30).
