We’re roughly 11 hours away from the officially announcement for the Google Pixel phones, which is about the right time to see yet another leak of the two devices.
Over the weekend Canadian and UK retailers “accidentally” leaked images and details of both the Google Pixel and Pixel XL, today it is the turn of U.S carrier Verizon.
The new leak comes care of Verizon’s Enterprise service, the arm of the company that sells phones and services to businesses rather than us regular Joes. Once again the early posting shows both Pixel and Pixel XL in Silver or White, but there is also a Blue version of the phone revealed too.

At this stage we aren’t sure if Blue will be a Verizon only colour or if other carriers will receive all 3 colour options or not. Another leaked feature is something called “Google Magic”. Again we can only guess at what this might be, but suggestions are it is another name for Google’s new Siri rival or it could be the name for a new gesture control mechanism.
Google will officially announced the Pixel phones at an event later today. Each device is believed to come with a Snapdragon 821 chipset, 4GB RAM, 12 megapixel rear camera and OIS. The smaller 5-inch phone will get a 1920 x 1080 display while the XL will have a 2K 5.5-inch panel/

Man, they are some seriously ugly phones if they are indeed real. The top and bottom bezels in particular remind me of 2012 when they were in fashion! When even budget manufacturers have been making some seriously sexy phones this year, what’s Google’s excuse for this abomination???
Disguisting
screen / body ratio is so low O.o
who the hell gonna buy this crap
Google, inexplicably so, likes big bezels. I mean the rest at least use it (by putting buttons on them), in google’s case they just prefer gigantic ChinS. I mean what’s the point? They could at least put a fingerprint scanner there.
