If there was one development that needed an official confirmation, it had to be about the colour options for the upcoming Pixel 4 devices. It has been reported that the Pixel 4 and the Pixel 4 XL smartphones will launch in three colours: black, white and coral -- an orangish-shade. Images of a phone with Coral back panel have been making rounds on the internet and now, Google has confirmed the existence of the colour via an advertisement on a digital billboard in New York’s famous Times Square.
Google has had a history of launching phones in distinct colours with odd names. For example, the Pixel 2 came in ‘Kinda Blue’ colour option, and the XL model had a ‘Panda’ (black and white) variant. The Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL were launched with ‘Not Pink’ colour and recently-launched Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL got ‘Purple-ish’ hue. The Pixel 4’s ‘Coral’ colour is likely to launch alongside the regular black and white colour options.
Recently, a 14-minute long video posted on YouTube channel Rabbit TV showed the Pixel 4 smartphones in three colour variants - white, black and coral. You can watch the video below. Google will announce the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL smartphones as well as a couple of other Made by Google products on October 15 in New York.
According to rumours and leaks, the Pixel 4 devices will come equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset, 6GB of RAM, and dual rear cameras. The camera setup on the back is said to include a 12MP main sensor and a 16MP sensor with telephoto lens. The smaller Pixel 4 is likely to get a 5.7-inch 90Hz 1080p+ OLED display and a 2,800 mAh battery, while the XL may ship with a 6.3-inch 90Hz 1440p+ OLED panel and 3,700 mAh cell.
