Pixel 4 to Come with 90Hz ‘Smooth Display’
Aug. 8, 2019The Pixel 4 has been leaking in more ways than one, including Google, sending out what can only be called “official leaks” about the phone every now and then.
Now, a report from 9to5Google citing a ‘reliable source’ is adding some more information to the mix of what we already know about the Pixel 4.
According to the report, thePixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL will feature 90Hz displayslike the OnePlus 7 Pro, and that Google will brand it “smooth display” — at least it’s not as pretentious as Apple’s “Liquid Retina display” on the iPhone XR.
Anyway, if our experience with other phones featuring a 90Hz display is any hint, Google’s “smooth display” should make the Pixel 4’s user-experience smoother and more natural.
The report also mentions that thePixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL will finally come with 6GB RAMwhich is great news, considering the Pixel 3’s horrendous RAM management — that extra 2GB might just be able to keep apps in memory.
Apart from all that, 9to5Google is reporting that the Pixel 4, with its dual rear camera, will feature a12MP camera, and a 16MP telephoto camera— that sounds plausible, but what’s surprising is the report’s claim thatGoogle is also developing a DSLR-like attachment for the phone. No idea what that could be, but it does sound interesting.
One place where the Pixel 4 might still disappoint is the battery life — the report suggests that the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL will pack in2,800mAh and 3,700mAh battery packsrespectively and that doesn’t sound very nice.
Anyway, Google will be launching the phones in October, and the report goes on to claim that the date will be October 4th, so there’s only a little over a month to go.
