Bloomberg:

Google is working on an upgraded Pixel smartphone line for this fall, including a model with a nearly edge-to-edge screen, seeking to boost revenue for a critically acclaimed phone that has yet to make a major sales impact in the market.

The Alphabet Inc. unit is planning at least two new models, likely to be dubbed the “Pixel 3" and “Pixel 3 XL,“ said people familiar with the matter. The larger phone is designed with a nearly edge-to-edge screen, except for a thicker bezel known as a chin at the bottom of the phone. The display also will have a notch – or a cutout – at the top. The smaller model will look similar to the Pixel 2 and won’t include the notch or edge-to-edge look, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the plans aren’t yet public.

I’m not really someone who typically keeps his finger on the pulse of the Android world, but I was surprised that these phones didn’t make an appearance at Google I/O this year.

I do really want Google to make some kick-ass flagships. Maybe this year will finally sand down the rough edges of the Pixel phone so far.
