Google is expected to release the Pixel 3 series flagships (Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL) sometime this year. However, information from Roland Quandt, a well-known leakster, suggests that Google is developing a mid-range Pixel smartphone which will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 chipset and it is scheduled to arrive in the first half of 2019.
