Huge Pixel and Pixel XL leak gives us a good look at the Made by Google phones

Google is expected to unveil its new handsets on Tuesday 4 October and it looks like launch-day images have just leaked, thanks to Canadian carrier Bell.

Rumours have long suggested that Google will be calling these phones the Pixel and Pixel XL and that’s conveniently confirmed, with the Bell website offering the Pixel and Pixel XL phones for pre-order.

Shared via Steve Hemmerstoffer on Twitter, but also appearing at a similar time on Reddit, we’re treated to very clear images of these two Made by Google phones.

The design matches a number of leaks we’ve seen previously, most noticeably from VentureBeat, which displayed phones of the same design.

Thought to be manufactured by HTC, the white Pixel reminds us a lot of the HTC One A9 and if the quality of build is the same then we’d be totally happy. The Pixel is expected to be a 5-inch device, while the Pixel XL is thought to be 5.5 inches.

• Google Pixel and Pixel XL: Release date, rumours and everything you need to know about the next Nexus
• Pixel Launcher: Leak shows the fresh Android face of the Pixel and Pixel XL

From these images alone we can’t draw too many additional conclusions, but what we can see Pixel Launcher that recently leaked, with a new apps tray that opens with a slide up and refreshed home button.

You’ll also notice the round icons. While Chrome has always been round, it looks like Google might be pushing round icons on us.

We’ll know everything on 4 October and we’ll bring you all the confirmed details in a few days.
