Google Pixel 3 XL Specifications and Images Are Leaked Onto the Web

Camera quality out of the way, my OnePlus 3T 128GB has served me well for the past year and a half. No way in hell am I going to spend double what I paid for on a new flagship phone with lesser RAM and no headphone jack.
 
I can't understand why some of the hardware seems so underwhelming. I'm sure this is going to debut for "Pixel money", so why are they stuck with 4GB of RAM on the XL variety? Hell, the Samsung S9+ , OnePlus 6, and Razer Phone all offered 6gb or 8gb options earlier in the year. Are The 845 is nothing to sneeze at of course, but lets be honest that it seems that Pixel devices seem to be released at the end of the year and towards the end of SoC availability loop etc... which makes them feel weak by comparison compared to say a Q1 release with a new chipset/SoC or whatnot. Likewise, what about the camera hardware? I've read that Pixel devices tend to depend on Google's software to make their pictures look better as opposed to the actual camera setup itself etc...?

I have a Nexus 6 (Motorola made, not 6p) and I had hoped to upgrade with the Pixel 3 line but I expected it to be a step beyond the Pixel 2 in terms of hardware and to justify its price by, at time of release, offering top tier hardware and features across the board.
 
None of the Pixels interest me and this is no exception
Now it just looks like an iPhone clone

Its all about the camera for me, so I might get a P20 Pro next.
Have an S8 and am so bored of Samsung and their bloatware
 
Nexus 6P = Good on release, felt the same after battery replacement and full reformat.. Ran fine on 8.0. After 8.1 it went downhill, things got slower.. noticeably, i use snapchat but that was unbearable after updates. Horrid battery drain.

Pixel XL = Fast, Fast.. still fast... hated the one speaker only that i kept blocking (vs. N6P), it was still a good phone, even for a quad core. The well known motherboard faults were there tho.. black screens, discharge to boot etc..

Pixel 2 = I went back down in size so I can go 1 handed mode again, took a little to get used to. Not a fan of the thick bezel for the price and year it came out but it felt like a Nexus 6P mini. Thing is fast af, everything is still snappy even with Android 9, battery slightly improved I think.. i was at like 3h SOT and been watching youtube vids and still had like 65-70% battery while I was out in Tokyo (using ProjectFi).

As much as I want a Pixel 3 (my plan initially) mainly for the smaller bezel and looks.. the SD845 + 4GB of ram is a meh for me.. especially now that SD855 is coming out and 6-8GB ram is becoming a standard. Now Pixel 2 still has 4GB of ram and still snappy but I'm sure after a few more OS updates it will start to show its age.

"is it curved?" , "is it slim?" ... it's a phone (you know, a tool), not a woman

Nexus 6 = May not quite be a Nokia 3310 but fuck if it hasn't aged well. Still use mine daily and won't be downgrading anytime soon.

Just like cars, newer =/= better.

Bought my Pixel 2 for the camera. Until there is a huge least there, I don't see purchasing another phone.
