Oohh.... If this is true, it's gonna tick A LOT of people off.... That's a good way to lose loyal customers if your phone line...

I guess the 6GB is needed with the lower processor to take some load off to get the overall performance they wanted.... Makes sense

It won't help a slow processor.

[Lepa79]

Google should have had 6 GB of RAM for pixel 3 and 3 xl ESPECIALLY for the price they are asking for these phones. End of story. They messed up.

[HyperM3]

From what I read, I could be wrong, it looks like only the 3XL Lite is getting the 6gb of RAM, not the regular 3 Lite. Anyway, maybe Im using my phone wrong but I never had any issues with how much RAM it has(or doesnt have).

[18t]

Sure, I would prefer to have 6gb, but I really don't care. I think the pixel 3 will continue to perform well with 4gb.

[Zendroid1]

My 3 XL works just fine so I am not concerned in the slightest.

[Jeremy8000]

I don't feel my 3 XL performance is in any way compromised, so don't mind it - in fact, I appreciate it - if they are to introduce models now in 2019 with >4GB RAM, we can rest assured the 4 and 4XL will be similarly upgraded.

[Robisan]

Even if it's true I'm not concerned.

My very first thought was concern that Mike Dee's head might have exploded, so I'm very relieved to see this.

The more concerning thing is the apparent return of inferior specs in the smaller phone. I thought Google was passed that. Evidently they're more interested in the PR of a 'starting at' the lowest price they can do rather than ensuring people who prefer smaller phones have the same performance and user experience. Sad.

Why would my head explode? I'm very happy with the Pixel 3XL as is. What they put in their basic phone if and when we see it has no impact on my life.

If/when the P3/P3XL Lite arrive on the scene, and if they have 6GB RAM, then I may care/comment. Nah, who am I kidding, I won't care one little bit.

In the words of that famous Naval Captain, Merrill Stubing, "I don't need to no ram, I got torpedoes"

Well you are pretty adamant that anything more than 4gb is of no value and thus unnecessary for pure Android.

Those are not my words and I don't explode, but as far as I'm concerned it's not necessary for the Pixel 3 or 3 XL based on my user experience. We can speculate all we want on why the rumoured device may have more RAM. I don't think it will compensate for the slower processor and I have no interest in that phone.

[anon(10092459)]

I am mixed about this rumored device. I'm not confident that it will see the light of day, but if rumors are true I'm not sure what to make of the strategy behind it.

Regarding hardware decisions, like adding RAM, I'm indifferent. Doesn't really matter to me much either way.

I have no thoughts on these phone , to me I have the best 2 Google phones Google came out with pixel 3xl and pixel 2xl
even if the pixel 3xl didn't come out yet and only had the pixel 2xl still wouldn't give those phones a thought.

I still don't see the point in these phones except maybe for the overseas Market. I'm sure there are better mid-ranger deals out there but I guess if somebody wants to say they have a pixel that it might make sense for them. I'd buy a 2XL before I bought this thing.

I totally agree
On why they would bring these to the market my only guess would be overseas. But they have too many phones to compete against I don't think they survive .

[worldsoutro]

wow Google is using no lube on the ones that bought a p3 😂

[I Can Be Your Hero]

If true, I think it'd be absolutely ridiculous that Google's budget phone has more ram that their flagships.

[Itsa_Me_Mario]

Why would it tick anyone off, let alone A LOT of people?

[KillerQ]

I just mean, if we paid $999 for the Google Pixel 3XL, and the $500 3xl light performs better, that will make a lot of people mad.

[Itsa_Me_Mario]

What makes you think it performs better? And at what?

[ptkelly]

I just mean, if we paid $999 for the Google Pixel 3XL, and the $500 3xl light performs better, that will make a lot of people mad.

And if they sold it for $99...oh, wait, we don't know how much RAM there will be, what the performance will be like, how much it will cost, what kind of display it will have but some can get their knickers in a twist over what-iifs.

I thought my Pixel 2 was great and still do. I just got my Pixel 3 and I am enjoying it. No lag. No stutter. No notch. No problem involving hardware.
