Google Pixel 3 Lite with mid-range specs shows up in live pictures

The Pixel 3 Lite is a watered-down version of Google's current flagships, a phone that made headlines less than two weeks ago. Now we get to see the phone in the flash thanks to several pictures that have been published today by XDA Developers.
The unannounced mid-range handset sports a 5.56-inch IPS display with 2220 x 1080 pixels resolution and packs a 2,915 mAh battery. Surprisingly, it does include a 3.5mm audio jack too, but there's no microSD card slot.
By the look of it, the Pixel 3 Lite is a prototype that will never see a market release, so don't get your hopes for a cheaper Pixel smartphone too high. Still, it's nice to know that Google is experimenting with different hardware configurations, even if many of these prototypes remain just that – prototypes.
