A plastic Google Pixel 3 Lite prototype with a headphone jack leaks

There's been speculation that a budget version of the Google Pixel 3 could emerge before the end of the year, but no announcement was made in October when the regular Pixel 3 phones launched. However, pictures and specs of what appears to be a Pixel 3 Lite prototype have just emerged, featuring a standard 3.5mm headphone jack and Snapdragon 670. Everything comes from an anonymous source that provided the information to Rozetked (Rozetked leaked the Pixel 3 XL, giant notch and all, earlier this year). Given the accuracy of the Pixel 3 XL leaks, this prototype could be the real deal.

The overall device is similar to the Pixel 3, but swaps premium glass for plastic and adds a headphone jack, which hasn't been in any of the other Pixel phones. Leaked specs include:

5.56-inch IPS display with a resolution of 2,220 x 1,080.
Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 670
Adreno 615 GPU
4GB of RAM
32GB of internal storage
2,915mAh battery
12MP rear camera / 8MP front-facing camera

According to the anonymous source, who claims to have used the prototype for awhile, the camera is the same as the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, so you'd be getting one of the major benefits of the flagships in a cheaper, plastic package (with lighter specs). If this is real and priced at around $450, we could have a sleeper hit on our hands.

Apple is postponing new iOS features in favor of reliability and performance

Apple has decided to postpone new features in iOS in favor of improving the reliability and performance of the operating system, as according to a report by Axios. According to the report, Craig Federighi, Senior Vice President, Software Engineering, announced the revised plan to employees at a meeting earlier this month. This pushes features like refresh of the homescreen and in-car user interface, improvements to core apps like Mail and camera experience to 2019. What we will get this year is improvements to AR, digital health and parental controls. Apart from that, the OS will largely feature improvements to performance and user experience. We have seen Apple do this with macOS in the past, where they dedicate one entire update cycle to just refining the OS and make existing features work better. However, we have never quite seen Apple do that on iOS. This is largely due to the hyper competitive nature of the mobile market where competition and customer demands push companies t
