The rumor mill is going into overdrive ahead of Google's big event on Oct. 4 and the highly anticipated Pixel XL just leaked in 3D, 360-degree renders that leave little — if anything — to the imagination.
Just like last year, Google is expected to launch not one, but two new smartphones. Unlike last year, however, the two new handsets will reportedly launch under the new Pixel line rather than the old Nexus family.
Nevertheless, the two smartphones are reportedly made by HTC in collaboration with Google and are expected to launch as the Google Pixel and Pixel XL. A slew of leaks have tried to paint a picture of what's to come and the latest one unveils the purported Pixel XL in all its glory, in 360-degree renders that show off its full design.
The latest leak now comes from trusted tipster @OnLeaks, who sheds light on the alleged dimensions of the larger Pixel XL. For those unfamiliar with recent rumors, the Pixel XL is expected to sport a 5.5-inch display, while the Pixel should have a 5-inch screen.

Looking at the new 3D images and 360-degree rendering, it seems that the upcoming Google Pixel XL will rock a glass plate on the rear, covering its main camera and fingerprint scanner.
The smartphone also boasts a metal frame with sloping edges, an USB Type-C port at the bottom, and a stereo speaker. The handset also has a headphone jack at the top, unlike Apple's latest iPhone 7 series.
The Google Pixel XL is further expected to sport a 12-megapixel rear camera with dual-LD flash and optical image stabilization (OIS), an 8-megapixel selfie cam, 32 GB and 128 GB storage configurations, and a 3,450 mAh battery.
On the software side, the Google Pixel XL should rock the latest Android 7.1 Nougat straight out of the box, serving as one of the launch vehicles for Google's new mobile OS.
The smartphone is expected to be available in several color options including "Very Silver," "Quite Black" and "Really Blue."
The smaller Google Pixel, codenamed "Sailfish," leaked in a 360-degree video earlier this month, showing off all details of its purported design, and it's now the turn of the larger Pixel XL, codenamed "Marlin," to get the same treatment.
