Google brings back the 3.5 mm headphone jack with the leaked Pixel 3 Lite

A new mid-range Google Pixel handset has leaked via reliable Russian leaker Rozetked.

The purported Google Pixel 3 Lite is a mid-range handset with a Snapdragon 670 processor and otherwise mainstream specs, but interestingly features a 3.5 mm headphone jack.

While this would have been 100% usual 2-3 years ago, in 2018 this is becoming an increasingly uncommon connector, with Google’s own Pixel 2 and Pixel 3 handsets devoid of the legacy port.

The handset otherwise features:

• 5.56-inch IPS display, 2220×1080
• Qualcomm Snapdragon 670
• Adreno 615
• 4GB of RAM
• 32GB of storage (no microSD card slot)
• 2,915 mAh battery
• 12MP rear camera, dual LED flash
• 8MP front camera
• Android 9 Pie
• USB Type-C, 3.5mm headphone jack

The release date for the handset has not been leaked yet, but given Google sieve-like security we should know sooner rather than later.
