Processor, memory and storage

When it comes to the core specs, there’s a predictable

upgrade to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 – the

firm’s flagship processor for 2018. Memory remains at

just 4GB (despite rumours of a 50 percent increase).

You need to choose from 64- or 128GB of storage.

The Pixel 3 might not be setting any records in our

benchmark tests, although 61fps in T-Rex appears to

have gone beyond the limit, but the phone is super

smooth in real life, so you needn’t worry on this front.
