The most anticipated and phone of 2019 Google Pixel 4 and 4 XL, might launch on October 15, according to a promotional image of the device shared by American tech blogger and venture Beat Journalist Evan Blass.

The image shows that the device will have a large bezel at the top and it might not have a physical fingerprint sensor anywhere.

Evan Blass who goes by name @evleaks on Twitter with a comment saying: “Google Fall Event: 10/15?”

Google has earlier revealed that the Pixel 4 XL is powered by the Snapdragon 855 chipset, and not the 855+. In addition, the devices would feature a new Motion Mode for action scenes, an enhanced Night Sight feature and would offer 8x zoom and astrophotography mode as well, as per the report on Wednesday on The Verge.

The new Motion Mode is said to allow users to capture high-quality action shots with moving subjects with quality bokeh.

The Night Sight feature would include speed-related enhancements, allowing the phone to take better pictures at night.

Google has teased that the Pixel 4 camera will be able to let users zoom up close as well as do astrophotography (clicking star-lit sky at night).

However, the 8x zoom feature is dicey, as it is unclear whether the camera would feature optical zoom or a combination of both optical and digital.
