I have no idea how true that leaked case pic is? But if so, looks to be the Pixel 3 XL notch, but minimized, almost like what the iPhone 12 Pro is rumored to have, with extremely minimal side and bottom bezels.
Basically this looks like the Android version of the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Whcih to me is not cool, I despise notches, much rather have the forehead and a straight screen across the top.

As others have said ti does look like the P3 not the P5. It even has the cut out for the rear FPS.
Didn't even pay attention to the rear fps. Can't see them going back to that on their flagship.
I don't see them going backward to a FPS for the Pixel 5 either
That leaked case is 100% ********. A notch for face unlock software and a rear FP sensor? Yeah, not a chance.
A bunch of websites today have been leaking supposedly the rumored Pixel 5 phone, and it sounds more like a Pixel 4.5, or even somewhat of a downgrade from the 4 XL.
No more Face ID, going back to rear FPS. Smaller screen size. Mediocre specs which I'm okay with. not sure about other details but so far this looks extremely underwhelming.

I've seen some say that it's likely the leak of the now canceled 4a XL.
also OnLeaks, who has a stellar record with leaks, said it's very doubtful:
Jon Prosser, that guy seems like such a tool, always making up BS, and loves to make YouTube videos with early wrong rumors, but try to pass off as legit. So if he's involved here, it's totally wrong then, and probably just some BS rumor.
So here's to hoping the Pixel 5 XL is night and day better than this crap rumor.

I hope so...
But first, Google needs to release the 4a. Seriously, where the heck is that phone!?
What has he missed on? I don’t follow him on Twitter but in regards to Apple rumors over the past 6 months, wasn’t he pretty spot on?
I haven't paid attention to that guy since last year I blocked all of his social media cuz he always seemed to run with the rumors galore or just repeat tech news that's already been said by others.
Looks like there may not be a Pixel 5XL..

Leak Throws Huge Twist in Google Pixel 5 Story
Google is having quite the week, and I don’t necessarily mean that in a good way for a company who might want to keep its upcoming products a secret. After seeing their new Nest Home speaker outed fully, we now know the names of all three of their phones for this year: Pixel 4a... #Google #Pixel4a
Can't see them not releasing a 5XL, no matter what some rumours suggest. Pixels have a bit of a niche following and they'll alienate a lot Pixel fans if they only have a smaller size. Particularly if it has crap battery life like the smaller Pixel 4.Looks like there may not be a Pixel 5XL..

No XL, then no buy.
I've had the Pixel 2 XL, 3 XL, and currently the 4 XL.
I'd never go for the tiny Pixel and small battery. No way.

I'll admit, the article hurts me. I have a 2XL and am definitely due to upgrade this year (expensive year for me, new MBP, new tablet possibly and a new phone) so I'd be wanting the 5xl. Maybe it'll only be the larger size with no XL designation since the 4a is coming at the same time?
I hope the Pixel 5 is €399 like the One Plus Nord that’s just been announced...
Could be in trouble otherwise.

Will be such a shame if they drop the face unlock from the 5 and go back to the FPS.
yeah that likely means a no buy for me. I think the Google implementation of biometric facial unlocking is the best in the business. It would be a step backwards for me coming from the 4XL to anything that didn't have face unlock.
Curious to what makes you think it is the best in the business ? Personal experience ? Having had the Pixel 4 and owning the iPhone 11 Pro I think they are as equal as they can be. The speed difference is so little that should not make a difference to anyone. I tested them over and over again and I never could see a difference in how fast they unlocked compared to each other.
