Two phones – likely the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL – hit the FCC
July 14, 2025
With all theGoogle Pixel 3 leakswe’ve been talking about over the past few weeks, we sometimes forget that usually at this point in the release cycle, FCC listings are some of our first looks at new devices.
Butnothing has been normalabout the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL so far.
With that in mind, we now have FCC listings for two Google-branded devices that are almost certainly theGoogle Pixel 3andGoogle Pixel 3 XL. Notably, the FCC listings were filed directly byGoogle, which is a big change from theGoogle PixelandGoogle Pixel 2listings. Those FCC applications were filed by the manufacturers of the devices, specificallyHTCandLG.
Not this time. This time, it’s Google’s name at the top of the filing.
Another interesting tidbit we can glean from these FCC papers is the alleged model numbers of the Pixel 3 line. We can’t be totally certain, obviously, but it looks like the Google Pixel 3 will have the model numberG013Awhile the Google Pixel 3 XL will probably go byG013C.
The Google Pixel 2 was G011A and the Pixel 2 XL was G011C, so it seems to line up perfectly.
Other than that, there’s not much that’s too revelatory in these filings. It looks like the band support for the Pixel 3 line is going to be similar to the Pixel 2, which means it will work on the four major carriers in the United States (even ifVerizonstill has an exclusive for carrier sales, which may or may not be the case).
You can see the full FCC filings for what we assume is the Pixel 3here, and the same for the Pixel 3 XLhere.
