Google is reportedly mixing up the color options for its Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL smartphones.

Droid Life discovered a Pixel 3 promo page that appears to reveal three different color options. "Coming soon," the page reads alongside the outline of a phone. Clicking the "G" logo on the phone lets you check out each color: black, white, and mint.

Last year's Pixel 2 came in black, white, and a pale "kinda blue" shade. The original Pixel came in silver, black, and a bold "really blue" shade.

Meanwhile, images posted to the XDA-Developers forums late last month appear to show off the white version of the larger XL variant. Rumors indicate that the Pixel 3 XL will feature an all-glass back to allow for wireless charging and a large notch at the top of the display. The Pixel 3 is said to be notchless.

It won't be long before Google officially shows off the new Android Pie handsets. The web giant's Pixel event is scheduled for Oct. 9 at 11 a.m. ET. PCMag will be there, so stay tuned for more.

In other smartphone news, Android Headlines got its hands on a photo purportedly showing the new Razer Phone 2, and it's a bit of a letdown. If the photo is indeed legit, the side bezels on the Razer Phone 2 may be a tad bigger than those on the original Razer Phone, but the front of the Razer Phone 2 otherwise looks pretty much identical to the front of its predecessor.

"Razer does not seem intent on changing the design in any meaningful way – at least when it comes to the front of the device," the site reported.

My Experience

I'm PCMag's managing editor for consumer electronics, overseeing an experienced team of analysts covering smart home, home entertainment, wearables, fitness and health tech, and various other product categories. I have been with PCMag for more than 10 years, and in that time have written more than 6,000 articles and reviews for the site. I previously served as an analyst focused on smart home and wearable devices, and before that I was a reporter covering consumer tech news. I'm also a yoga instructor, and have been actively teaching group and private classes for nearly a decade. 

Prior to joining PCMag, I was a reporter for SC Magazine, focusing on hackers and computer security. I earned a BS in journalism from West Virginia University, and started my career writing for newspapers in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

The Technology I Use

My little Florida beach bungalow is brimming with smart home tech. I have a smart speaker or display in every room, allowing me to control other connected devices by voice. The Nest Hub on my bedside table lets me set wake-up alarms, control my smart light bulbs, and set the temperature on my smart thermostat. I use the Amazon Echo Show 8 on my kitchen counter to browse recipes, reorder protein powder, check the weather, and watch the news while I do dishes. 

Because I suffer from allergies, air purifiers are essential. My favorite model is the Dyson Purifier Cool TP07, which doubles as a fan and continuously sends indoor pollution data to its companion mobile app. 

My pitbull Bradley sheds, so a good robot vacuum is a must. I currently use a premium Ecovacs Deebot that can both vacuum and mop, empty its own dustbin, and wash its own mop cloth. 

For fitness, I like to mix up my routine with cycling, indoor rowing, running, and strength training in addition to yoga. I take classes on the Tonal 2 smart strength training machine, I row indoors on an Aviron machine, and track my beach runs with an Apple Watch while listening to music on my Apple AirPods Pro. On the weekends, I love riding e-bikes like the rugged, beach-friendly Aventon Aventure for fun and fitness.

My job involves a lot of virtual meetings, so a quality webcam, microphone, and ring light are important. I use the Jabra PanaCast 20 webcam, the Elgato Wave: 3 microphone, and a Yesker tripod ring light. 

As for my preferred phone platform, I'm an iPhone person, but I've also extensively used Android for product testing.
