Since the inception of the Pixel line, Google has been playing catchup with the iPhone, as each new model proved more conclusively that the iPhone was the obvious inspiration for Google’s premium phones. The first Pixel looked a lot like the iPhone 7; the second-gen dumped the 3.5mm headphone jack just like the iPhone did a year earlier; the Pixel 3 XL came with a notch, albeit a much uglier one that what Apple did, and Android 9 replicated the iPhone X’s new navigation gestures. With the Pixel 4, Google will copy even more of Apple’s iPhone design playbook, bringing 3D face authentication to the Pixel line alongside native Android support for the feature (two years after the iPhone X), as well as a multi-lens camera on the back (several years after the iPhone). But the Pixel 4 will also introduce a feature that the iPhone 11 doesn’t have, and that’s the Project Soli radar-based gesture support that’s already confirmed for the handset. Now, a brand new leak tells us the Pixel 4 might have one more advantage over the iPhone 11 this year.
