Google announced the Pixel three and 3 XL with much fanfare in 2018, and we all hoped the issues from the previous generation would be solved. Alas, it was not to be. Google struggled to justify missing features and build quality bug throughout the Pixel 3's run, and now that run has ended. Google confirms it's run out of Pixel 3 and three XL devices.

As is customary, Google connected to sell its previous-generation Pixels later on the Pixel 4 and 4 Twoscore launched. Y'all could option up one of the older devices for roughly half of the initial $800-900 price tag. That wasn't really a bad deal, either. Unlike near Android device makers, Google commits to updating its phones every month for 3 years. While some new phones are still aircraft with Android 9 Pie, the Pixel iii has Android ten and about 18 months of remaining update support.

However, the Google Store of a sudden reported no remaining stock early this week. Google has now confirmed that information technology sold through all its remaining units. Some other retailers might however have the phone for auction, simply its days are conspicuously numbered. Last year, the Pixel 2 and 2 XL left the Google Store around the same fourth dimension, so this isn't much of a surprise.

The Pixel iii and 3 XL were the first Google phones in years to support wireless charging, and the larger of the ii had a display notch. That was all the rage amidst Android phones in 2017-2018. Even if they didn't need the notch, it was a quick and like shooting fish in a barrel way to ape the iPhone. Google'south gigantic Pixel three Twoscore notch fabricated the telephone await lopsided, but it housed a pair of front-facing cameras. The Pixel 4 and 4 Twoscore dropped that feature in favor of a larger bezel with 3D face up unlock sensors.

Throughout the Pixel 3 life cycle, there were signs that sales weren't going well. In an earnings call last spring, Google admitted that the Pixel 3 and three Forty were selling worse than the Pixel ii and ii XL. That was surprising as the second-gen Pixels weren't specially well-received either. Google'south budget-oriented Pixel 3a and 3a XL, on the other hand, sold extremely well and remain some of the best Android phones you tin can purchase. There's still no successor to that telephone — Google was expected to denote the Pixel 4a at the I/O conference this year, but that has been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
