The Pixel 3 lite will be a more petite device compared to the other 3rd generation Google phones, it will have a 5.56” screen. Here’s how it compares with the current Pixel 3 duo as well as a selection of iPhones.
Pixel 3 lite and original Pixel
It’s about same size as the original Pixel (the new Pixel 3 too) and the iPhone XR. The screen is an IPS LCD panel with 1,080 x 2,220px resolution (18.5:9), a departure from the AMOLED-only 3rd generation.

The Google Pixel 3 lite will be a mid-ranger powered by Snapdragon 670 with 4GB of RAM (same as the Pixel 3) and only 32GB storage (non-expandable). On the plus side, it will have the awesome Pixel camera (here are some early camera samples), a 3.5mm headphone jack and a lower price.

There"s no word on when this mid-range Pixel will be released, but there"s only a month left in 2018, so we are probably looking at a launch early next year (CES, maybe?).
