Despite claims that Google has been trolling everyone, it has turned out that the leaks really did showcase their phones, a special charging stand, a tablet called the Pixel Slate, and the Google Home Hub.

Aside from the phones and the charging stand, Google's launch event in Singapore earlier this morning did not even acknowledge the existence of the Pixel Slate and Google Home Hub. Sad news for smart home fans and seekers of alternatives Apple's own iPad Pro, but eh, we'll live.

Of course, you're here for the Pixel 3. Let's get this one out of the way – it's a helluva lot cheaper than Apple's ridiculous price points for their iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max. The Pixel 3 starts at S $ 1,249 and the Pixel 3 XL starts at S $ 1,399, which is hundreds of dollars cheaper than the entry-level 64GB iPhone Xs. Google's flagship is no longer exclusive to just one telco; Both Singtel and StarHub will be available as of November 1. Only Singtel, however, will offer the 'Not Pink' shade of phones.

Pre-orders have gone live today on Google Store and the websites of both telcos.

That hideous notch though.

Google also plays a role in their security, which is built into their new devices, which is required to provide a more secure experience for users. It is supposed to help protect credentials and sensitive on-device data, and strengthen the encryption and the like. Maybe it will help google from leaking out information about the Pixel 4 next year (badum-tish!).

Then there's the Pixel Stand, the company's wireless charging specially built for the Pixel 3 with uber-fast wireless charging. When docked with a cell phone, it will turn into a smart display of alarms as it automatically adjusts the phone to provide information, weather, traffic, reminders and calendar events. It could even turn into a live photo frame, displaying favorites from Google Photos. The Pixel Stand will retail for S $ 119, and it'll be free for Singel customers who sign up for data add-on bundles when pre-ordering the Pixel 3.
