We saw numerous Pixel 3 leaks before the handset was officially unveiled and so far it's been the same story with the Pixel 4: another unauthorized image has hit the web, this one showing off a rather eye-catching orange color.

As spotted by tipster Ben Geskin, the image appeared on Chinese social network Weibo, and based on the text accompanying the picture, this color could be named coral.

Alongside the coral handset we've got the more conventional black and white, so it looks like you've got a choice of three colors to pick from if you're buying a PIxel 4 this year – though of course nothing is certain until Google makes its announcements.

• Say hello to the Moto E6 Plus
• The Pixel 4 might have a 90Hz screen
• We're also waiting for new iPhones

The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are currently available in black, white, and "not pink" direct from Google, while the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL come in black, white, and "purple-ish". It would seem that three color approach will be continued here.

Even just in the last few days we've heard plenty of details about what's coming with the Pixel 4 and the Pixel 4 XL – it's likely to come with 6GB of RAM and a Snapdragon 855 processor on the inside.

One of the biggest upgrades from last year is going to be with the rear-facing camera. A dual-lens snapper is rumored, complete with as much as 8x zoom, improved night photography, and some special action shooting modes.

Numerous photos and videos of the handsets have leaked out as well, showing off a rather hefty top bezel and a smaller chin, as well as the square rear camera housing (a feature Google confirmed with its own sneak preview).

We're also going to see a feature called Motion Sense, made possible by the Soli motion-sensing radar Google has been working on: it'll enable you to control your phone without actually touching it.

Latest Tech News

World of Warcraft Classic has been hit by DDoS attacks this weekend, which started on Saturday, and although Blizzard says the issues are now resolved, some players are still reporting that they are unable to log in on certain servers.

As Kotaku reports, these DDoS attacks began at around 11 AM ET (3pm UK time) yesterday, with a group going by the name of UKDrillas claiming responsibility, stating on Twitter that they would cycle through WoW Classic servers with their DDoS fire (the group’s Twitter account has since been suspended).

• World of Warcraft Classic: is it worth revisiting Azeroth?
• WoW Classic will make things much more difficult for players
• These are the best MMO games of 2019

Blizzard didn’t confirm that this organization was responsible, but did announce that there were DDoS disruptions affecting some of its player base on Twitter.

According to the chatter that followed from players on Twitter, the effects were widespread, and the group targeted more than just Classic servers eventually, hitting normal WoW servers too.

Blizzard customer service tweeted seven hours ago (from the time of writing) to say: “All WoW Realms except Rattlegore are back online and stable. The investigation continues for that realm. Some players may experience persistent login issues until realm maintenance tomorrow morning.”

And the company followed that tweet an hour later with a statement claiming that everything had been resolved: “Rattlegore is now stabilized as well.  Thank you everyone for your patience.”

All is not well?

While some gamers are indeed finding that everything is fine now, a number of players commenting on that latest Twitter post are reporting that they are still having issues logging in, or that they might be able to login, but still can’t get into the actual game.

Other reports indicate issues still persisting in the US, the Oceanic region, and Malaysia, with some gamers also complaining that they can’t log in to Battle.net at all.

Hopefully any remaining problems will be resolved in short order – there is a scheduled realm maintenance happening at 7am PT (2pm UK time) for an hour, so with any luck, any gremlins that may still be in the works will be stamped out by the time servers come back up.

Other chatter online has linked UKDrillas to DDoS attacks on Twitch servers earlier this weekend, and even this weekend’s Wikipedia outage, but no official confirmation has been given as to whether or not that’s true on any count (including by Blizzard).
