Google has its annual fall hardware event planned for October 9th, which is when well see the official announcement of the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL on top of the usual slate of Google-made hardware upgrades. One of those upgrades, to the companys Chromecast line, appears to have been leaked in rather embarrassing fashion by Best Buy, which sold the unannounced product to a customer who picked it up off the shelf, via AndroidPolice.
The customer, who posted a photo of the product an account of the story on Reddit under the name GroveStreetHomie, says it didnt even show up in Best Buys system, but that the cashier rang up the product under a listing for an older Chromecast.
