Pixel leaks season is upon us.
Following a current hands-on with a prototype Pixel 7a, OnLeaks and SmartPrix partnered to disclose unofficial renders of Google’s upcoming Pixel flagship primarily based on “unique data on the design of the Pixel 8 Professional.”
Typically, it appears just like the Pixel 8 Professional will preserve an identical type to the 7 Pro and 6 Pro that got here earlier than — assuming the renders are correct. Meaning the digicam visor will return (adore it or hate it), although this time the renders present all three rear cameras housed in a single glass oval, moderately than the ‘i’ formed cutouts on the 7 Professional.
Subsequent to the cutouts for the digicam are two small cutouts, one for a flash and one other for an unknown sensor. SmartPrix suspects it might be a depth or macro sensor, however we doubtless gained’t know for certain with out extra leaked data, or till the cellphone launches.
Past that, it seems the Pixel 8 Professional will provide a flat show as a substitute of a curved show like what was on the predecessors. Followers of curved shows might lament the change, however I feel that is the fitting transfer.
The show bezels additionally look fairly small, save for a slight chin on the backside. The display will reportedly measure in at 6.52-inches, barely smaller than the 6.7-inch panel on the 7 Professional. The cellphone’s general dimensions will allegedly be 162.6×76.5×8.7mm, and the digicam bar will carry the thickness as much as 12mm.
That’s about it for what the renders reveal. Thus far, we don’t know rather a lot in regards to the Pixel 8 sequence, though it’s anticipated the telephones will run on a Tensor G3 chip, doubtless primarily based on a Samsung Exynos chip once more. There’s additionally a hearsay the Pixel 8 line will use an updated camera sensor, the Samsung ISOCELL GN2 with assist for staggered HDR.
As soon as once more, the Pixel sequence is predicted to launch later within the yr, doubtless in October or November. Nevertheless, the telephones might be teased at Google’s upcoming I/O developer convention, which kicks off Could tenth. We would additionally see the launch of one other Google cellphone — the Pixel 7a — in addition to reveal new particulars about Android 14, which is able to doubtless run on the Pixel 8 sequence.
