Pixel fans can expect design tweaks and performance boost at Google’s Oct. 4 event.
Google Pixel 8 leaks reveal most ahead of October 4 launch. Nevertheless, the Pixel 8 series has generated substantial excitement. Pixel 8 rumors: Display, camera, and more.
Display and Design
The forthcoming Pixel 8 appears to represent an evolutionary step rather than a revolutionary change. Pixel 8 screen smaller than Pixel 7. However, the Pro model is expected to maintain the same size as the 7 Pro at 6.7 inches.
Google Pixel 8 Pro design confirmed with new colors and sensor, thanks to leaks and official teasers.
Performance and Camera
Pixel 8 to get next-gen Tensor G3 chip. Android Authority previously described the Tensor G2 as “somewhat uninspiring” in terms of CPU performance. Tensor G3 to feature more modern CPUs, including Cortex-X3.” Additional leaked specifications suggest that the Pixel 8’s GPU will support ray tracing and potentially offer 8K video capabilities.
Pixel 8 Pro to get upgraded ultrawide camera with new sensor and ToF sensor for better autofocus. However, the standard Pixel 8 model may only see an upgrade to its primary camera.
Intriguingly, reports suggest that the Pixel 8 Pro will feature an IR thermometer (the sensor mentioned earlier). This leak, originating from 91mobiles and tipster Kuba Wojciechowski, if true, introduces an exceedingly niche feature for a smartphone. The Pro may get body temperature app and object temperature sensor.
