Google’s Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro smartphones are scheduled to be unveiled on October 4 at the “Made by Google” event. As we count down the days to the launch of new Pixel phones, alleged hands-on images of the Pixel 8 Pro have surfaced online. The latest leak appears to show a black version of the Pixel 8 Pro. There are small bezels around the display and a punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera in the center of the screen. They suggest that the phone will come with a matte glass finish and a triple rear camera unit at the back.
Vietnamese users (LEAKs Viet Nam) shared Hands-on pictures of the Pixel 8 Pro virtual machine on Facebook. The images show the front and back of the phone, hinting at a similar design language to last year’s Pixel 7 Pro. However, it comes in black and has thin bezels around the display. There appears to be a punch-hole cutout in the center of the display for the selfie camera.
Judging from the renderings, the back of the Pixel 8 Pro has a matte finish. This will be a shift in the design of the Pixel 7 Pro. Google used a glossy glass finish on the Pixel 6 series and Pixel 7 series in previous years. Additionally, the renders reveal three camera units on the back, arranged in a pill-shared cutout for the camera bar. The horizontally shaped camera island also houses the flash and thermometer sensors.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen the Pixel 8 Pro in live images. The phone was leaked during live shots in July, which hinted at design details and the codename “Husky.” Google also officially announced the design of Pixel 8 Pro.
The Pixel 8 series will be launched in New York on October 4 at 10:00 am local time (7:30 pm IST). New colors for Pixel Watch 2 and Pixel Buds Pro are also planned to be officially released during the “Made by Google” event. The upcoming phone will be available for pre-order via Flipkart in India from October 5.
The new generation of Pixel smartphones is expected to run on Android 14. The regular Pixel 8 is expected to feature a 6.17-inch Full HD+ OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, while the Pro model is said to feature a 6.71-inch LTPO OLED screen with a QHD refresh rate and a 120Hz refresh rate. They are expected to run on the new Tensor G3 SoC. They are expected to be available in two RAM (8GB, 12GB) and two storage options (128GB, 256GB RAM). The Pixel 8 Pro is expected to be equipped with a 4,950mAh battery and support 27W wired fast charging. At the same time, Pixel 8 is equipped with a 4,485mAh battery and supports 24W wired charging and 12W wireless charging.
