- Google just revealed a lot of early information about Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro.
- The announcement contains an image of the device, which is very consistent with previous leaks.
- The company also revealed some other details about the new flagship phone.
The series will include Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro. This is the first time that “Pro” Pixel has appeared, and Google usually chooses the nickname “XL”.
Check out the pictures of Pro models in multiple colors below.
This is another photo showing the Pixel 6 Pro camera:
As you can see, the previously leaked rendering of Steve Hemmerstoffer (and others) seems to be mostly correct. However, the large number of color options is very surprising (this is a welcome surprise).
Google confirmed that the Pixel 6 will use a matte aluminum finish, which may be similar to what we saw on the Pixel 5. It also confirmed that the Pixel 6 Pro will use a polished aluminum frame, which largely indicates that the back of the phone will be made of glass.
However, the name and design of the phone is not the only content Google shows.
The Google Pixel 6 processor is called “Google Tensor”
Google emphasized that Tensor was developed at the forefront of machine learning and artificial intelligence capabilities. It also emphasized that Tensor will have “the most hardware security layer of all phones.” This is a bold statement, but Google has not provided much information to support it, at least not yet.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai mentioned that the Tensor system has been brewing for four years.
Additional details from other sources
Ends with edge, Dieter Bohn got some hands-on time for a new phone. Although he could not take any photos or videos, he did add some information that Google did not officially announce.
According to Bohn, Google Pixel 6 Pro will be equipped with a 6.7-inch QHD+ display with a refresh rate of 120Hz. The display will have “slightly” curved edges, which means it won’t have too many phantom touch issues. On the back, there will be three lenses: a new wide-angle lens, an ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 4x optical zoom telephoto lens.

at the same time, edge It is claimed that the vanilla Pixel 6 has a 6.4-inch FHD+ screen with a refresh rate of 90Hz. Unlike the Pro model, its display is flat. It also does not have a telephoto camera on the rear.
Both phones will be equipped with an in-display fingerprint sensor and Tensor SoC. They will also have a built-in Titan M2 security chip.
Sundar Pichai said that Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will be launched this fall. This may mean the end of September or the beginning of October.
