Google Pixel 8 pro set to debut on October 4: Here's what we know
Delhi : Google's newest Pixel 8 Pro will be on sale on October 4. The newest iPhone 15 and 15 Pro models were released about a month before to the arrival of the new Google smartphone. Google has already hinted at the appearance of the Pixel 8 Pro model, which bears some resemblance to the older Pixel 7 Pro model with a few minor changes. That is probably so that Google won't draw attention away from the first Pixel Fold, which debuted earlier this year. However, with a new chipset, Tensor G3, inside, we might anticipate a minor performance increase. Although Google has hinted at a Porcelain White color choice, the Pixel 8 Pro might possibly come in a black color.
Additionally, there have been rumors about the Pixel 8 Pro for a time. The next Pixel phone has a 6.7-inch QHD+ 120Hz LTPO OLED display with a tiny hole-punch cutout for the 11-megapixel selfie camera, according to tipster Yogesh Brar. A 50-megapixel primary camera with OIS, a 64-megapixel ultra-wide, and a 49-megapixel telephoto lens could all be present on the back as three sensors. A new time of flight (ToF) sensor could aid in sharpening focus as well. The rear camera bar will still be present, but the rear cameras will be contained in a lengthy pill-shaped cutout. Similar to the Pixel 7 Pro from the previous year, the phone will probably be made of a combination of glass and metal.
As previously announced, the Google Tensor G3 SoC may provide power for the Pixel 8 Pro. Additionally, the phone might include a 4,950mAh battery with wired 27W charging. Google will keep doing away with the boxed charger. Users may be able to check their body temperature using a new infrared temperature sensor.
The informant also claims that the device will have an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, 12GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, and a Titan security chip. Even if the phone might have the same modem, the Pixel 8 Pro will still support 5G. Although the Pixel 8 Pro's look and specifications are comparable, Google will probably highlight the software experience. First, the camera app might receive new AI improvements.
Google is also developing a function called Audio Magic Eraser to take out background noise from videos. A specific app will be required to access the feature. Some pre-installed Bard features from Google might also be displayed. Android 14 will come preinstalled on the Pixel 8 Pro.
Additionally, there may be a slight increase in phone prices. The Pixel 8 Pro is anticipated to go on sale for EUR 1,235 (about Rs. 1.10 lakh) for the base 128GB storage and EUR 1,309 (approximately Rs. The pricing for India will be somewhat more reasonable. Priced at Rs 84,999 at launch, the Pixel 7 Pro.
