Google has already unveiled its next-generation Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro flagship smartphones and has confirmed that the devices will get launched in the fall this year, without revealing the exact timeframe.
Recently, it was reported that the devices will get launched on 13th September, just a day before the Apple iPhone 13 series launch. Now, Jon Prosser refutes that and claims that the Google Pixel 6 lineup will launch on 28th October.
He also adds that both the upcoming smartphones — Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will be available for pre-orders from 19th October and will start shipping on the day of its launch, which is set on 28th October.
It’s important to note that the launch date here refers to the date when the devices will start shipping and be available for purchase. It is not yet known when Google will host its event revealing more details about the Pixel 6 series, including pricing and availability.
Although the date for the Pixel 6 series launch event is not yet known, it’s likely that the device could be officially announced on the day company begins taking pre-orders. So, the date may be 19th October or somewhere around it. We will get to know more details pretty soon as the launch date nears.
So far, Google has revealed some key details about the smartphones even though the full specifications sheet hasn’t been shared. The Pixel 6 comes with a 6.4-inch Full HD+ display offering a 90Hz refresh rate while the Pro model has a 6.7-inch QHD+ display offering a 120Hz refresh rate.
The standard model features a dual-camera setup on the back while the Pixel 6 Pro has a triple-camera setup — a wide-angle lens, an ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 4x telephoto lens. The photography performance is expected to top the charts as the chipset is said to be focused on photo output and uses artificial intelligence along with machine learning.
The highlight of the Pixel 6 series remains its processor as the phones will come powered by Google’s own chipset — Tensor, which the company says is made especially for Pixel devices. Apart from on-device AI and ML capability, the chip is also claimed to have significant improvement in translation, captioning, and dictation. The chipset is likely to be an unreleased Samsung Exynos 9855 SoC.
