It’s been a few months since Google launched its Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro flagship smartphones in the market, and now we are getting information about the upcoming Pixel 8 series smartphones.
Although the launch of the upcoming Pixel 8 and 8 Pro smartphones is expected to happen in late 2023, a new report from WinFuture has revealed some key details about the devices.
The report indicates that the Pixel 8 is codenamed Shiba, while the Pixel 8 Pro is codename Husky. This naming convention appears to be in line with Google’s Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, which are codenamed Panther and Cheetah, respectively.
It also comes at a time when there are reports making rounds indicating that the upcoming flagship smartphones from Google will be powered by the company’s Tensor G3 processor, which will be manufactured by Samsung using 3nm process. Further, it is also said that the chipset will be based on Samsung Exynos 2300 SoC.
The upcoming Tensor G3 chip is allegedly codenamed Zuma and will come with the Samsung G5300 modem which is found in the current-generation Tensor G2 processor of the Pixel 7 series.
Coming to the specifications, reports indicate that the Pixel 8 will feature a display with a 2268 x 1080 pixels screen resolution while the Pixel 8 Pro will offer a 2822 x 1344 pixels screen resolution. It further adds that both devices will come packed with up to 12GB of RAM. The screen resolution doesn’t line up with prior Google Pixel devices, so we would advise you to take this with a pinch of salt.
