Only a few days are left for the official launch of the Pixel 8 Series on October 4. Along with the Pixel 8 launch, we expect a new Pixel Watch 2, New Nest Devices, Android 14 stable build, and a few other announcements. A few days before the official launch, a massive leak detailing all the specifications surfaced via 91mobiles. It also revealed Google’s plan to offer up to 7 Years of OS upgrades and Security Patches starting with the Pixel 8 series.

Quashing the previous leaks about the updated policy, the users would expect the Pixel 8 series to get updates up to Android 21. It looks exciting as a few years ago, the Android update cycle for a device was limited to a maximum of 2-3 years. The latest chipset advancements and Android’s OS-level improvements have enabled manufacturers to offer up to 7 years of updates.
Pixel 8 and 8 Pro Specs as per leak
As per the new leak, the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro will come with Google Tensor G3 coupled with Titan M2 security chip. The Pixel 8 will feature a 6.2-inch Full HD+ OLED, offering 60-120Hz refresh rate and 2000 nits of maximum brightness. It will be protected with the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus.

It will bundle a 4,575 mAh battery with support for up to 27W fast charging and Qi-certified wireless charging up to 18W.
