The Pixel 7 bid is expected to spot a reasonably airy update implicit the anterior generation, but a caller spec expanse hints that the camera could bring a spot much of an update than antecedently expected.

This latest Pixel 7 leak claims to amusement disconnected a spec expanse and examination leafage for the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, courtesy of a mobile bearer successful Taiwan. The images were archetypal shared successful the Google News Telegram channel, and are claimed to person since been taken down (the bearer successful question was not mentioned by name).

We’d urge taking this with a flimsy atom of brackish fixed the quality of the leak, but determination are nary evident reddish flags present that we tin see.

That said, what bash we perchance larn from this caller Pixel 7 bid spec sheet?

As we’ve known for months now, this spec expanse reiterates the 6.7-inch and 6.3-inch displays of the PIxel 7 Pro and Pixel 7, respectively, with their QHD 120Hz and FHD 90Hz panels. The phones are further mentioned to person 12GB of RAM and 8GB of RAM respectively, with some offering 128GB and 256GB models with Tensor G2 nether the hood, IP68 h2o resistance, and some wired and wireless charging.

But this spec expanse seems to corroborate a fewer different details that were antecedently rumored. Firstly, look unlock enactment is explicitly mentioned alongside fingerprint unlock. This would corroborate what we’ve been reporting for respective months, arsenic good arsenic some different caller leaks. Apparently, the usage of a 10.8MP camera utilized for the front-facing sensor connected some phones volition beryllium what helps this diagnostic yet go a reality.

It’s possibly the camera conception that’s astir intriguing here.

According to this Pixel 7 spec sheet, the smaller Pixel 7 volition person mostly the aforesaid camera specs arsenic the anterior model, with a 50MP superior sensor, 12MP ultrawide, and nary telephoto lens connected the back. There would past beryllium the antecedently mentioned 10.8MP camera connected the beforehand for selfies and look unlock.

Meanwhile, the Pixel 7 Pro would enactment the aforesaid 50MP primary, aforesaid 12MP ultrawide, and aforesaid 10.8MP front-facing cameras, portion adding a 48MP telephoto to the mix. This is the aforesaid solution arsenic the Pixel 6 Pro, but this spec expanse claims that the Pixel 7 Pro volition upgrade from a 4x telephoto lens to 5x. This would boost the show of optical zoom astatine a distance, arsenic good arsenic boosting hybrid zoom (digital + optical) to a maximum of 30x, up from 20x connected the Pixel 6 Pro.

Finally, the different camera specs we larn astir present see “Movie Motion Blur” and “Macro Focus,” the second being exclusive to the Pixel 7 Pro. There’s not overmuch to spell connected arsenic to what these features mightiness be, but if we had to guess, “Movie Motion Blur” sounds a batch similar it would replicate Apple’s “Cinematic Mode” connected iPhones, portion “Macro Focus” could possibly usage the telephoto lens arsenic a macro lens, somehow, fixed the diagnostic is lone disposable connected Google’s Pro-tier device.

In immoderate case, we should larn much astir these caller modes, and spot the finalized spec expanse for the Pixel 7 bid successful a substance of days. Google is acceptable to officially unveil the Pixel 7 bid and the Pixel Watch on October 6.
