Google Pixel 7 leaks: Release date, pricing, and more

The Google Pixel 7 won’t be available for at least a year, but it’s certainly piqued our interest in the company’s 2022 flagship. We’re excited to see how Google can improve on its new Tensor chipset and better camera systems with the Google Pixel 6 and Google Pixel 6 Pro, which appear to be the company’s most essential phones yet by a considerable margin.

Similarly, we’d like to know what Google plans to do about the Pixel 6 series’ problems, like the entry-level device’s low battery life and limited features. There aren’t many rumors to go on right now because the Pixel 6 was only released a few months ago. However, we’re starting to get some early hints, and we already know what we’d like to see on the Pixel 7.

Read on for the most recent Google Pixel 7 rumors, as well as a list of what we’d want to see Google accomplish with its next flagship phone. If you’re curious about additional potential Google gadgets, check out our Google in 2022 piece for some predictions.

Leaked release date and pricing for Google Pixel 7

Google’s phone release schedule has remained quite steady over the last few years. As a result, in the lack of new information, we’re betting on Google announcing the Pixel 7 in October 2022. In terms of pricing, we’re hoping Google keeps it as affordable as the Pixel 6 series. These two phones are hundreds of dollars or pounds less than their flagship rivals, with the Pixel 6 starting at $ 699 / £ 599 and the Pixel 6 Pro starting at $ 899 / £ 849, respectively. If Google can match the quality of the next generation of Pixels, it will tempt many customers away from other Android manufacturers.

New Google Pixel 7 rumors have surfaced.

First and foremost, it’s one that you might have guessed. According to reports, Google is working on a second-generation Tensor processor to replace the first-generation Tensor found in the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro.

Beyond the typical advances in processing power and energy efficiency that chipsets strive for every year, updating the CPU in the Pixel 7 is an obvious step forward from the Pixel 6, and there is no hint of what Google would do. Furthermore, 9to5 Google claims to have unearthed evidence linking the new second-generation Tensor processor to two future Pixel smartphones, the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro.

The chipset is known as the ‘GS201,’ and it is linked to an unreleased Samsung modem known as the ‘g5300b,’ according to the site’s source. The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, according to 9to5Google, are connected to this new modem via two smartphones nicknamed Cheetah and Panther.

It’s the closest we’ve gotten to confirming that the gadgets are in the works, so stay tuned for additional details. Another speculation is that Google’s next-generation Pixel will incorporate an under-display selfie camera.

This is based on a patent filed by Google, which uses a mirror mechanism to disclose either the camera or a piece of the display as needed, building on the fundamental under-display selfie camera technology found on phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the ZTE Axon 30. Because this is just a patent, it could take years for it to be ready for usage, if it ever does. However, it would make a fantastic headline feature for a future Pixel.

Another camera on the Pixel 6’s basic model

The Pixel 6 may have been underserved by Google’s decision to equip it with only two back cameras. It’s the same as the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4, as well as the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini’s base models, but it’s still disappointing given that some luxury phones now have up to four cameras and a depth sensor (such as the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra). Even if its magnification wouldn’t match the Pro model’s 4x optical zoom, a telephoto lens would be an obvious choice for a third camera on the basic Pixel 7.

A depth camera for more accurate portrait photographs and improved AR capability, as well as a dedicated macro camera for ultra-close-up shots, could be beneficial additions.

Longer battery life

It doesn’t appear that the batteries in the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are overly little, given their sizes (4,614 mAh and 5,000 mAh, respectively). Instead, Google should most likely focus on maximizing the power available within the cells.
