The highly anticipated Google Pixel 8 series is expected to make its official debut in October of this year. With a few months to go until the launch, rumors surrounding the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro have been circulating for some time now. Recently, leaked information has revealed the price and specifications of the base model, the Pixel 8.
According to renowned tipster Yogesh Brar (@heyitsyogesh), the Pixel 8 is scheduled for an early October release and is expected to be priced between $649 and $699 (approximately Rs. 53,600 and Rs. 57,700). This indicates a significant price increase compared to its predecessor, the Pixel 7, which debuted at $599 (roughly Rs. 49,400) last October. In India, the Pixel 7 starts at Rs. 59,999.
As for the specifications, the Pixel 8 is rumored to run on Android 14 and feature a 6.17-inch full-HD+ OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It may be powered by the next-generation Tensor G3 SoC, which will be an upgrade from the Tensor G2 SoC found in the Pixel 7 series, as well as the new Pixel 7a and Pixel Fold. The phone is expected to come in 128GB and 256GB storage options, paired with 8GB of RAM.
In terms of camera capabilities, the Pixel 8 is likely to sport a dual rear camera setup, with a 50-megapixel primary Samsung ISOCELL GN2 sensor featuring OIS, and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera. On the front, users can expect an 11-megapixel selfie camera.
Battery life is another area of improvement for the Pixel 8, as it is said to feature a 4,485mAh battery with support for 24W wired charging and 12W wireless charging. Additionally, the phone may include an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for secure authentication.
It’s worth mentioning that the Google Pixel 7 series made its debut last October alongside the Pixel Watch at the ‘Made By Google’ event. While Google has yet to confirm the release date for the next-generation Pixel series, these leaked details should be taken with a grain of salt until official announcements are made.
In conclusion, the Google Pixel 8 series promises to deliver an enhanced user experience with its advanced specifications and features. As we eagerly await its launch, Google continues to emphasize its commitment to AI technology, as demonstrated during the Google I/O 2023 event, where the search giant unveiled its first foldable phone and Pixel-branded tablet.
