Google will officially launching the Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro, and Pixel Watch during an event scheduled for October 6, 2022. But the company already gave us our first look at the phone five months ago, and more details have been leaking ever since.
Now a spec sheet allegedly grabbed from a Taiwanese wireless carrier website is making the round, and it appear to confirm many of the previously-leaked details.
Both phones are expected to have Google Tensor G2 processors, which are expected to be a relatively modest upgrade over the company’s first-gen Tensor processor bringing around a 10% boost in CPU performance, but up to 35% better graphics.
Camera, memory, and storage features don’t seem to have changed much from Google’s Pixel 1 series. And the display sizes and features are similar as well (although the Pixel 7 screen is a tiny bit larger than the Pixel 6 display, and both phones have new front-facing cameras).
Pixel 7 Pro | Pixel 7Â | |
Display | 6.7 inches QHD+ Up to 120 Hz | 6.3 inches FHD+ Up to 90 Hz |
Processor | Google Tensor G2 | |
RAM | 12GB | 8GB |
Storage | 128GB or 256GB | |
Cameras (rear) | 48MP telephoto (5x) 50MP wide-angle 12MP ultra wide-angle (autofocus) | 50MP wide-angle 12MP ultra wide-angle |
Cameras (front) | 10.8MP w/4K video support | |
Camera features | Macro Focus High Resolution 30x Zoom Real Tone Movie Motion Bur | High resolution 8X zoom Real Tone Movie Motion Blur |
Dust/water resistance | IP68 | |
Security | Face Unlock Fingerprint unlock Titan M2 security chip | |
Battery & charging | Wired and wireless fast charging |
Rumor has is that Google’s new phones will have the same starting prices as the Pixel 6 series, which means the Pixel 7 will likely sell for $599 and up while the Pixel 7 Pro will start at $899.

that price is nuts. I just got the 6a for 250 trading my old pixel 3a.
That price you paid is extremely abnormal. That’s essentially google paying you a lot of money to take your pixel 3a out of circulation and put a 6a into circulation. I’m not sure what exactly they gain from that but given that it uses custom silicon designed by an advertising/datamining conglomerate I can’t imagine anything pleasant.
The issue with Pixels is typically pricing, they’re not aligned with other Android manufacturers, the price is off for what is proposed.
