About a month before the market launch of the Pixel 7 series, we want to bring you up to date again. Google had already shown the new Android phones in the spring, but was very reticent about the technical details. Of course, you don’t want to give too much away. However, a lot is already known.
Various key data have long been known through insiders, publicly accessible source codes and some other sources. And because prototypes and finished devices got into the wrong hands again, secrecy could hardly be maintained. Stupid for those who don’t feel like leaks.
In the last two months, for example, various photos of prototypes that could no longer be used have appeared. That was the first impression of the new devices on photos, which show more details than the manufacturer’s soft renderings.
You can also see the significantly revised design of the camera bar very well in comparison.
This also made it visually clear for the first time that the regular Pixel 7 is smaller and more compact than the rather bulky Pixel 6. The screen diagonal is probably 0.2″ less. That was really good news that Unbox Therapy had for us in August.
Here the prototypes were still in the picture, without the Google logo and not usable. A short time later there was the first unboxing video of the Pixel 7 Pro with the finished RRP and Google logo on the back. Google just doesn’t have a handle on its supply chains. However, it is confirmation that the release is imminent.
When will the new Google Pixel 7 phones launch? If we believe the insider circles, Google is said to have committed to October 6th. This has now been officially confirmed. From today’s perspective, that is exactly one month and therefore also one month after Apple (September 7th). Listed below are the specs we know today.
