Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro: updated design and own processor
Google has shared some information about its upcoming additions - the sixth generation Pixel smartphones. The full announcement of the devices will take place sometime in October, so there are no details about them at the moment. The company focused on the presentation of the updated design of the gadgets and their own chip, on which they will work.

Both versions of the Pixel will have metal bodies as well as a glass coating on both sides. Thus, Google is trying to achieve the level of materials and workmanship inherent in flagships from Samsung and Apple. Also, according to the boss of the company's hardware business, Rick Osterloch, the price tag for the devices will be at least $ 1000, since the gadgets will be positioned as premium devices.

In terms of technical specifications and design, according to past leaks, the new models will receive a fundamentally new look. So, the rear part will have a combined combination of colors and an extended camera unit along the entire horizontal length. This configuration allows you to easily accommodate upgraded sensors and lenses, which have become much larger in comparison with previous generations of "Pixels".

Information about the "stuffing" of the devices is very scarce, probably Google will fully announce all the hardware features at the annual October event. For example, the Pro model will have a 6.7 "curved display with a 120 Hz refresh rate. The screen will also have an additional camera with 4x zoom.

The younger version will receive a flat widescreen display with 1920 x 1080 pixels, 6.4 "diagonal and 90 Hz. The main camera will be dual, the second module will be an ultra-wide-angle one with an upgraded diaphragm capable of capturing 150% more light rays than the previous device.

In both devices, the fingerprint scanner will be located under the display. Of the differences, it is worth noting different configurations of RAM and built-in memory, as well as different color variations.

The main feature of the devices will be Google's own SoC Tensor processors. The main feature of the chips is the presence of TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) devices. They will be responsible for the speed of execution of AI tasks and machine learning, as well as a new generation of Titan M2 security processor on board. The closed presentation showcased TPU's ability to enhance photos and videos.

In addition, SoC Tensor contains standard CPU cores, GPU graphics unit, 5G support. Full information on the technical characteristics has not yet been provided, as well as data on performance testing. However, Rick Osterloch ensures that this solution will be one of the most advanced on the market.

Earlier in the leaked SoC, Tensor was referred to as Whitechapel (GS101), and it was assumed that the chip has a 3-cluster CPU configuration, like the Snapdragon 888+. And even last year, information surfaced that the American company turned to Samsung to create a productive SoC Exynos chipset with a technical process of 5 nanometers. It seems that all the data converges, and it was these chips that became the basis for the processors of the new Pixel models.

New products of the sixth generation will be fully announced in October, then specific information on technical characteristics will appear.
