Related news claimsGoogle expects that the Pixel 8 series, which will be updated this fall, may adopt a full-flat screen design, and the size may even be slightly reduced.
Kamila Wojciechowska, a writer for the Android Authority website, pointed out that the Pixel 8 Pro will have a 7-inch screen that is slightly smaller than the Pixel 6.7 Pro (Note:The Pixel 7 Pro has a 6.71-inch screen and is made of a flat OLED display panel, also provided by Samsung. The resolution is 2992 x 1344, and the display density is reduced from 512 ppi to 490 ppi.
The Pixel 8 features a 6.17-inch screen, slightly smaller than the Pixel 7's 6.31-inch display. While maintaining a 2400 x 1080 resolution, the display density is increased to 427 ppi. Both screens boast peak brightness of 1600 nits and 1400 nits, respectively, and both support HDR.
而兩款手機的顯示更新率則均支援至120Hz，預期與Pixel 7a對應的90Hz作更明顯區隔。不過，在實際對應規格仍有些差異，Pixel 8僅對應10Hz、30Hz、60Hz與120Hz更新率切換，Pixel 8 Pro則支援5Hz、10Hz與30Hz更新率切換，以及60Hz-120Hz之間更新率細微調整，藉此對應更細膩畫面顯示效果。
Prior to this, Kamila Wojciechowska also revealed that the Pixel 8 series will be equipped with the same Samsung ISOCELL GN22 photosensitive element as the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S2, which will increase the amount of light entering by 35%, support 8K 30fps recording and Staggered HDR shooting effects, and the Pixel 8 Pro will additionally use the ToF lens to enhance the autofocus performance.
As for the wide-angle lens, the Sony IMX7 sensor used in the Pixel 787a will be used as an ultra-wide-angle lens design to increase the amount of light entering and the resolution performance. The Pixel 8's ultra-wide-angle lens will continue to use the Sony IMX386, corresponding to a 1200-megapixel resolution.
In addition, it was previously reported that the Pixel 8 Pro will be equipped with a temperature sensing element, which will obviously not be used for camera shooting functions, but may be used for other application services.
Google is more likely to add a "Cinematic" shooting mode to the new version of the camera app to increase the depth of field shooting effect, and it can be combined with the "Adaptive torch" function to adjust the fill light brightness for different shooting scenes to avoid overexposure of the shooting picture.
