A little over a week before the official unveiling of the Pixel 7 series on October 6th, leaks have shed further light on the device and help to confirm a previous rumor about its pricing in the US. The first leak comes via a premature Amazon listing which appears to confirm the $599 pricing of the Pixel 7 in the US and that it will go on general sale on October 13, much like last weeks leak suggested.
The rest of the leaked info comes from Yogesh Brar (Twitter) and reveals further details on what the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro has under their hoods. Slightly smaller than the vanilla Pixel 6, the Pixel 7 has a 6.3-inch OLED panel with FHD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. As expected, providing the power for the Pixel 7 is Google's Tensor G2 SoC which is accompanied by 8GB of RAM and a choice of 128/256GB of non-expandable storage.
There's a Titan security chip, a decent sized 4,700mAh battery with wireless charging and also 30W comparitively fast charging. A 50MP main camera and a 12MP ultra-wide camera are housed on the rear panel while the front-facing camera has an 11MP sensor. Stereo speakers and Bluetooth LE connectivity are also present.
Like its larger sibling, the Pixel 7 will sport the same refreshed back panel and camera bar which Google revealed during I/O 2022. Possibly the best thing about today's leaked info is that the $599 price tag would appear to be the real deal.
As for the Pixel 7 Pro, Yogesh Brar says that it will pack in a 6.7-inch OLED LTPO panel with QHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Powered by the Tensor G2 SoC, the Pixel 7 Pro will also feature 12GB of RAM along with a choise of 128/256GB of storage. There's a 5,000 battery with wireless charging and 30W fast-charing.
Besides having the same 50MP and 12MP rear cameras that are on duty with the Pixel 7, the Pixel 7 Pro also has a 48MP telephoto lens. The same 11MP selfie camera is included on the 7 Pro as well. As it should for a Pixel device launching in October 2022, the Pixel 7 Pro (and Pixel 7) will run Android 13 out of the box.
