To back up these claims, Prosser showcased previous reports about Google’s previous Pixel launch dates — hitting the nail on the head by reporting the Pixel 6 lineup would launch on October 28 back in August last year. With this in mind, there’s reason to believe the Pixel 7 will be available on October 13.
Google Pixel 7 hype
There’s a lot to look forward to about Google’s next flagship Pixels. Not only do we expect the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro to have similar prices to the Pixel 6 lineup, starting at $599 and $899, respectively, but Google also confirmed that it will feature a second-generation Tensor chip. Another leak exposed the Pixel 7’s camera specs to expect, too. Both the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro will use the same 50MP GN1 main sensor and 12MP IMX381 ultrawide sensor as the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro. We’re big fans of the sensors, but the real change is likely to come in the software the next-gen Pixel phone will boast. However, the Pixel 7 will apparently be getting one upgrade: an 11MP selfie camera. This is similar to the one found on the Pixel 6 Pro, and will also be used on the 7 Pro. What’s more, the 7 Pro is also expected to use Samsung’s 48MP GM1 telephoto lens instead of Sony’s 48MP IMX586 sensor. There’s also a third, higher-end Pixel phone rumored to arrive, which is expected to have a completely different display to the 7 and 7 Pro. However, there aren’t as many details about this mystery model compared to the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, which Google already announced during Google I/O 2022. Only time will tell if Google’s Pixel 7 lineup arrives on October 13. In the meantime, check out our Pixel 6a review.
