Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro
At the risk of drowning out the Pixel 6a, Google also teased the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, successors to the company’s latest flagship devices. These upcoming models won’t arrive until this fall, but Google isn’t waiting to drum up excitement in the meantime. So far, we know only a few key details.
For one, Google is iterating on the current design language with a tweak to the camera module. Instead of a black shade spanning the entire length, the camera bar matches the trim of the phone while the lenses—dual on the Pixel 7 and trio on the Pixel 7 Pro—are discreet outlines. This gives a more luxurious appearance to this recycled polished aluminum and glass device, or at least that seems to be the intention. Based on the provided images, the Pixel 7 family will come in various colors; my unofficial descriptions are white/silver, black/charcoal, sage/gold, and lemongrass/gold.
Google tells us the Pixel 7 will run on a second-generation Tensor chip and promises improvements to the camera, performance, and speech. We’ll learn more about the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro in the coming months.
