A lot of rumors and leaks are coming out about Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro one after the other, today we will tell through these leaks only what new features and changes are going to happen in this upcoming phone of Google.

Google is already working on the pixel 7 code names "Cheetah" and "Panther" so let's go over the 9 main changes to expect.
9 main changes to expect
9. The new design back in February CAD models of both the Pixel 7 and the Pixel 7 Pro had leaks. The pixel 7 got leaked by X leaks 7 while the 7 pro got leaked by onleaks.
OnLeaks especially has a remarkable track record when it comes to his CAD models but X leaks was also the person who accurately makes the design and the S22 and the Pixel 5.

So, he has proven to be quite accurate, meaning that these 2 models right here are likely the actual designs of the pixel 7 and the pixel 7 pro. You think that these designs look basically identical to Pixel 6S but that's not necessarily the case.
8. We have a new color scheme. Every single year when Google releases new Pixel phones they give them a fresh coat of paint. Some color options have had really fun names in the past like really blue on the first pixel not to paint on the pixel 3 and oh so orange on the pixel 4 and what I really loved about google past color options was that it also had some accent colors, some of the power buttons while some more recent pixels like the pixel 6 had a lighter colored piece of glass right above the camera strip. So, It's pretty much a no-brainer with the Pixel 7.

Google will be introducing some new colors and since the pixel 7 would be Google's first pixel that does not massively change the design over the previous model. I do believe that Google will be introducing the most unique color options yet. We actually rendered our version as to what color scheme we think would look awesome and shout out to Jermaine concentrator for providing us with its pixel 7 model that he made based on those leaks.
Now the camera strips over to give it a more distinct look from the current black and we give the phone this dual tone blue and dark blue look. Which from certain angles also looks a bit like purple. We think that this looks so nice and even though it may not be the most premium look. It definitely screams that fun Google look all around and of course that we have to bring back the colored power button which Google actually killed with the Pixel 6

7. Only Pixel 7 Pro leaks we can also see it having a frosted glass on the back. Google was one of the first if not the first manufacturer to introduce a frosted glass back on the phones with the Pixel 3 back in 2018. But sadly they got rid of it with the Pixel 6 and I really don't know why they did this. Maybe to make their phones look more premium which was understandable given that they're also charging quite a bit more for them.
But personally I just think it made it look much worse as the back was just a fingerprint magnet down but luckily this is now apparently coming back with the Pixel 7 and I think it looks great you can see that based on how the light reflected pretty excited to see this in person once it's released but okay aside from just these design changes are we getting anything actually ends.

6. The pixel 7 is actually getting some pretty major dimension changes. So, the display is getting smaller from 6.4 to 6.3 inches according to Ross Young and based on the CAD model. We know that it is also getting shorter by 3mm narrower by 1.7 and also thinner by 0.2 and I think that's great as it makes the regular pixel 7 more portable and easier to use with one hand.
Potentially opening it to a new market of users and this might also make it cheaper at the same time even after those dimension changes the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro are still smaller and same goes for the S22. So it's not like the Pixel 7 would be a small phone by any means just smaller than what the Pixel 6 was.

5. We have updated cameras so, one of the updates that is already visible on the CAD model and on our render is how the camera strip is now a single piece as opposed to how it used to be on the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro. Where we had these two curved pieces of plastic and then the flat piece of glass that would sit on top that didn't look good at all and you could also easily feel the transition between the plastic and the glass pieces.
However if Google does switch to a full metal camera strip then this would be much easier and also cheaper to manufacture than a full curved glass strip. So, it might just be that rendering with the metal strip is actually what Google will end up doing in the final version as opposed to the Nexus render that does feature glass.
4. Now what about the actual cameras well from the looks of it their remaining mostly the same if we take a look at a CAD models the Pixel 7 comes with two modules a regular and ultrawide while the Pixel 7 Pro comes with 3 regular, ultrawide and a periscope model and just by looking at these modules they look to be very similar in size to the Pixel 6 and the Pixel 6 Pro.
The main difference being the ultrawide and the main module switching their positions. You might notice that some of the lines is like the main appears to be smaller on the Pixel 7 Pro than on the 6 Pro that's because the lens size would not be visible on the CAD models anyway but rather only the amount of space than the entire module takes and when it comes to the amount of space that they all take this looks to be about the same as on the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro.
Indicating to me that any camera changes if anything that would be very small does this make sense though as Google kept the same camera hardware from the Pixel 2 all the way up to the Pixel 5. So, I don't really see Google ditching their Pixel 6 camera hardware after just one year but it doesn't mean that we won't see any camera improvements at all as every single year Google has improved their image processing significantly even if the hardware remains unchanged.
3. We have the second generation Google Tensor chip which we already know that Google is working on right.
Now the code name is GS201 and we've also seen some references of something code named cloud reaper which is said to be the developer board for 2022 flagships are in this there isn't anything else that we know about the Tensor 2 but we can safely assume that Google would focus quite heavily on the CPU and GPU performance we're tensor lack behind Qualcomm and Samsung.
It had some really impressive machine learning performance which is likely to get even better with a Tensor 2 opening the door for even more unique new features like the magic eraser that we got on the Pixel 6.
2. This new Tensor Chip should also give us an improved battery life the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro were not really that great in this regard with some very mixed feedback from reviewers and same goes for the frank bin reader which was one of the slowest that I've ever used on a phone. Now it did get better with software updates but I still don't think this is where it should be.
1. This is the biggest one by far and that is the new Google ecosystem. Google has the weakest ecosystem of any smartphone manufacturer today and that is because all of their other products like the google next accessories they already work with any other phones out there. So either necessarily need to have a Pixel.
On top of that Google still does not have a smartwatch of their own but this is about to change as according to John Prosser the Pixel watch will finally be announced and launched in October alongside Pixel 7 and the Pixel 7 Pro. I'm personally so excited for the smartwatch as I do believe that it has the best design of any smartwatch out there plus Google software it should work like a charm.
The Pixel watch has been rumored for so many years but it apparently got delayed over and over again if Google doesn't launch it now. I honestly don't think it's coming anymore like ever.
