Google is preparing to unveil the Pixel 7 series smartphones at the Made By Google event on October 6. Tensor G2 chipsets will be used in the devices.
The Pixel 7 Pro has appeared on Geekbench ahead of its launch, giving us an idea of the new chip performance. Onboard the chipset is an octa-core processor with a base frequency of 1.80GHz. Two of the cores have a maximum clock speed of 2.35GHz, and the other two can boost to 2.85GHz.
The company appears to be using the same combination of two Cortex-X1 cores, two Cortex-A76 cores, and four Cortex-A55 cores, but with faster clock speeds. The Mali-G710 GPU onboard the chipset is expected to offer a 20% performance boost and a 20% increase in power efficiency.
According to Geekbench 5, the Google Pixel 7 Pro scores 1068 points on the single-core test and 2149 points on the multi-core test. Aside from that, the listing indicates that the device has 12GB of RAM and runs Android 12.
Google Pixel 7 Pro specs (expected)
In terms of design, the Pixel 7 Pro will retain the majority of the Pixel 6 Pro details while making some changes. It's said to have a 6.7-inch 120Hz OLED display.
The device will have three sensors on the back for optics. A 50MP main camera (Samsung GN1), a 13MP ultrawide camera (Sony IMX38), and a 48MP telephoto camera will be included (Samsung GM1). The device will most likely have a 10.87MP (Samsung 3J1) sensor on the front.
