Google is working on a number of devices, including the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, according to sources.
Despite the fact that they are not expected to be released until later in the year, both gadgets have been leaked widely over the past few months. Google has also provided us with an early preview of the two smartphones, so we have a better idea of what to anticipate.
The following is a comparison of the Google Pixel 6 and the Google Pixel 6 Pro based on everything we have heard and learned so far about the two devices.
1.Design
Pixel 6 dimensions are 158.6 x 74.8 x 8.9mm, with a hump of 11.8mm.
Pixel 6 Pro dimensions are 163.9 x 75.8 x 8.9mm, with a hump of 11.5mm.
Despite the fact that the Google Pixel 6 and Google Pixel 6 Pro have a similar appearance, there are significant differences between the two versions based on leaked renderings and information provided by Google.
Both phones will feature a conspicuous horizontal camera housing that covers the full width of the back, however, the Pixel 6 will have a dual camera while the Pixel 6 Pro will have a triple camera. The Pixel 6 will be available in both black and white. The flash module is located on the right side of the housing, next to the lenses.
Although it seems that both devices will feature an under-display fingerprint sensor, in addition to a centered punch hole camera at the top of their displays, it appears that the Pixel 6 will have a flat screen, whilst the Pixel 6 Pro will have a little curvature to its display.
There has been no information about IP ratings disclosed in leaks as of yet, but the Pixel 5 is IP68 certified, so we would anticipate both the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro to provide the same protection as the previous model. The Pixel 6 Pro is anticipated to be the bigger smartphone in terms of physical dimensions.
A polished aluminum finish will also be available on the Pro, which will be available in black, white, and a yellow color option, while the Pixel 6 will have a matte finish and will be available in three color options: black/grey, blue/green, and orange/red.
2.Display
Pixel 6: 6.4-inch Full HD+ display with 120Hz refresh rate?
Pixel 6 Pro: 6.67-inch/6.71-inch display with Quad HD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate?
A 6.4-inch display, which is flat, is expected to be included with the Google Pixel 6, according to the company’s press release. It is expected to have a Full HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, according to the manufacturer.
The Pixel 6 Pro, on the other hand, is anticipated to include either a 6.67-inch curved display or a 6.71-inch plastic OLED panel, which would make it somewhat larger and more unique than the regular model.
It’s expected to have a Quad HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 120Hz, according to rumors.
Because the Pixel 5 has HDR capability, we anticipate that both variants will have it as well.
3.Hardware and specifications
Pixel 6: Google’s Tensor processor, 8GB of RAM, 128/256GB of storage, and a notch.
Pixel 6 Pro has a Tensor chip developed by Google, 12GB of RAM, 128/256/512GB of storage, and a 5000mAh battery.
The Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will both be equipped with Tensor, which is the company’s own system-on-chip. It has been built with security in mind, and it will be the platform for all artificial intelligence and machine learning applications, ranging from computational photography to real-time translation and interpretation.
According to reports, it will provide raw performance that is somewhere between that of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 and that of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888, but there is also speculation that it will be about the same as the Snapdragon 700 series.
In terms of memory, the Pixel 6 is expected to feature 8GB of RAM and storage choices ranging from 128GB to 256GB, while the Pixel 6 Pro is said to have 12GB of RAM as well as storage options including 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB.
In terms of battery capacity, the Pixel 6 is expected to feature a 4614mAh capacity, while the Pixel 6 Pro is expected to have a slightly higher 5000mAh capacity.
4.Cameras
Pixel 6: Dual camera (50MP+12MP), with an 8MP front-facing camera
Pixel 6 Pro has a triple camera (50MP+48MP+12MP), as well as a 12MP front camera.
The Google Pixel 6 will be equipped with a dual-camera system, as shown by the official photographs. There have been rumors of a 50-megapixel primary camera that will be paired with a 12-megapixel super-wide-angle sensor, but there has been no confirmation on this front.
The Pixel 6 Pro, on the other hand, will have a triple rear camera setup, which will reportedly have the same 50-megapixel primary sensor and 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor as the Pixel 6 but will also include a telephoto sensor in addition to the wide-angle sensor. However, Google has only confirmed that it would be a 4x optical telephoto lens, which is the only information that has been released thus far. The resolution of the telephoto lens has been rumored to be both 8-megapixels and 48-megapixels, thus it is still unknown which will be used.
It has also been reported that the front-facing camera would be capable of capturing 4K footage. It is still unclear if this will be available on both the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, or whether it will just be available on the Pro model. There is speculation that the Pixel 6 will feature an 8-megapixel front camera, while the Pixel 6 Pro is expected to have an 11-megapixel front camera.
Conclusion
For the time being, the Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro’s most important specifications are based on rumors and conjecture. While the two smartphones will seem quite similar, we do know that the Pro model will have an even more premium finish thanks to the inclusion of a curved display and a triple-lens camera setup on the back.
In addition, the 6 Pro is anticipated to feature a slightly bigger display with a better resolution, as well as more RAM and a larger battery. The Pixel 6 is expected to be much less expensive than the Pixel 6 Pro, and the two smartphones will share the same processor and other components.
