Google took advantage of the Google I/O 2022 event to talk to us not only about software but also about hardware. The hero of mobile phones has become the long-awaited Google Pixel 6a, but Google wanted to show us a small appetizer of what it is. Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro.

We’ve already seen the design of these new devices that have evolved a bit more than what the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro have. Google Tensor processor has also been renewed.

Aluminum comes into play

Google wanted to show us some preview images of what the new smartphone family will be. In this design, the lines already marked with the Pixel 6 / Pro are preserved, but the bar where the cameras are integrated made from recycled aluminum, now also used in the chassis.

This camera layout It’s different from what we saw on the Pixel 6/Pro, but there were no technical details about these sensors. Using aluminum seems like a good idea: The glass of current models was more fragile.

Google also stated that these phones will have it. The next generation of Google Tensor SoCand also emphasized that logically they will have Android 13.
