Currently, it is difficult if not impossible not to discover a mobile phone before its official release. There are always rumors, leaks from somewhere, and sometimes details that let us know all the devices. But there are brands that are more affected by it than others, and Google leaks phones months before launch.

This is the latest leaked case of the company’s new premium serial terminal, the Google Pixel 8 Pro. expected in October, but once the ban is opened, we’ll likely continue to learn about the features before Google makes it official. Although there were leaks… and the leaks and that of the Pixel 8 Pro were pretty innocent.

We already know the back of the Pixel 8 Pro: it will have a mysterious sensor

This isn’t the first leak this model has experienced. In mid-March, OnLeaks created a render showing what the Pixel 8 Pro would look like thanks to the CAD files. In these images, those seen on Google’s previous generation mobiles are closely followed by the strange design of the camera module. , but with some more sensors.

Apart from combining wide-angle, telephoto, and wide-angle under one glass (the Pixel 7 Pro had two glasses because the telephoto was split), we were able to see. a mysterious sensor just below the flash. The first leaked photo confirms that what OnLeaks devised at the time was completely correct.

First thing: in terms of design, we have those conservative lines, but with the camera module we saw in the leak March. One more surprise is missing for the official presentation. And in terms of hardware, we can see that this unit packs 12GB of Samsung-manufactured LPDDR5 memory and 128GB.

RAM won’t be Samsung’s only feature on the Google phone, because we will again have a Tensor, the G3 codenamed ‘Zuma’But we don’t know more at the moment. Speaking of codenames, the Pixel 8 Pro is the previously leaked ‘Husky’.

However, the way this leak occurs is intriguing. As we saw on Droid Life, this is a test unit, a prototype (protruding bezels on the front so don’t worry because it’s probably a case in point) and the person who leaked this commented on Reddit that he “received it from the Google device team for testing”.

A photo shared on social network was too innocent and actually deleted it right away. They must have said something to him or understood what he was doing, but it was too late. We don’t know what will happen to that person but thanks to previous leaks we do know that the Pixel 8 Pro has the backdrop we expected.
