The Pixel 7 series is expected to go into mass production at Foxconn soon, as Google continues preparations for launch scheduled for early October (pre-orders October 6, sales October 13, complaints rumors).
Part of the pre-launch process is getting the green light from the FCC. The regulator documents show four models: GP4BC, GVU6C, GE2AE and GQML3. The first two support 5G sub-6GHz, the other two also have mmWave connectivity.
Four FCC certified Pixel 7 models: GP4BC, GVU6C, GE2AE and GQML
MmWave versions will be available in the US, but as this type of 5G is not as popular around the world, some regions will only receive models below 6GHz.
The GP4BC and GE2AE also feature UWB. Considering the Pixel 6 Pro was the first Google phone to use the new short-range connectivity option (and the vanilla 6 lost), these two are likely Pixel 7 Pro.
All four phones support Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth, NFC, and wireless charging.
The Pixel 7 series is expected to introduce the Tensor 2 chipset, a relatively small improvement over the original. The Pro model will receive a new display panel, although it will have the same basic measurements: 6.7 “, QHD + and 120Hz (LTPO). It should be brighter, however, reaching 1,000 nits.
Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel 7 and Pixel Watch
Based on unofficial information, the vanilla model will have a slightly smaller 6.3 “display (instead of 6.4”), but it is unclear whether or not it will update from a 90Hz refresh rate. As for the cameras, both will use the same sensors for the main and ultra wide modules (50MP GN1 and 12MP IMX381). Only the Pro should have a telephoto lens, probably still using a 48MP sensor.
The Pixel 7 and 7 Pro are expected in October and will likely be joined by the long-awaited Pixel Watch. It’s not certain if the Pixel Fold will join them. Google isn’t good at keeping secrets, so we should know before launch either way.
