According to the details available on the Google News Telegram channel (first spotted by Android Police). A Pixel 7 prototype owner, whose phone was remotely brick by Google, assisted in revealing some under-the-hood information. About the phone’s display, SoC, and codenames, implying that previous leaks may not have been entirely accurate.
The first piece of information concerns the smartphone’s display. The Pixel 7 boot logs reveal that the upcoming handset will have a Samsung S6E3HC4 display. The Pixel 6 Pro was equippe with a Samsung S6E3HC3 panel, effectively contradicting a report. That claimed the new Pixel phones would have the same Samsung displays as last year’s handsets.
The second piece of information concerns the Pixel 7 Pro’s second-generation Google Tensor SoC. The SoC will use the same 4+2+2 cluster design as the Tensor chip from last year. In addition, the processor is expect to use Cortex-A55 cores for low-power background tasks. As it did in last year’s Pixel devices. No specific information is available, but a BL31 log is said to include “language for a workaround required to use the A55 cores.”
