3 years ago by AlmightySnoo ๐Ÿข๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ to c/googlepixel

According to sources inside Google, the Pixel 8 series sports faster charging and slightly bigger batteries, along with other improvements.

tl;dr:

  • "Both the regular Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro see a small 4W bump in charging power โ€” the devices now support 24W and 27W charging, respectively";
  • "Googleโ€™s upgrading the chip to BCM4398, which supports Wi-Fi 7, for both the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro";
  • "While the Pixel 8 Pro will include a UWB module, an upgraded one at that, itโ€™s still missing from the smaller Pixel 8"
