We’re still months away from the eventual unveiling of the Google Pixel 8 phones. However, we’ve been following all kinds of leaks and rumors regarding these upcoming flagships. Thanks to a tweet from Yogesh Brar (via Phone Arena), we have some leaked specs for the Pixel 8 Pro.
We expect the typical upgrades with the Pixel 8 phones. They will use the latest Google Tensor chip and bring some improvements to the cameras. Along with those, they’re going to launch with Android 14 out of the box. While we wait for the phone to come out, we’ll definitely get more information on these phones.
Here are some leaked specs for the Pixel 8 Pro
The Pixel 8 Pro is going to be the more premium of the phones. Thus, the specs are going to be more robust than what we’ll see in the regular Pixel 8.
As for the leak, Brar states that the Pixel 8 Pro will have a 6.7-inch HDQ+ OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The leak also states that it will use LTPO technology. With this technology, the phone’s refresh rate will drop to an incredibly low number if the user is looking at a still image. This could lead to battery savings.
As for the internals, the tweet says that it will use the Tensor G3 with the Titan security chip, and that should come as no surprise. It says that they will be backed up by 12GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB of onboard storage. Those are identical to what we saw in the Pixel 7 Pro; however, the Pixel 7 Pro had a 512GB variant.

Moving onto the cameras, it appears that this phone will have a 50MP main camera, 64MP ultrawide camera, and a 48MP telephoto camera. Up front, we’re looking at an 11MP front-facing camera.
As for the battery, the leak states that it will be ever so slightly smaller than the standard 5,000mAh. It points to a 4,950mAh battery with 27W charging.
When the Pixel 8 phones launch, we’re expecting these phones to be a bit more expensive than what we saw with the Pixel 6 and Pixel 7. A rumor points to the Pixel 8 costing $649. That’s a $50 increase from what we saw in the recent years. We’re not sure how much the Pixel 8 Pro is going to cost, but we expect it to be similar.
Just know that these are all leaked specs, so you’ll want to take them with a grain of salt.
