The Pixel 6 series launch is just around the corner, and thanks to leaks and Google itself, we know pretty much everything there is to know about it. While we’ve seen leaked renders, official renders, carefully crafted professional commercials live shots, and photos of the phone behind glass, there were still no hands-on videos.
Now, thanks to other leaked information, we have that too. The leak not only confirms that the Pixel 6 Pro will have a glossy back but also confirms Google Tensor specs.
Pixel 6 real-world images Pro were first shared publicly online today by ThisIsTechToday. The device is a prototype, as clearly indicated by the lack of the Google logo on the back, but the hardware shown should match the final product, as it apparently comes from a Product Validation Test (PVT) batch.
In addition to confirming the glossy back, this leak also confirms the specifications of the Google Tensor chip, as we mentioned earlier. An image of the phone running the CPU-Z app reveals that the Google Tensor CPU has two Cortex-X1 cores, Arm’s most powerful Cortex CPU to date. In contrast, neither the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 nor the Samsung Exynos 2100 have more than one Cortex-X1 core.
