The company Google announced the arrival of the Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 8 smartphones on its website several times. Google has announced its annual event (Google I/O) for October 4, and usually presents new Android phones at that time. Quite a few improvements are expected, both in terms of design, digital cameras, sensors, sensors, processors and practically all other components. The Google company also "proved" this with the unexpected publication of a presentation video of the new Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 8 phones. The video surprised even the most connoisseurs, as it is a very unusual move on the part of the mobile giant. The mentioned video is available for viewing below or at the link https://youtu.be/u_uap-98Knw.

Although the company has not yet revealed information about the upcoming Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro smartphones, the latter is in the spotlight for even longer, as it will be much more powerful. ÄŒif online rumors are to be believed, this one will be equipped with Google Tensor G3+ Titan mobile processor. Of course, it will not be as powerful as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, but we do not expect performance problems. A 6.17-inch or 15.7-centimeter diagonal screen with a resolution of 2,268 x 1,080 pixels will be available for displaying images. The rest of the hardware will include another 12 gigabytes of system memory and 128 gigabytes, 256 gigabytes or 512 gigabytes of storage space. The icing on the cake will be a camera with a resolution of 50 million pixels.

The new Google Pixel 8 Pro is said to even have a sensor for measuring body temperature, which could be used to measure the temperature of people and objects at a distance of up to five centimeters. The entire temperature measurement should take about five minutes. The latest Android 14 will be installed on it. Of course, this will bring a rich range of new options and functionality.

The smart mobile Teflon Google Pixel 8 Pro is said to be more expensive compared to its predecessor. The entry-level version of the Google Pixel 8 Pro smartphone (128 gigabytes of space) is said to be valued at as much as 1,235 euros, which is as much as 336 euros more. from the current Pixel 7 Pro model. A slightly more powerful model with 256 gigabytes of available space is said to be valued at as much as 1,309 euros, or 310 euros more from the Pixel 7 Pro model with the same memory capacity. For the most powerful version of the Google Pixel 8 Pro phone with 512 gigabytes of built-in memory, as much as 1,461 euros should be charged.

If the predictions turn out to be true, Google will lose the price advantage it had over Samsung and Apple phones, as well as other manufacturers (Xiaomi, Honor, Oppo …). What is perhaps even more important, even for existing users, is the news that Google phones will finally get (some have already) support for 5G, VoLTE and VoWiFi in Slovenia.

It is expected that before or immediately after the release, the older models will experience a reduction in price. You can currently get the Pixel 7a for 499 euros, the Pixel 7 for 539 euros, and the Pixel 7 Pro for 750 euros. The release of the new phones is announced for October 4. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait until then. If the new Pixel 8 phones will really be that much more expensive, then the Pixel 7 phones are still a very good alternative.
