Google Pixel 8/8 Pro review: We fix it in the post!
The leaked display specs come from Android Authority, and it looks like the Pixel 8 series won't disappoint. The leak suggests that both the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro will come with smaller screens. The vanilla Pixel 8 will come with a 6.17-inch display and the Pixel 8 Pro will offer a 6.70-inch display. If we compare it to the Pixel 7 range that was introduced last October, the Pixel 7 comes with a 6.31-inch 90Hz OLED flat display while the Pixel 7 Pro has a 6.71-inch 90Hz OLED curved panel.
The biggest thing to note is that both smartphones come with flat OLED panels and a 120Hz variable refresh rate. This indicates that the vanilla Google Pixel 8 can toggle between 10Hz and 120Hz, while the 8 Pro can go as low as 5Hz.
There are other notable upgrades to the display as well. For example, the Pixel 8 will have 1,400 nits of brightness compared to the Pixel 7's 1,000 nits of brightness, and the Pixel 8 Pro will offer 1,600 nits of brightness compared to the Pixel 7 Pro's 1,400 nits. The Pixel 8 series comes with HDR support right out of the box.
