Google Pixel roadmap leaks and here is what we learn about Pixel 8 and other upcoming phones

After the wild success of the Google Pixel 7 (and the earlier success of the Google Pixel 6 lineup), it's safe to say that the company has finally hit the nail on the head. Google is working on a future Pixel lineup and has outlined plans for new smartphones in the coming years. Android Authority recently revealed these plans via a trustworthy, anonymous source.

Android Authority shared a roadmap that revealed that the Google Pixel 8 is already in the works. The two smartphones were labelled in the roadmap via codenames - Shiba (which is presumed to be the Google Pixel 8) and Husky (which may be the Google Pixel 8 Pro). The Pixel 8 is believed to be smaller than the Pixel 7, while the Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 7 Pro will be identical. 

Moreover, we may also see the Google Pixel 7a launch in May/June of 2023, along with the Google Pixel Fold. The former may feature wireless charging and a 90Hz refresh rate. Rumours indicate that the Google Pixel Fold will be priced at $1,799. (approximately ₹65,484). Google is also working on a flip phone that may be a direct competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4.

Google’s plans for 2024

The roadmap shows that Google is planning to launch the Google Pixel 8a in 2024 (codenamed Akita), along with the Google Pixel 9 lineup in late 2024. What’s interesting is that the Pixel 9 lineup may have two pro-level models and one regular model. The pro-level models will feature a 6.7-inch screen and a 6.3-inch screen. These smartphones may have the Tensor G4 chip.
