The next Google Pixels may have major camera upgrades

Few would reason that nan Google Pixel 9 is simply a awesome phone, but a immense leak from Google’s gChips section has conscionable shown america what we tin look guardant to successful nan Pixel 10 and Pixel 11 show and cameras.

Let america beryllium nan first to show you: it’s really, really cool. There’s a batch to spell through, and astir of our accusation comes courtesy of Android Authority.

Even much generative features

The Tensor G5 is expected to debut pinch nan Pixel 10 and bring pinch it a slew of AI-focused tools, including 1 called “Video Generative ML.” That’s a vague name, and nan explanation doesn’t supply overmuch clarity: “Post-capture Generative AI-based Intuitive Video Editing for nan Photos app.”

Don’t interest if you still aren’t judge astir what it does. We aren’t either, but an knowledgeable conjecture tells america that users could usage AI to edit a video, making it overmuch easier to destruct glitches aliases dormant aerial connected recordings. That intends you could perchance grounds a podcast and past inquire nan AI to region your sneeze without scrubbing done nan full signaling yourself.

The AI features don’t extremity there, though. Google is besides said to beryllium moving connected different editing features, including 1 called “speak to tweak” and different called “sketch to image.” The second is reminiscent of Samsung’s characteristic of nan aforesaid name.

According to Android Authority, there’s besides a characteristic called “Magic Mirror,” but location are nary specifications arsenic to what that includes.

Major camera upgrades

The Pixel statement already boasts immoderate of nan champion cameras of immoderate telephone connected nan market, but Google isn’t contented to extremity there. While we aren’t judge precisely what nan camera upgrades will include, nan Tensor G5 will beryllium foundational to nan improvements. It tin reportedly support 4K 60fps HDR video (a leap from nan 30fps regularisation of erstwhile models).

However, what’s much awesome is nan rumored Tensor G6 that will powerfulness nan Pixel 11. It could perchance support 100x camera zoom done nan usage of instrumentality learning. That’s an perfectly absurd level of magnification, particularly erstwhile nan aforesaid leak hints astatine a caller telephoto lens coming to nan Pixel 11.

However, nan Pixel 11 saves nan champion for last: ultra low-light video recording. Yes, nan telephone already has a akin feature, but it relies connected unreality processing. The Pixel 11 will theoretically beryllium capable to execute each of this processing on-device.

A load of different features are hinted at, too, but we’ll springiness nan aforesaid disclaimer we ever do: leaks only show what’s presently successful development. Features could beryllium changed aliases scrapped wholly earlier they make it to production. That said, different rumors — for illustration nan thought that the Pixel 11 could bring backmost IR look unlock — make it sound for illustration an moreover much appealing portion of hardware than it already did.
