Welcome to what could very well be the
first look at the Google Pixel 5. The renders below are based off of CAD
schematics and show what Google's upcoming compact Pixel 5 could look like.
From the rear the Pixel 5 looks very much like the Google Pixel 4 with a dual
camera setup, however the Pixel 5 also has a capacitive fingerprint scanner -
something the Pixel 4 dropped in favor of face recognition.
The front of the Pixel 5 features a single
selfie camera, embedded into the display via a punch hole. Based on the CAD
data, the Pixel 5 will measure 144.6x70.4x8mm - slightly shorter and narrower
than the Pixel 4.
Back in February we saw the first
purported render of the Google Pixel 5 XL, which featured a triple camera on
the rear. If the renders of the Pixel 5 prove correct then we could be looking
at different camera specs for the different Pixel 5 models - a move away from
the norm.
Google is yet to unveil the mid-range
Pixel 4a, which has been delayed since May. That phone is expected any moment
now, while the Pixel 5's should arrive in October or even November. However
some sources point to an October unveil for the Pixel 4a, which would push an
eventual Pixel 5 unveil even further back.
We know very little of the Pixel 5. The
strongest rumor we've had so far points to the Pixel 5 using a Snapdragon 765,
instead of a full-on flagship Snapdragon 865.
