Google Pixel 7 to support 4K selfie video, Pixel Tablet to feature a single main camera
A new version 8.5 of the Google Camera app for Pixel smartphones has begun rolling out and 9to5Google has spotted some evidence about the Google Pixel 7 in its latest âAPK Insightâ post.
Thereâs evidence that suggests that both the Google Pixel 7 and 7 Pro will use new front-facing camera sensors that are capable of recording 4K video. This is denoted by the camera tags found within the APKâs code âp21_front_setupâ which was previously only tagged on the Pixel 6 Pro.
As of now, it isnât known whether the Pixel 7 duo will equip the same 11.1MP sensor found in the Google Pixel 6 Pro, but 9to5Google is certain of both devicesâ ability to do front-facing 4K like the Pixel 6 Pro (the Pixel 6 isnât able to).
On to the Pixel Tablet: The code found âincludes early preparationsâ for the tablet and thereâs a sliver of evidence suggesting that the unreleased Pixel Tablet has a single rear-facing camera. It is only presumed that this Tablet would have a front-facing camera at all, but it is still too early to call it given that the Google Pixel Tablet is not expected to arrive until sometime next year.
Other things found regarding the Pixel Tablet include feature removals. The Pixel Tablet wonât have many of the camera features from the Pixel smartphones including: 4K recording at 60 fps, 4K recording (at all), Audio Zoom, Slow Motion, and Action Pan photos.
The Pixel 7 and 7 Pro were unveiled during Google I/O last month and are expected to be fully announced, along with the Google Pixel Watch, sometime this fall.
