Google Pixel 8: Leaks leave little to imagination ahead of Oct 4 launch

Google Pixel 8: Leaks leave little to imagination ahead of Oct 4 launch


Representative Image: Google Pixel 7 series


Just weeks ahead of the Google Pixel 8 series launch, details on the products have emerged on the web revealing key information about the duo of the smartphones that are slated for launch on October 4. On X (formerly Twitter), a user named Kamila Wojciechowska had recently posted images of what appears to be the official Pixel 8 series’ Google Store product listings.


According to the information available on the images, the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are set to bring notable camera-focused upgrades besides season upgrades related to processor, design, and interface.


The camera setup on the Pixel 8 Pro is reported to have the ability to shoot at full resolution. The Pro model might also feature a Video Boost feature, which is said to automatically adjust colour, graininess, lighting, and stabilisation. New leaks also add fuel to previous rumours that suggested Night Sight Video capability on the new Pixel smartphones.


The alleged product listing also states several previously rumoured camera features, such as the Best Take feature to swap out expressions in group shots, Audio Magic Eraser, and macro mode for the vanilla Pixel 8.


The listings mentions the previously speculated 6.7-inch LTPO screen for the Pixel 8 Pro, and a 6.2-inch screen for the baseline model.


The Pixel 8 Pro is said to have matte glass back, while the vanilla Pixel 8 might get satin finish on the rear. The upcoming pixel smartphones are expected to come with IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.


Google is expected to offer up to seven years of OS, security and feature drop updates beginning with the Pixel 8 line.

Disruption at Pegatron plant unlikely to affect iPhone production in India

Disruption at Pegatron plant unlikely to affect iPhone production in India



Pegatron, one of Apple Inc.’s three suppliers in India, halted iPhone production at its Chennai factory on Sunday night following a minor fire. However, this decision is unlikely to significantly affect iPhone production in the country. It is also not expected to impact the availability of the newly launched iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus.


According to sources assessing the ramifications of a brief production halt, the disruption is estimated to be at most 0.1 per cent of the total annual iPhone production from its suppliers if the factory remains closed for 4-5 days. The figure could increase if there’s a more extensive delay in resuming production.


Pegatron is the smallest iPhone assembler, with the Foxconn Hon Hai facility being the dominant player, handling approximately 50 per cent of iPhone assembly. Currently, Foxconn is the sole producer of the newly launched iPhone 15 and 15 Plus models in India.

On the other hand, Pegatron has focused on assembling older iPhone models, including the iPhone 13 and 14, according to informed sources. Counterpoint data indicates that the company assembles about 10 per cent of the iPhones in the country, although other sources suggest a larger share.

In terms of exports as well, Pegatron trails behind. S&P Global data reveals that it exported iPhones worth $1.36 billion in FY23, compared to $2.06 billion by Foxconn Hon Hai and $1.98 billion by Wistron. As a result, its share of total exports stands at a mere 25 per cent.


The fire, discovered on Sunday night, led to the temporary factory closure. Although no specific timeline has been given for resumption, Pegatron issued a statement on Monday saying there was a “spark incident” that will not have a significant financial or operational impact.


Sources say that even if all three suppliers had similar capacities, the fire’s impact would not exceed 0.36 per cent of India’s total iPhone production. If the Pegatron facility stays closed for seven days, it would affect only 0.6 per cent of the overall production.


Retailers affiliated with Apple Inc. note that the company maintains a four-week stockpile, so they foresee no issues.


This is not the first disruption at an iPhone assembly facility. Foxconn also temporarily shut its plants following worker protests due to a food poisoning incident.
