In 2023, Google decided to shrink the screen of the standard model of the Pixel 8 smartphone. informs Ross Young, citation analyst and CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC), Mashable.
According to Yang, the Pixel 8 will have a 6.16-inch screen. In the previous two generations – Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 – Google used a 6.32-inch matrix.
At the same time, the screen size of the Pixel 8 Pro will not change, and it will be the same as the 6.7 inches. Although the display form factor is expected to change. If earlier in the Pro version Google used screens with rounded edges, then in 2023 the flagship smartphone will receive a flat panel.
Mashable believes there are two reasons why Google decided to “cut” the Pixel 8 display: First, the company wants to further emphasize the difference between the standard model and the Pro version. Second, using a smaller screen would allow Google to save money on producing a smartphone and possibly make it cheaper for consumers.
Google is expected to introduce new smartphones from the Pixel 8 series in the fall of 2023.
