When Google introduced the new Pixel 5a 5G mid-range smartphone a few days ago, many fans of the brand wondered when it would be introduced Google Pixel 6? This should happen in September and the portal PhoneArena he already knows the camera sensor of this flagship.

A new chipset should help the new camera sensor

Google would like to introduce up to two flagship models this year – Google Pixel 6 a Pixel 6 Pro. It has also been known for a long time that the news will be powered by the Tensor chipset, which Google developed in cooperation with the South Korean manufacturer Samsung. Thanks to this chipset, news cameras should be able to handle the following options:

• Night mode
• Portrait mode
• Slow motion
• Native 4K / 8K video recording at 30/60 frames per second
• Support for high resolution sensors 48 MP / 50 MP / 64 MP / 100 MP / 200 MP etc.
• Support for multiple types of sensors with different focal lengths – primary, zoom and ultra-wide sensors

We can already find the Google Pixel 6 camera sensor on the market

The primary sensor should be one year old Samsung ISOCELL GN1. It is a large sensor (1 / 1.3 inches) with a resolution of 50 megapixels. Tetracell technology allows you to increase the native pixel size from 1.2 μm to 2.4 μm by combining four pixels into one. Of course, there is also support for videos in 8K resolution.

Samsung ISOCELL GN1 is most often used in Chinese flag smartphones. He cites the portal as an example PhoneArena model Vivo X60 Pro +. To give an idea of ​​the capabilities of the sensor, he also attaches sample photos that were created with this smartphone.

At first glance, the good operation of the sensor with light in poor lighting is visible. If anyone argues that these are fake images created in Photoshop, the portal also adds a direct comparison of photos with the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra model.

When compared directly, it is clear which camera offers better brightness. It is already clear that the Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro smartphones will once again be among the best on the market. One can only hope that we will actually see their performances as early as September.
