The rumor market has been hot for some time now over the Google Pixel 6 series. Google’s upcoming flagship series will be a successor to last year’s not-so-flagshipy Pixel 5. They are expected to make some major changes this time around. The most interesting tidbit about the Google Pixel 6 series is that for the first time, the company could use its own chipset. And now a fresh new leak tells us the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro is likely to get 5 years of Android updates, which would put it in line with the Industry benchmark, ie., iPhones.
Besides that, the leaks also reveal the alleged key specs of both these Pixels.
