Recently, Yogesh said that Google's upcoming new mobile phone, Google Pixel 6, may be equipped with a chip developed by Google. The chip is temporarily named "Whitechapel" and its performance will be close to that of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chip.

Regarding the specific information of this self-developed chip, Yogesh said that the chip will use Samsung's 5nm process, with performance between Snapdragon 865 and Snapdragon 888, and roughly close to that of Snapdragon 870. The chip will not try to challenge the top performance of Snapdragon 888, but will focus on machine learning and artificial intelligence. In addition, this CPU chip will also be equipped with a GPU code-named "Mali", but the details of this GPU are still unclear.

Some general configuration information and renderings of Google's Pixel 6 mobile phone have been exposed last week. This phone will use a 6.67-inch curved AMOLED screen. The front camera uses a screen opening solution, which is located at the center of the top of the screen. The rear camera uses a three-camera solution, including a periscope zoom camera. This is the first time that Google has adopted a periscope zoom camera in a mobile phone.

In addition, Google Pixel 6 Pro mobile phone will have a very narrow frame, the size of the mobile phone is 163.9 x 75.8 x 8.9 mm, the thickness of the camera protrusion increased to 11.5 mm. The phone is also equipped with dual stereo speakers, supports wireless charging, and supports fingerprint unlocking under the screen. The phone will also support a high refresh rate of 120Hz and is equipped with a large 5000mAh battery.

Google is expected to release Google Pixel 6 and Google Pixel 6 Pro in October 2021. However, due to the global core shortage, Google may also postpone the release.
