The front-facing camera, meanwhile, is eight megapixels on the 6 and 11 megapixels on the 6 Pro, with 84- and 94-degree fields of view, respectively. That last one does 4x optical or up to 20x Super Res, though even with computational photography, things are going to degrade pretty quickly.

The 6 supports two lenses: a 50-megapixel wide-angle camera and 12-megapixel on the 6, plus a 48 megapixel telephoto on the 6 Pro. Look no further than the setup on the new Pixels. For now, however, camera hardware is still important.
Perhaps one day in the future, someone will be able to make a compelling version of this argument, where AI and ML are doing most or all of the heavy lifting here. Google has long been so bullish on computational photography that it has implied that hardware is almost a moot point. The focus on camera hardware is, in and of itself, a departure for the company. There’s a slight difference in the hues above and below the camera bar, in an effort to inject a bit more color into the device, now that the Pixel no longer sports the color pop power button. It’s a sizable enough bump that the phone sits at an angle on its back, unless the phone is in a case, which keeps things more (but not perfectly ) flush. The rear, meanwhile, is covered in Gorilla Glass 6, with a large and distinctive camera bar that runs along the top third. We set out to make our own System on a Chip (SoC) to power Pixel 6. “So we set about building a technology platform built for mobile that enabled us to bring our most innovative AI and machine learning (ML) to our Pixel users. “AI is the future of our innovation work, but the problem is we’ve run into computing limitations that prevented us from fully pursuing our mission,” the executive wrote. Hardware head Rick Osterloh primarily focused on chips, design and the fact that Google was becoming the latest company to buck its reliance on Qualcomm by building its own in-house chip, Tensor. It was a surprisingly complete look at a device it would take another three and a half months to announce. The company gave us our first glimpse of the device back in August.
In many ways, the Pixel 6 marks the most radical departure in the history of Google’s flagship devices - and its most serious attempt to take the fight to Samsung and Apple. This morning, at the company’s virtual hardware event, however, Google is finally showing us what it means to pick up and start over again.
