Brilliant photography is undoubtedly one of the Google Pixel’s biggest selling points. For a while, however, Google relied on its camera software to carry its phones, while the hardware often lagged behind the competition. For example, the Sony IMX363 sensor, first introduced in the Pixel 3 in 2018 was only replaced in 2023! Fortunately, this has changed lately; Google has focused on hardware more and more in its recent smartphones.
After rather minor changes in the Pixel 7 series, Google made significant upgrades to the Pixel 8, and its upcoming Pixel 9 range is set to bring even more key enhancements. Thanks to a source inside Google, we can preview the new camera hardware changes coming to the upcoming Pixels.
