The CAD-based renders of the Pixel 8 Pro surfaced two days ago. What made a lot of people happy is the flat display on the phone, or at least it seemed like it. The Pixel 8 Pro display won’t be flat, it seems, but it’ll be close to it.
The Pixel 8 Pro display won’t be flat after all, but it won’t be far from it either
The same source that shared those CAD-based renders, @OnLeaks, now shared raw close-ups (CAD-based) for us to check out. Four images got shared, and the Pixel 8 sits next to the Pixel 7 Pro in two of them.
In the remaining two images, the tipster placed the Pixel 7 next to the Pixel 8. That way, we can see them side by side. What he focuses on here is the screen curvature, and the differences in the corner roundness.
Now, if you check out the two pictures in the gallery below, you’ll see the Pixel 8 Pro next to the Pixel 7 Pro. The first image shows us the screen curvature. The Pixel 8 Pro’s display is barely curved, so barely in fact, that it’s difficult to see at first. So it will have some curvature to it, but it will be negligible, basically, and that will make a lot of people happy. The Pixel 7 Pro, in comparison, is a completely different story.
The device will also have considerably more rounded corners
The second image in the gallery shows you the corner roundness of the two phones. The Pixel 8 Pro’s corners will be considerably more rounded in comparison. That should make the Pixel 8 Pro more pleasant to hold, but we’ll see.
Now, in the gallery below, you’ll see the Pixel 8 next to the Pixel 7. Both phones do have flat displays, but their corner roundness is different. The Pixel 8 will be in line with the Pixel 8 Pro in that regard, which is obvious here.
The Pixel 8 series is expected to arrive later this year, probably in October. We’re still far away from that point, so you can expect to see many more rumors and leaks as we get closer to the launch date. Google may even share some info during Google I/O in May.
