Google launched the Pixel 5 smartphone in September this year. Now, almost three months later, reports of the Pixel 5 successor, that is, the Google Pixel 6 smartphone, have already begun to flood the internet.
According to the latest report from Slash Leaks (via GizChina), Google’s next generation Pixel smartphone will show subtle changes compared to its predecessor. For example, the back of the phone will contain a square camera module placed on the left. It has four holes, two of which are supposedly for the camera and the other two for the LED flash and sensor. This setup is similar to what we’ve seen in the case of the Pixel 5 smartphone.

The front of the phone, on the other hand, is a completely different matter. The images shared reveal that the next-generation Pixel phone will not come with a perforated screen as is the case with this year’s Pixel 5 smartphone. Instead, it comes with a camera sensor below the display. “There is no hole for the front camera,” the image says.
It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first we’ve heard of a Pixel 5 successor. In recent months, several reports have hinted that Google is working on a phone called Pixel 5 Pro. However, those reports were rejected by noted tipster Jon Prosser who said the phone was not real.
