According to a TechRadar report _,_ the device will be equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC paired with 4 GB of RAM. It is believed that the phone will have the same glass and metal combo used in the previous Pixel phone alongside a single-lens camera whose specifications have not yet been revealed.
