The Google Pixel 6, whose existence has long been teased, may have finally made its appearance in the real world.

A mysterious video shared on Twitter by M. Brandon Lee appears to show a pre-production Pixel 6 Pro being turned over in the hands of a user. The phone's appearance is not a surprise, as Google has already shown off the Pixel 6 in renderings, in store displays in New York City, and in promotional videos on YouTube.

However, we had never seen the Pixel 6 in the flesh until this point, so seeing it in the figurative flesh is an exciting moment.

On the front, aside from the welcome interface, we can see the front selfie camera in the top center of the display, relocated from the left corner. The display itself is a 6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED panel, which has been confirmed by Google itself. The base Pixel 6 has a smaller 6.4" display with a maximum refresh rate of 90Hz.

When the person in the video flips the phone over, we see the camera rubber, which is the new location of the rear camera and the most distinctive design element of the Pixel 6. Also visible is the glossy gray back, which is one of three different colors offered on the Pixel 6 Pro.

The cameras in the Pixel 6 Pro's camera bump appear to be a combination of a 50MP main camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera, and a 48MP telephoto camera with 4x optical zoom. Together, these would be the highest number of cameras ever on a Pixel phone. The basic Pixel 6, on the other hand, is said to have only a main camera and an ultra-wide camera.

If you're wondering why there's an unfamiliar logo in the middle, it's a disguise, as Lee explains in a tweet. Before a phone can be sold, it needs to be tested in the real world, but in order to test the phone without prematurely releasing it to the public, companies use fake names and logos to hide things.

The most exciting thing about the Pixel 6 that you can't see in this video is the new chipset. Instead of using Snapdragon silicon as it has in the past, Google has designed its own chip, dubbed Tensor, for the Pixel 6. This new chip is focused on AI and machine learning capabilities and will affect every element of the Pixel experience. We are especially looking forward to seeing how the Pixel phones will impact photo processing, which already ranks on our best camera phones list.

We expect Google to officially announce the Pixel 6 in October, possibly on October 19, which has been rumored many times. It will be one of the last major phones launched this year, but the big changes promised to its hardware should help it compete with the best phones around like the newly released iPhone 13 and Samsung Galaxy S21.
