Notably, the leaked information suggests that only the Pixel 8 Pro will feature ultra-wideband (UWB) support, enabling more precise device tracking. This feature is somewhat surprising, as Google is rumored to be developing its own AirTags competitor, making the exclusion of UWB support on the standard Pixel 8 a point of interest.
Another noteworthy leak indicates that both the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro will retain physical SIM card slots, despite previous rumors suggesting exclusive support for eSIMs. This decision aligns with user preferences for flexibility in choosing mobile carriers.
