Pixel 8 Pro Could Ditch Curved Display for Flat Screen

Meanwhile, the Pixel 8 is set to receive its own display upgrade. Surprisingly, the device will reportedly sport a smaller screen compared to the Pixel 7. Android Authority suggests that the phone will come with a 6.17-inch display featuring a resolution of 1,080 x 2,400. This maintains the same resolution as the Pixel 7’s 6.31-inch screen but offers a higher dot pitch. The Pixel 8’s screen is also expected to provide 1,400 nits of peak brightness, an improvement from its predecessor, and a 120Hz refresh rate instead of the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7a’s 90Hz. The decision to opt for a smaller display on the Pixel 8 may be related to rumors that the Pixel 7a could be the last in Google’s a-Series lineup.
