The hot new feature for the upcoming Pixel 8 series could produce a deja vu feeling among Pixel fans.
The Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro will be introduced on October 4th along with the Pixel Watch 2. What will be the key feature that Google will use to prevent Pixel users from switching to other Android phones like the S23 Ultra, or the iPhone 15 series? While Google did improve the Pixel 7 series compared to the Pixel 6, there is speculation that we will finally see an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint scanner on the series to fix a problem that has been a pain point for Pixel users since the release of the line.An ultrasonic fingerprint scanner is not the sexy new feature that drives consumers to choose a specific phone. The slightly larger capacity battery, when combined with a more efficient chipset, might increase battery life for the phones, but it probably won’t be enough of a needle mover to keep power users like this writer from buying the iPhone 15 Pro Max which should offer amazing battery life thanks to the 3nm A17 Bionic SoC, and the rumored large increases in battery capacity.
