Specs have been released for the modem used in the Pixel 7 series, the Exynos 5300. The modem is also expected to be found in the Pixel 8 line.
The Pixel 6 series ran into all sorts of connectivity issues with Samsung’s Exynos 5123 modem. Users were often confronted with the inability to make a phone call at a moment when they needed to make a call the most. Several Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro users ended up trading in their phones because of problems they had with the modem. Not wanting to repeat this with the Pixel 7 line, Google turned to the Exynos 5300 modem, integrated it into the Google Tensor 2 SoC and the results have shown a huge improvement.
Google was able to get early access from Sammy for the modem which explains why Samsung is just now releasing a spec sheet for the component.
