Both, Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will have a massive camera bump that stretches horizontally across the back panel, giving you a Daft Punk-like vibe. The vanilla model will have two sensors, whereas the Pro model will have a triple-camera setup. Details about the camera sensors are currently unknown. However, we can expect the vanilla model to feature a main and ultrawide angle, whereas the Pro model will have an additional telephoto lens.

At the front, both phones will have extremely thin bezels around the hole-punch display. The devices will also come with an in-display fingerprint scanner. Details about the display size and other specifications are currently unknown.
