Google officially unveiled the Pixel 5 yesterday, and Google’s latest flagship is now available to pre-order on O2 custom plans ahead of it being on sale on 15th October.
Pixel 5 brings a 6-inch display, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage space, a 4080 mAh battery, an ultrawide camera, and a handful of new software features. Under the hood, the Pixel 5 is powered by a Snapdragon 765G processor, enabling support for 5G with Qualcomm’s integrated X52 modem.
Along with the usual 12.2MP main camera, the Pixel 5 now features a 16MP ultrawide camera in place of the telephoto lens we have seen on older Pixel devices.
The new ultra-wide lens will feature a FOV of 107 degrees, while the front camera will be an 8MP sensor. Google is also adding support for 4K 60FPS and 1080p 240FPS video recording to the main camera.
The front-facing camera is now housed within a punch-hole notch, which means Google is getting rid of all the sensors that enabled Face Unlock. There’s now a fingerprint scanner on the back of the phone instead.
The device also features wireless and reverse wireless charging.
Customers can get their hands on the Pixel 5 for £36.81 per month for 5GB of data with a £30 upfront payment.
Pre-order the new Google Pixel 5 on O2 by 19 October and you will get a pair of Bose QC35 II wireless ANC headphones for free. Pixel 5 will also come with three months of Google Stadia Pro cloud gaming free.
