What Changes Under The Hood
The device, internally codenamed Formosan, could feature Google’s Tensor G6 chip. It could be paired with the Titan M3 security chip. The GPU is listed as a PowerVR C-Series unit, which aligns with what has already been reported for the Tensor G6 platform in the Pixel 11 leaks.
On the connectivity front, the modem is expected to be the MediaTek M90, the same unit reportedly being used across the Pixel 11 series. Three regional SKUs are listed: GQ05X for global markets, GP1BL for Japan, and G4XQ2 for North America.

Display, Battery, Cameras, And Colors
The leaks point to a 6.3-inch display with 1,080 x 2,424 resolution and a 60–120Hz refresh rate (similar to the Pixel 10a). It might also reach around 2,250 nits of HDR content and a 3,350-nit peak. Battery capacity is listed at a minimum of 4,870 mAh, which might be marketed as 4,900 mAh or 5,000 mAh.
A new front-facing camera sensor with the codename “dokkaebi” has also been mentioned in the leak. Face Unlock is said to be faster and more secure, and to work better in low-light conditions. Four colors are being talked about for now. Two familiar shades, including Obsidian and Olive, and two new colors: Frost and Fog.
