This is the most exciting Pixel 6 rumor of 2021 so far

[Chris Smith]

The Pixel 5 is a fine 5G phone, but it can't compete with flagships from Samsung or Apple. It features decent specs, an improved design over the disappointing Pixel 4, and an ever-reliable camera, all for a great price in a year hit by massive health and economic crises. But that didn’t change the fact that the Pixel 5 was also a massive disappointment for many people who wanted a variant of the phone that could at least compete against the iPhone 11 when it comes to performance, if not the iPhone 12. The Pixel 5 wasn’t that.

But reports last year also gave Pixel fans reasons for hope. Google supposedly chose the Snapdragon 765 platform for the Pixel 5 to cut costs, but the company was already developing its own custom processor. Google would, thus, follow in Apple and Samsung’s footsteps. Google partnered with Samsung to manufacture its processors, which are codenamed Whitechapel, according to a report from April 2020 that claimed the custom chip would be ready in time for 2021 products. This report prompted speculation that the Pixel 6 would feature Google’s own silicon, and we now have the first rumor that indicates the Pixel 6 will have a processor made by Google.
