The Pixel 7 Pro benchmark reveals details about the Google Tensor G2.
Kuba Wojciechowski revealed some details that became known from the Geekbench test of the dogfood version of the Pixel 7 Pro.
• Tensor G2 will use the same 2xCortex-X1 + 2xCortex-A76 + 4xCortex-A55 Cores, but with little bit higher frequencies.
• The process was changed to 4LPE (4nm), which will give an increase in performance (~10%), more thermal headroom and efficiency at high frequencies.
• Tensor G2 uses Mali-G710 GPU (compared to G78 in first gen). Arm promises 20% performance improvement with 20% power reduction, and a huge 35% ML speedup.
• G2 may include an improved TPU, codenamed Jaineiro.
• Device comes with S5300 modem from Samsung, which should enable NR Rel. 16 features as well as improve peak speeds and stability.
Miscellaneous:
• Build number: TD1A.220609.002
• The device runs kernel version 5.10, but Google may update it before the release.

Images of Google cases for the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro have appeared online.
Compared to last year, the cases are now not translucent, but just solid color. Also, the power and volume buttons are made of hard material - glossy plastic or shiny metal - rather than soft rubber. And the Google logo appears to now be made of a reflective material.
Pixel 7 cases will be available in three colors: Lemongrass (yellow-green), Obsidian (black) and Chalk (light gray). And cases for the Pixel 7 Pro are available in Hazel (dark green), and also Obsidian and Chalk.
The monochrome coloration of these cases is supposed to solve the problem of yellowing, but that remains to be seen.

Google has finally officially revealed the front of the Pixel 7 Pro.
Google has published an image where we can see the front and back of the Pixel 7 Pro. It appeared on the "Pixel Superfans" Facebook page. The group itself is private, but this image was posted as a public cover (not anymore). If you look closely, it appears that the display edges are slightly less curved than the previous generation. (Also the display was previously shown in this video).
In addition, Twitter users SnoopyTech and Badmax have posted images that appear to be screenshots from promotional materials. This may be the first look at the future wallpaper in the seventh line of flagships.
