The Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro have now turned up on the FCC's database, just over a month before their official launches alongside the Pixel Watch 2. So far, the FCC has outlined five model number variants, all without rumoured Wi-Fi 7 connectivity.

So according to an FCC filing the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro will support Wi-Fi 6E but not the newer Wi-Fi 7.

For a comparison, you can get a max speed of 9.6 Gb/s with Wi-Fi 6E, while Wi-Fi 7 can reach a speed of 46 Gb/s.

    A53 is used for low-power and low-cost applications… It’s a “good enough” CPU that has really good performance/area.

    Perfect performance counters for OoO is really hard.

    OoO also makes BP more useful. An OoO processor without BP isn’t very useful because there aren’t that many instructions between branches… So, generally, modern OoO processors dedicate far more resources to BP.
