The launch of Google's Pixel 8 Pro is still months away, but images possibly showing a prototype of the unreleased phone leaked recently. The images first surfaced on Reddit, and the first thing we noticed is how similar the supposed new Google Pixel 8 Pro looks to the 7 Pro. The one exception, of course, is the new infrared sensor that everyone is talking about (via Neowin).
The infrared sensor is an interesting thing, but my question is, why is Google adding an infrared temperature sensor to a phone? It would have been a highly sought-after feature in previous years, but it's slightly more head-scratching in 2023.
