Will ceramics become the main material for the new generation of Pixels? | mobilenet.cz | TechBuzz

The latest generation of Pixels from Google relies on a glass back, but in the past this was not always the case, and for example the Google Pixel 5 used a metal back with a silicone surface treatment. We could expect an interesting solution in the future as well, because according to the Digital Chat Station profile on the Weibo network, Google wants to use ceramics as the primary material for the production of its phones in the future.

Ceramics used in smartphones (for example Xiaomi Mi MIX 3) or watches (Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro 43mm) enjoy color stability and also higher hardness compared to protective glasses, on the other hand, they are also more fragile. Even the slightest fall of an unprotected smartphone can mean an unsightly crack, the repair of which will be hellishly expensive.

The same source then came with information that the upcoming flagship from Google should also use a second-generation Tensor chip, a 2K display and a Sony IMX787 photosensor.
