9to5Google further corroborates Mishaal's information. The publication has viewed some documentation about the matter and confirms that Google is indeed bringing testing ultra-wideband functionality on Android 12. Given that no piece of Google hardware supports the technology, it stands to reason that the Pixel 6 will ship with a UWB chip. Other Google hardware such as smart speakers could use the technology, too. A UWB chip can serve multiple purposes and isn't just restricted to object trackers. Theoretically, it is also possible to use it for high-speed data transfer, but no OEM has attempted it so far.
Other expected Google Pixel 6 specs include an under-display selfie camera. We don't know a whole lot more about the smartphone, but we can expect it to ship with a high-refresh-rate AMOLED screen, two (or three) camera sensors, and 5G. Google has a lot riding on the Pixel 6, as its predecessor was a phenomenal failure. Will the Google Pixel 6 be able to right its antecedent's wrongs and recapture some market share in the high-end smartphone market? Only time will tell.
