Pixel 8 leak promises 7 years of OS updates

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The big news is that Google is finally giving its Pixel phones a longer support window.

Google pitches the Pixel phones as the flagship of the Android ecosystem, and now, if this spec sheet pans out, the OS maker is finally giving them an update plan to match.

That would comfortably lead all major manufacturers, leaving only Google and Fairphone at the top of the charts.

The specs for the Pixel 8 Pro include something called a "Super Actua" display, which the marketing docs say will work "even in direct sunlight."

Manufacturers keep picking this fight with the sun, and while I guess brighter is better, I'm still not confident any phone will put a dent in sunlight.

The Tensor 1 and 2 had CPU clusters headlined by two Arm Cortex X1 CPUs and benchmarked similarly.
