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.

    Name a console that has WiFi 7 compatibility. It’s none.

    PS5 has WiFi 6, not even 6E. Xbox Series X has WiFi 5.

    Both have only been around for 2 years and have another 5-6 left before a new gen is released.

    The phone having WiFi 7 is irrelevant if nothing else you have has it.
