    Is this not backwards compatible with the 7 or 6, or is this another feature drop down the road?

      Below, I’ve embedded some graphics created by display analyst Dylan Raga that illustrate how Ultra HDR works. Using version 9.1.098 of the Google Camera app extracted from a Pixel 8, I took various Ultra HDR photos in a nearby park. These photos were captured on a Pixel 6 Pro, which surprisingly supports saving photos in Ultra HDR just by sideloading the latest version of Google Camera.

      So maybe. or maybe just pro devices. not sure

        I like the sound of the backwards compatible features but they shouldn’t limit this to only the pro models. That’s unnecessary given the previous chips were identical unlike this new batch

          I know you’re just speculating, but I’m just saying my thoughts in general if this went through.
