Google has been using several components from Samsung (https://www.sammobile.com/news/google-tensor-g4-chip-samsung-foundry-4nm/) in its Pixel smartphones over the past few years, and it will continue to do so, at least for the camera sensors in the upcoming Pixel 9 series.

It has been revealed that Pixel 9 phones will continue to use Samsung's ISOCELL (https://www.sammobile.com/tag/isocell/) camera sensors.

A new report from Android Authority (https://www.androidauthority.com/exclusive-google-pixel-9-cameras-3460690/) reveals that the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold use Samsung's ISOCELL camera sensors.

The Pixel 9 Pro and the Pixel 9 Pro XL use the same 50MP ISOCELL GNK camera sensor used in the Pixel 9 as their primary cameras. The rest of the cameras used in these phones, including the rear telephoto and ultrawide ones, use Sony's IMX858 50MP sensor. Even the front-facing camera uses the Sony IMX858 sensor with autofocus.

Pixel 9 Pro Fold camera sensors

Google's next-generation foldable phone, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, features a 10MP ISOCELL 3K1 (https://www.sammobile.com/news/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-4-has-a-mixed-bag-of-new-and-old-camera-sensors/) sensor for its front-facing camera.

It also features a 12MP ISOCELL 3LU sensor for the ultrawide camera and a 10.5MP ISOCELL 3J1 sensor for the telephoto camera. The phone's primary rear camera is a 64MP Sony IMX787 sensor.

These new phones will be the first in the Pixel lineup to feature 8K 30fps video recording support. While Pixel 8 series phones also had capable sensors and chips, Google decided not to use those capabilities.
