Not only is the Google Pixel 5 coming soon, but we have learned of a cool new feature that Google will be including

A deeper dive into Google's latest FCC filing reveals not only that the Pixel 5 is coming soon, but also hints that it will feature reverse wireless charging

The Pixel 5 is not specifically named on the list, but the phones here are definitely made by Google, but are hidden under codenames: A4R GD1YQ, GTT9Q, G6QU3, and G5NZ6 Based on the rumors so far, it is not a logical leap to wonder what kind of phone Google would let the FCC test

And the FCC list details wireless power charging, or reverse wireless charging as it is commonly known

Previous Pixel phones have included interesting features such as squeezable sides and radar sensors, but this new charging feature may actually be a quiet killer feature for the Pixel 5 Such charging would be useful if you have earbuds with wireless charging, such as Google's own Pixel Buds 2, and need to charge them while commuting [For example, Samsung's Galaxy Note 20 series and Galaxy S20 series have it

However, the Pixel 5 will be released at the same time as the iPhone 12, but the iPhone 12 is rumored not to have reverse wireless charging, and the more premium iPhone 12 Pro model will not have such a feature Apple also sells wireless charging accessories like the Apple Watch 5 and AirPods, so it is clearly at a hardware disadvantage compared to Google

Other key specs rumored are the Pixel 5's 8GB RAM, 4,000 mAh battery, and 6-inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate;

As for 5G, two versions will only support sub-6GHz bands, while another two support both sub-6GHz and mmWave

In addition, Google's newly filed documents listed a model number for what must be the Pixel 4a 5G due to its similarity to the Pixel 4a The differences are the Snapdragon 765G, a better 5G-capable processor, and a second rear camera for ultra-wide angle photography

Unfortunately for some users, the Pixel 4a 5G only supports sub-6GHz 5G, not the mmWave standard used by carriers like Verizon

The only official indication from Google regarding a release date for the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a 5G is that it will be this fall Normally we see the new Pixel phones at the Made by Google event in September, but this may be delayed after all due to the lockdown disruption seen this year But if the FCC gets its hands on the final handset, that will definitely happen soon
