ThePixel 5 is anAndroidsmartphone designed, developed, and marketed byGoogle as part of theGoogle Pixel product line. It serves as the successor to thePixel 4. It was officially announced on September 30, 2020 at the "Launch Night In" event alongside thePixel 4a (5G) and released in the United States on October 29, 2020.[6] It is the first flagship smartphone in the Pixel line-up not to feature an XL version.[7] On October 19, 2021, it was succeeded by thePixel 6 andPixel 6 Pro.
The Pixel 5 is constructed using a "100% recycled aluminum enclosure" andGorilla Glass 6 for the screen. The device is available in Just Black and Sorta Sage colors, both of which have a matte finish. The housing has a thick coating of plastic, while the power button is anodized with a metallic finish. The bottom of the device has aUSB-C connector, which is used for charging and audio output. It has stereo speakers, one of which is an under display unit, with the other speaker located to the right of the USB-C port. The back houses a capacitive fingerprint reader, which had been removed on the Pixel 4.[4][8]
The Pixel 5 uses the mid-rangeQualcomm Snapdragon 765G system-on-chip (consisting of eightKryo 475 cores, anAdreno 620 GPU and aHexagon 696 DSP), with 8 GB ofLPDDR4X RAM and 128 GB of non-expandableUFS 2.1 internal storage. The Snapdragon 765G allows for standard 5G connectivity; both "sub-6" andmillimeter-wave (mmWave) networks are supported.[4][9]
The Pixel 5 has a 4080 mAh battery, a significant increase over its predecessor's 2800 mAh battery.[4] It is capable of fast-charging at up to 18 W, and supportsQiwireless charging as well as reverse wireless charging. This is enabled through a cutout in the back panel for the wireless charging coil, covered by bio-resin.[10] It retains the water protection rating ofIP68 underIEC standard 60529. The Pixel 4's Motion Sense capabilities andfacial recognition have been omitted, as well as Active Edge and Pixel Neural Core.[11]
The Pixel 5 features a 6-inch (152 mm)1080pOLED display withHDR10+ support, that operates at arefresh rate of up to 90Hz; it dynamically adjusts depending on content to preserve battery life.[4] The display has a 19.5:9aspect ratio, and adopts a design aesthetic similar to the Pixel 4a, with slim uniform bezels and a circular cutout in the upper left-hand corner for the front-facing camera.[12]
The Pixel 5 includes dual rear-facing cameras located within a raised square module. While the wide camera is unchanged, it includes an ultrawide lens replacing the Pixel 4's telephoto lens. The wide 28 mm 77° f/1.7 lens has the Sony Exmor IMX363 12.2 MP sensor, while the ultrawide 107° f/2.2 lens has a 16 MP sensor; both sensors are shared with the Pixel 4a (5G).[13] The front-facing camera uses an 8 MP sensor. Along with the Pixel 4a (5G), it is the first Pixel phone capable of recording 4K@60fps, as previous Pixel phones were limited to 30 fps.[4] Although it lacks Pixel Neural Core, Pixel Visual Core has been reworked to support Live HDR+ and Dual Exposure features present on the Pixel 4. Additional software improvements include a new Portrait Light mode, Portrait Mode for Night Sight, a Cinematic Pan setting and HDR+ withexposure bracketing.
The Pixel 5 shipped withAndroid 11 and version 8.0 of theGoogle Camera app at launch, with features such as Call Screen and a Personal Safety app. A new feature introduced concurrently on the Pixel 4a (5G) is Extreme Battery Saver, which stops background app processing and only lets essential apps run. It will be available on older Pixel models as a part of a future software update. It is expected to receive 3 years of major OS upgrades, with support extending until 2023.
The Pixel 5 is the last Pixel phone to ship with unlimited storage in high definition onGoogle Photos, with subsequent phones (beginning with thePixel 5a andPixel 6 series) no longer including this offer.[14]
