    Temperature sensor? Is this a typo?

    Leaks suggest that it would be a MLX90632 sensor, which Melexis describes as “a miniature SMD thermometer IC for accurate non-contact temperature measurement, especially in thermally dynamic environments and when available space is limited”.

    I have absolutely no idea either why Google would add a thermometer to its phones, it’s definitely a senseless addition and it doesn’t help that the MSRP for the Pixel 8 got a $100 bump vs the Pixel 7.
