Five perplexing Google Pixel 5 facts you might have missed

Google unveiled its Pixel 5 phone Wednesday, and there's a lot to unpack. Right off the bat, it doesn't have the latest Snapdragon processor, it doesn't have a 1440p display, and it dumps the vaunted Soli radar that powered Motion Sense and Face Unlock. But there are a few other tidbits we've learned since the Launch Night in event that you might have missed: One of the reasons why the Pixel phones have such great cameras is because of their tremendous on-device AI abilities. On previous phones, that was due to specialized co-processors that work with the main chip to quickly process AI-related tasks. On the Pixel 2 and Pixel 3, the Pixel Visual Core handled those tasks, while the Pixel 4 introduced the Pixel Neural Core for handling photo processing, live transcriptions, and the new Google Assistant.
