Google Pixel 12 Codenames Rumored With Same Four-Phone Lineup

Hardware development happens years in advance, so it’s no surprise that codenames for what should be the Google Pixel 12 series have already leaked.

According to Mystic Leaks today, these are the alleged codenames for the Pixel 12 and what models they correspond to:

• Pixel 12 – Galago
• Pixel 12 Pro – Sasquatch
• Pixel 12 Pro XL – Silverback
• Pixel 12 Pro Fold – Capuchin

Google’s 2027 phones are all primates (though “Sasquatch” or Bigfoot is of course folklore). Given their size, “Silverback” is an appropriate name for Google’s largest phone.

The Pixel 10 lineup has horse-themed codenames, while it’s bears for the Pixel 11 series. 

What’s more notable is that Google is likely sticking to the same phone types. There’s the entry-level device followed by the flagship in two sizes. Finally, you have a foldable. Given that these devices are two years out, naming and release could always change before launch. 

With the small flagship phone, Google has had less than a year of market data, with the Pixel 10 Pro already in development at that point. If there were to be any shifts to the lineup, the Pixel 11 and 12 Pro would be when we start to see changes.
