Samsung Display sued on Pixel 7 Pro stands for 20% of the total costs, while the 5nm EUV process for Tensor G2 cost 7%. There are several other components including the ISOCELL GN1 Camera Sensor, 5x Periscope Zoom Sensor, and selfie sensor. Apart from these, the Micron RAM, SK Hynix 128GB NAND Flash Modules, Sunwoda Eltronic 5000 mAh battery, NXP Quick Charging IC, and much more.
