The Google Store has begun teasing something “Minty Fresh” for the Pixel 8 to be released next week.

If it's for the base Pixel 8, I'm gonna be annoyed! I wanted a bright and fun color or even just white, but settled for the Hazel color as it seemed more interesting than black, and Rose doesn't really fit my style. I'd have loved a mint color!
In a new post shared on X/Twitter by Made by Google, as well as a related page on the Google Store, the company is teasing something for the Pixel 8 series. The main graphic consists of a teal/mint shade of paint being sprayed over a promotional image of the Pixel 8 Pro. The teaser page includes a countdown to January 25 at midnight PT.
In all likelihood, Google is releasing a new colorway for the Pixel 8 series next week. The company’s social media post includes a sequence of binary that translates to “Minty Fresh,” which may be the official name for the Pixel 8 Pro’s new color. Notably, nothing yet indicates whether this new shade will be available on both phones in the series or just the Pixel 8 Pro.
The paint added to the graphic reads “itsaliving,” the name of an artist who Google is hosting to paint a mural in Downtown New York City on January 25 at 11 a.m. ET. The event is available to be attended either in person or via a livestream.
This wouldn’t be the first time that Google has introduced an additional style for an existing Pixel device. For the Pixel 4a, the company followed up the original black shade with a soft Barely Blue option. More recently, the Pixel Fold gained a Hip Hop 50 edition, though it was only available to influencers and contest winners.
