I can't seem to find any definitive sources about the Pixel 5's computational RAW feature.
It's in an article right here on DPR:

This is a also good article:

I'm surprised there aren't more articles written about the Pixel 5 and whether there have been any advancement in its computational RAW technology.
Because Google sort of plateaued. All the top researchers left Google's Pixel department and people are underwhelmed because Google has shipped essentially the same camera hardware since the Pixel 2.
Case in point: I have a Pixel 2. I was blown away with its image quality at the time it was released. But I never found any of the later Pixels compelling enough to upgrade to one of them. I'm forced to replace my Pixel 2 because the battery has started to swell. I didn't want to pay to upgrade to any of the newer Pixels, so I just (this morning) ordered a $100 refurbished Pixel 2 to tide me over. There will be a new Pixel 6 released next fall. I want to wait to see if they finally upgrade the camera hardware.
