Big changes are coming to your . lineup of Pixel devices and there’s AI in everything. Here are the best . announcements from Made by Google 2024.
6.3-inch outer display. When unfolded, it’s got what Google says is the largest display on a phone, you can multitask in Split Screen and enjoy big-screen entertainment on the 80% brighter , 8-inch Super Actua Flex inner display. Pixel 9 Pro Fold is also the thinnest foldable . on the market, so it can better fit into your pocket. It’s water resistant and has a durable , hinge and Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 2 on the outer display and back. And the all-new hinge is made of stainless steel with an aerospace-grade high-strength aluminum alloy cover, so it’ll , hold up fold after fold. It also has a Tensor G4 processor and 16 GB of RAM. When it comes to the , cameras, it’s also got the triple rear camera system with AI built in. There’s 48 MP wide . camera, 10.5 MP ultrawide with Macro Focus, and 10.8 MP 5x telephoto lens. There are also a couple of great new features. First is the made you look feature. You can take a pic , of your kids (or pets!) and their view is of cute animations to keep their attention, , so that they are looking right at the camera, while you’re framing the shot however you like. , Brilliant. There is also Youtube multi-view for streaming live sports. Pixel 9 Pro Fold starts at $1799 and is available in Porcelain and Obsidian. By the way, Satellite SOS is now . available on pixel. They are the first Androids in the US to do this, , and it’s free for the first two years, starting in the US. And with that, believe it , or not, we still aren’t done talking devices. Let’s move on to some wearables, and . we’ll start with the Pixel Buds Pro 2. These were designed using 45 million data points , from ear scans to come up with the optimal shape for maximum comfort. They’ve got a new Tensor A1 Chip, and they are also 27% smaller and therefore lighter. They’ve got active noise cancellation that Google says can cancel nearly twice as much noise as before. They’ve improved Clear Calling, and they’ve also got Conversation Detection. So, the use AI to tell you when to start speaking. , Your music gets paused and the earbuds switch to Transparency mode. When the conversation ends, . the music resumes automatically, going back to Active Noise Cancellation without you taking any action. The Pixel Buds Pro 2 are $229. Another wearable that’s getting , an update is the Pixel Watch 3, which is now available in two sizes. There’s a 41mm and a 45mm, with a larger display , size, thanks to smaller bezels. Pixel Watch 3 is fully integrated into the Google ecosystem, so . you can get more done right from your wrist. The Nest display is coming to your watch, with . two-way audio, so you can tell the delivery driver to leave the package at the door. You can . also use your watch as your Google TV remote. And I feel like so much of this . year’s Made By Google was about Gemini on Android. So now let’s touch on . some of those Gemini on Android updates. Your assistant has been . completely rebuilt with Gemini, so you can speak naturally just like .
you would with another person. It can understand your intent, follow your train of thought and complete complex tasks. You can can now bring up Gemini’s overlay on , top of the app you’re using to ask questions about what’s on your screen. For example, you can find specific information about a YouTube video you’re watching. You can . also generate images directly from the overlay and drag and drop them into . apps like Gmail and Google Messages. Gemini Live is also finally here, which I talked about in another video that you can watch by clicking here. It’s safe to say that Gemini Live will change the way you interact with your device. You can pick from different voices now, have natural conversations and tap to pause or interrupt . to redirect the conversation. And of course, when you’re done with the conversation , with Gemini Live you’re going to have the transcript right there where you can pick , up anytime. This is part of Gemini Advanced. But for now let’s focus on a couple , of new features coming to your Pixel. Courtesy of Gemini Nano, weather on your Pixel , is not only going to give you the information you need, but you’ll also have an AI weather . summary. And there is now an all-new screenshots app. This is designed specifically for you to make lists and take screenshots. It will organize all your screenshots and you can ask Gemini to pull up relevant information for you. But there are two new camera editing features , that I’m freaking and geeking out over. First, Magic Editor is wild. Auto Frame will recompose a shot for you. That’s right, it’ll improve the composition of your shot. , You’ll get a few options and the generative AI fills in the blanks for you. Hello, love . this. There’s also Reimagine. With this, you’ll type whatever it is you want to see in your . image in a promt. So, you’ll select what you want to change then make a prompt and it’ll change , it! This is done using Imagen 3. Can you even? Second, there is an all-new feature called , Add Me. This is insane. See for yourself. With Add Me, you’ll snap the first photo, . then you swap with someone in the photo and you sit in the photo and the AR guides . the photo taker to get the right shot, then composes the photo - ie makes a photo , with YOU in it! Even though you weren’t in the original shot. What? This is THE PERFECT travel . photo editing feature if I’ve ever seen one. We would be here all day if we talked about every single announcement, so these are just my faves! So, I’m linking to the full Made By Google video for you, should you want to rewatch it in all its glory. I still . can’t believe my little feet were on Google soil.,
