Google is on the verge of revealing a whole suite of Pixel devices today (that August 13 at the time of writing), in its latest Made by Google event. We expect to see a whole range of tech, with phones leading the charge, but flanked be wearables, and lots of AI features.
We have our Google Pixel 9 event live blog up and running so you can get a blow-by-blow account of the showcase, as well as last-minute leaks and our thoughts on the state of the Pixel family.
Google has already confirmed that the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro Fold, but we strongly suspect that a couple of other phones will make their debut too, as will wearables and headphones. And, in keeping with the theme of 2024, we also predict there’ll be some Gemini AI developments on the cards.
The Google Pixel 9 will almost certainly land on August 13. Google hasn’t specifically confirmed this phone yet, but it has said we’ll see the Pixel 9 Pro, so it would be very strange if we didn’t also get the base Pixel 9.
In fact, it would be bordering on ridiculous if it didn’t show up, given how many leaks we’ve had for it in recent weeks. Based on those rumors, we expect the Pixel 9 to have a 6.24-inch OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, a Tensor G4 chipset, 12GB of RAM, a dual-lens camera, and a 4,558mAh battery.
The Google Pixel 9 Pro has been confirmed by Google as being in attendance on August 13, and the company has even shared a partial image of it, which you can see above. We can see from this that it has a redesigned camera block, as had widely been rumored.
Google hasn’t said much about the Pixel 9 Pro, but leaks point to it having a roughly 6.3-inch screen, which would make it quite a lot smaller than its 6.7in predecessor.
It will also apparently have a triple-lens camera (including wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto cameras), and will almost certainly be powered by a new Tensor G4 chipset.
Leaks suggest it will additionally have 16GB of RAM – up from 12GB in the Pixel 8 Pro – and a minimum battery capacity of 4,558mAh.
