Google, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc., will unveil new Pixel-branded AI-focused devices at an event in New York on August 20th. The lineup is anticipated to feature multiple smartphones and a smartwatch, all integrated with Google’s AI technology. This year’s Pixel devices are expected to be similar to the Pixel 9 series, with enhancements including upgraded processors, refined hardware, and other incremental improvements.
Chris Welch for Bloomberg News:
[T]he lineup expected to include several smartphones and a smartwatch, all powered by the company’s artificial intelligence technology.
Google is likely to unveil four new smartphones — the Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL and Pixel 10 Pro Fold — along with the fourth-generation Pixel Watch.
This year’s batch of Google products are expected to closely resemble the Pixel 9 series, but with upgraded processors, slightly refined hardware and other iterative upgrades. Additionally, Google’s in-house Tensor G5 processor, which will power the entire Pixel 10 lineup, is believed to be fabricated by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., which would mark a major supplier shift for Google after years of using Samsung for chip manufacturing.
All of the phones will run Android 16 and are set to feature a redesigned, bolder user experience that Google revealed in May at its annual developer conference.
