Pixel 9 Phones Are Coming - Sept 4
As I have discussed on radio the new Pixel 9 phones will be released Sept 4 here in Australia and I am very excited for the release of these phones.
Introducing the New Pixel 9 Lineup and Pixel Watch 3
The new Pixel 9 series includes three models: the base Pixel 9 with a 6.3-inch display, the Pixel 9 Pro XL boasting a 6.8-inch screen, and a new, more compact Pixel 9 Pro option also measuring 6.3 inches. These devices promise improved battery life and a new satellite SOS feature for emergencies.
In addition to these, Google has introduced the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. This innovative device features a 6.3-inch display on the outside and an expansive 8-inch display on the inside, offering a versatile experience for users.
Here’s a quick look at the pricing:
Pixel 9: Starting at $1349
Pixel 9 Pro: Starting at $1699
Pixel 9 Pro Fold: Starting at $2699
Plus I can say that Google do the best job of stopping spam calls and texts
New AI-Powered Apps and Features
The Pixel 9 lineup comes with two new AI applications:
Pixel Screenshots: This app uses on-device AI to help you search for information within your saved screenshots.
Pixel Studio: A text-to-image generator that allows for creative expression.
Google has also enhanced the camera experience with new AI image editing tools. The “Add Me” feature lets you insert someone into a group photo by seamlessly stitching two scenes together. Additionally, the Magic Editor in Google Photos now uses generative AI to replace entire sections of a photo, such as the sky, for a more polished look.
The New Pixel Watch 3
Google’s Pixel Watch 3 is also making waves with its new features. Available in a larger 45mm option alongside the existing 41mm model, the watch now has thinner bezels and a brighter display that can reach up to 2,000 nits. It also comes packed with new fitness features.
One of the standout features of the Pixel Watch 3 is its ability to detect if the wearer’s pulse has stopped. If the wearer doesn’t respond to a prompt to check in and the watch doesn’t sense any movement, it can automatically call emergency services.
The Pixel Watch 3 starts at $579.
Gemini Live: A New Voice Chat Experience
Lastly, Google is rolling out Gemini Live to Gemini Advanced subscribers. This new voice chat option allows you to ask Google’s AI assistant questions out loud and receive responses in your choice of 10 different voices. Gemini Live supports conversational interactions, and you can even interrupt it mid-sentence for a more natural experience.
