Today we're looking at a wide variety of features released for the Google Pixel 4. One of the most interesting camera features revealed for the Google Pixel 4 will also be available for the Google Pixel 3 and Google Pixel 3a. That also includes the Google Pixel 3 XL - and it has a whole lot to do with the devices' already-active Night Sight feature.
Google has offered a mesh router called Google WiFi since 2016, but today we're seeing the successor to that system. During its Pixel 4 event today, Google got up on stage and announced Nest WiFi, a new mesh router that improves on the Google WiFi formula. For starters, Google says that Nest WiFi is more capable than Google WiFi, boasting as much as twice the speed and 25% better coverage.
Today Google revealed the Pixel 4 and the Pixel 4 XL officially. These devices have been rumored for months, and today are getting their first full official unveiling. These devices will be available in black, white, and orange, with accent colors of white and orange - and all three colors have black around their borders. Like they're all panda bears getting ready for slightly-muted-orange halloween.
There's a new Google Nest Mini, and while it may not look any different, Google promises its smallest and most affordable smart speaker should be louder, smarter, and more flexible. The new second-generation Mini looks just like its predecessor, a compact, circular blob that's topped with a speaker grille made from recycled plastic bottles.
The Pixel 4 may be the main attraction at today's Google event, but before we get to that, Google pulled the veil back on a new Pixelbook. Dubbed the Pixelbook Go, this new Chromebook has seemingly been designed with portability in mind - Google says that the entire package is 13mm thick, with a total weight that clocks in at "barely two pounds."
Today the Nest Aware and Nest Aware Plus system was revealed - or re-revealed, depending on how you look at it - for smart home systems. This is Google's full home security system coverage subscription service for Google Home / Google Nest products. Google also revealed the Nest Mini today for $49 USD - making it pretty much a new Google Home Mini with a slightly different hardware package - just a TINY bit different.
Google has officially announced the new Pixel Buds, the latest generation of its fully wireless headphones. Unlike the first-generation Pixel Buds, the much-derided cord that ran between the two earbuds has been removed completely, with each side now completely untethered.
Google has spent the better part of 2019 talking about its incoming game streaming platform, Stadia. All the while, the company has been telling us that it's targeting a November release date for the service, never getting any more specific than that. Today, that all changed, as Google finally gave Stadia a release date.
Beats' most important headphones are getting a huge update, with the new Beats Solos Pro adding active noise cancellation to the best-selling wireless headphones. The new on-ear cans tap Apple's H1 chip for easier Bluetooth pairing, but Beats has added its own spin on how its Pure Adaptive Noise Cancelling (Pure ANC) system interacts with the outside world.
After a wait that stretched on for more than a day, Fortnite is back, and it's starting an entirely new chapter with its return. As leaks suggested before the end of Season X, Fortnite Chapter 2 is kicking off with an entirely new map for players to battle on, with new activities to participate in and new ways to fight. If Fortnite was starting to seem a little stale during Season X, the beginning of Chapter 2 might help with that.
It's always good when manufacturers offer freebies in exchange for ordering their products early. It might not be so good, however, when that freebie is another phone that is more than half the price of the one being sold. That is the rather tempting yet also odd prospect in the Motorola One Action pre-order because, if you take action now (pun intended), you can grab a Moto G6 for free for a limited time only.
Researchers have been working for more than ten years to create an artificial retina that might help the blind see again. Researchers from Stanford University may have found a solution to one of the most limiting issues with designing an artificial retina that can be implanted into the eye - heat. An artificial retina has a very small computer chip inside that has metal electrodes sticking out of it.
