All kinds of news
Google begins with energy and celebrating that 2023 is a great year for Google, given that it celebrates the entity’s 25th anniversary, a year of international innovation and great advances. Of course, among the big news that Google talks about, AI is of special interest, a market in which they have been focusing in recent months. It is something they have been talking about for years and for which they have prepared thoroughly. Therefore, they talk about how the new Pixels are going to be closely related to artificial intelligence.
The company celebrates that Pixel is the fastest growing brand in the smartphone market worldwide. This is something they will continue to support through hardware, software and the use of the latest technology, such as Google DeepMind.
Google began the event by commenting on the new Pixels Buds Pro, which stand out for the great clarity they provide in communications, helping to make it possible to listen in any type of situation in a completely crystalline way. In addition, latency is reduced by 50%, a type of achievement that video game lovers will love. But Google’s news does not stop there, the introduction of the Dual Screen Interpreter Mode has been announced, with which the company’s mobile phones will allow translating in a really efficient, intuitive way with support for more than 45 languages.
Another novelty of the Pixels Buds Pro is being able to start conversations without having to remove the headphones from your ears. To do this, the AI ​​will detect that you start a conversation and will take care of activating the Ambient Sound mode to help you hear the call better. It will not be the only way in which headphones will help us be more satisfied with their use, since new hearing health recording technology is also incorporated. With it we will keep track of our way of listening and we will receive notifications when the system thinks we should lower the volume to take care of our ears.
Pixel Watch 2
We begin with one of the highlights of the event with the presentation of the Google Pixel Watch 2, which has improved many of its features and functions, incorporating a quad-core processor and a 24-hour use capacity with a 12-hour charge that takes recovers in 30 minutes. The company places special emphasis on new functions and ease of use of applications, as well as the presence of Safety Check, with which users can feel safer when they are returning home.
In addition, the Pixel Watch 2 incorporates artificial intelligence algorithms, three new sensors and improvements to those already present, providing better performance and more efficiency. Among other things, heart rate recording has been improved more accurately and in a greater number of situations and activities. New coach functions and the Body Response system have also been incorporated so that it can detect changes in your mood and so you can have a better record of your day to day life.
Made with recycled aluminum, this new smartwatch model hits the ground running with a more durable structure and compatibility with previous Pixel Watch straps, an aspect that will delight users who are already using previous models. In addition, the Wear OS 4 operating system incorporates dynamic use of apps such as Gmail or Calendar. No less relevant will be the use of the Fitbit app, redesigned and with many more functions to take advantage of so that we can stay in shape and enjoy a healthier life. Of course, AI has been incorporated to become a virtual coach that helps us feel better. For example, it will cross-reference data of different styles and we will be able to ask the artificial intelligence why we have noticed that training in the last few hours has been more complicated. You can see this below in the example that Google has shown.
These functions will be available with priority access for Pixel terminal users, and it is expected to become a notable change in the lives of users. The Pixel Watch 2 will launch at a price starting at $349. It can be pre-ordered now and will be released next week. Each of these watches includes a six-month Premium subscription to Fitbit. They also recommend taking a look at the Fitbit Charge 6 due to its compatibility with some of Google’s main tools, such as Google Maps.
Then it was time for the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro, the highlights of the presentation. Google has, once again, revolutionized the smartphone market with the introduction of both models, designed in a stylized and elegant way and with new colors to cause a sensation among users.
