Hey guys!

It's almost time again for the latest and greatest iterations of Pixel devices, where Google will show off their newest hardware and software upgrades to the masses.

The event will debut on October 4th at 10 AM EST (https://dateful.com/convert/est-edt-eastern-time?t=10am&d=2023-10-04), showcasing what's to be the Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, and likely the Pixel Watch 2.

Rumors indicate signs pointing to a new Tensor chip in the Pixel devices, temperature sensors, Magic Audio removal features for video clips, and even a Qualcomm-based chip in the Pixel Watch 2.

Feel free to watch the event and sign up to be notified when it's live, at the following YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxlaUCJZ27E

See you all soon!

You're likely right, this specs sheet (https://nitter.net/Za_Raczke/status/1706191603717574669) also seems to confirm it:

no GN2 = no buy from me

especially with the price bump

I wonder what OnePlus is cooking up next...

On the other hand, everyone was so sure they would put in the GN2 because of the Staggered HDR in the code. So what's up with that now?

7 Years of android updates? I guess the rest of us previous pixel owners can go eff ourselves

We're starting to feel what the pre-P6 owners felt when the 5 years of updates were first announced 😅
