In a big win for India, another tech major, after Apple, has agreed to manufacture their top-end smartphones locally here. Google had recently launched its new Pixel 8 series globally and it has been announced that the phone will be manufactured in India soon. This year, the smartphone comes with various new features and camera upgrades. This was revealed today during the Google event in Pragati Maidan, Delhi. Google also indicated that it was investing in India's manufacturing sector by building a plant to produce their latest Pixel smartphones.

In an unexpected twist, Google has removed the restrictions it had allegedly placed on the Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro devices. Now, users can freely install popular benchmarking apps like Geekbench and 3D Mark. This move, which initially baffled tech enthusiasts, was implemented during the review embargo period for the Pixel 8 series phones prior to their official release. The peculiar decision hindered them from conducting comprehensive tests on Google's claims about the Tensor G3 chip powering the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro devices, unless they were well-versed in manually sideloading the apps.

Yesterday, October 4, the Google Pixel 8 series was unveiled at the Made by Google event.

But one area where the Pixel phones really surprised everyone was the level of AI integration. The features were simply mindblowing!

The company also announced the Pixel Watch 2, Pixel Buds Pro, and the Android 14. While everyone is gushing about the new smartphone, Google has introduced a new temperature reading capability for the Pixel 8 Pro.

Google's Pixel Watch 2 looks like a promising update to last year's excellent Pixel Watch. It's entering the market alongside another recent big-name wearable, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6, which we awarded an excellent four-star rating to in August. We're in the process of testing the new Pixel Watch now, but let's see how the two smartwatches compare when it comes to design, features, price, and more.

The Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are here, and they face stiff competition from Samsung, particularly the Galaxy S23 series. Google and Samsung phones are usually top of mind when it comes to choosing an Android device, but which is the better option? Full reviews of the Google Pixel 8 and 8 Pro are coming soon, but until then, let's break down the specs to make sure you know what you're getting into.

It’s another year, which means another line-up of Pixel phones. Last year, I think Google really went conservative on the various phone features and released a phone that wasn’t willing – and rightfully so in my opinion – to compete with the biggest and best on the market. This year we are seeing a slight price increase on both phones, but also a host of brand new features. Let’s take a look at what Google is promising with the Google Pixel 8 and the Google Pixel 8 Pro!

After months of anticipation, Google finally took the wraps off its Pixel 8 series at the Made by Google 2023 event on Wednesday, October 4. It is Google's latest entry into the smartphone race, and perhaps a late one, with the aim to offer the best smartphone in the market - a race that is joined by several competing brands such as Apple with its iPhone 15, and Samsung with its Galaxy S23 series.

With Apple and Samsung already launching their flagship devices earlier this year, all the eyes were on Google, and it has now unveiled its latest flagship smartphone, the Pixel 8 series at the Made by Google 2023 event. The Pixel 8 is the lower-end version in the new flagship Pixel lineup which also includes the Pixel 8 Pro, and goes head to head against the base flagship smartphones in the market, such as Apple's iPhone 15 and Samsung's Galaxy S23. It falls under a similar price bracket as the new iPhone 15, therefore, comparisons will surely be made.
