In the last few months, we've seen Samsung launch the newest Galaxy foldables and Apple unveil its iPhone 15 series. Now, it is Google's turn. The Mountain View-based tech giant has announced its Made by Google 2023 event which is scheduled to take place in New York on Wednesday, October 4. While Google has already given us a sneak peek at the upcoming Pixel 8 devices, several other products could also be on the way.
From Google Pixel 8 to Pixel Watch 2, check out everything that could be announced at the Made by Google 2023 event on October 4.
According to reports, the Pixel 8 is expected to feature a 6.17-inch FHD display whereas the Pixel 8 Pro may get a 6.7-inch QHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, both the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are speculated to be powered by the in-house Tensor G3 chipset. This chipset is reported to boast a new 9-core CPU layout, promising impressive AI capabilities. The Pixel 8 Pro is expected to feature a triple-rear camera setup, while, the Pixel 8 may opt for a dual-rear camera setup - both housed within the distinct visor-shaped module. The Pro model could feature a body temperature sensor, as per the rumours. Both smartphones are expected to get a $100 price hike this year, meaning that the Pixel 8 could start at $699, and the Pixel 8 Pro at $899.
According to a 91mobiles report, tipster Kamila Wojciechowska revealed that the Pixel Watch 2 may feature a 1.2-inch OLED display with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. It could get new health features adopted from other fitness trackers such as Fitbit's stress management system and multi-path heart rate sensor, along with the electrodermal activity sensor. Additionally, it could get Pace Training, 7 workouts, Emergency Sharing, and more.
While Google isn't expected to announce any new buds, it could introduce new colours of the Pixel Buds Pro. A teaser shared by Google hinted at a new Porcelain colour of the Buds Pro. On the other hand, a separate report claimed that another Sky Blue colour could be on the way.
Do note that this information is based on unofficial reports and should be taken with a pinch of salt. Only official confirmation from Google will reveal actual details about the Pixel devices, which is expected to be at the Made by Google 2023 event on October 4.

Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2 launched on PS5 this week, starting a new chapter in one of PlayStation’s flagship series. The importance of the game for the console cannot be understated, as it is one of the biggest current-gen PlayStation exclusives to date. A recent Bloomberg report suggests that Peter and Miles’ latest adventure could be the key to the kind of PS5 sales growth Sony is looking for.
There’s a movie, hiding in the recesses of Tubi, Roku Channel, and other ad-supported streaming services, that feels like watching a waking nightmare. It’s an indescribable movie, not really existing in any particular genre. It’s a horror movie, a drama, an arthouse film, and a work of grounded surrealism.
You all know that making a video game takes a lot of work, right? Well, in some cases, the art has to not just be worked on but put through many phases. Why? Because when you’re dealing with certain styles or properties, there are expectations about what places and characters can and should look like. So, you must work your way through multiple concepts to get things to look just right. For example, at New York Comic Con over the week, Marvel and Dark Horse announced The Art of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, giving fans a glimpse of how the game’s visuals came together.
The Owl House may be officially over, but the love for the show — from both fans and the people behind it — lives on. At this year’s New York Comic Con, Sarah-Nicole Robles, the voice of plucky human Luz; Cissy Jones, the voice behind stern witch Lilith; and Avi Roque, who voices secret rebel bard Raine Whispers got together to discuss their time on the show.
Happy Friday, Polygon readers!
At today’s Metropolis All-Stars panel at New York Comic Con 2023, DC Comics revealed a different future for the Man of Steel than many fans might have expected.

The creepy home invasion horror movie The Strangers has become a bit of a cult classic since its release in 2008. While the series did garner a 2018 sequel, The Strangers: Prey By Night, it never quite spawned the franchise you might expect from a hit horror movie. But director Renny Harlin (Die Hard 2, Exorcist: The Beginning) and Lionsgate are here to fix that with a trilogy of new Strangers movies inspired by the originals.
New York Comic Con is back for another year, which means panels, cosplay, art, celebrities, and possibly a few announcements of new projects or release dates. Once again, NYCC plans to stream many of its biggest and most exciting panels this year, meaning that you can catch all the comic con action even if you’re nowhere near New York.
