Google Announces New Pixel Phone & More

Google has announced a new line of hardware that includes a company-branded mobile phone, an updated 4K-capable version of its Chromecast device, a virtual reality headset, and more.

Under the tagline “Made By Google,” the company announced a total of six different products, including the Pixel smartphone, the Google Home entertainment system, the Chromecast Ultra, the Daydream View, Google WiFi, and Google Assistant.

Regarding the Pixel phone, the Google blog says, “With Pixel, we obsessed over every detail, from the industrial design to the user experience. We carefully sculpted the surfaces of the phone, and rounded the edges to make it easy to grip.

“We used 2.5D Corning® Gorilla® Glass 4 on the front display and back glass to accent the aerospace grade aluminum body. The glass on the back also features Pixel Imprint, our fingerprint sensor, which is placed on the back of the phone where your finger expects it.”

“You can even swipe it to access your notifications. And no matter what you’re using your phone for, you’ll need a battery that lasts all day and charges fast — up to seven hours in 15 minutes.

“The Pixel camera is not only the best smartphone camera we’ve ever made, it’s the highest rated smartphone camera anyone has ever made. Our DxOMark Mobile score of 89 is a great example of what’s possible when great hardware meets great software.

“Pixel puts cutting-edge computational photography in an ultra-fast and easy-to-use camera.”
