Alongside the Pixel 7, 7 Pro, and Pixel Watch, Google has also announced the Pixel Tablet. However, it is coming sometime in 2023. The device has a large screen with noticeable but proportional bezels, an aluminium body with "premium" and "smooth" coating. There is a single camera on the front and back. The device charges wirelessly by attaching magnetically to a docking-cum-speaker unit. It runs on Android with Material UI. And as for features, you get everything - video calling, photo editing, Assistant, Chrome and so on.
The Pixel Watch costs $349.99 for the standard Bluetooth version and $399.99 for the Bluetooth+LTE model. Buyers get six months of Fitbit Premium and three months of YouTube Music Premium. The company is yet to reveal the pricing and availability of the smartwatch in India.
The Pixel 7 and 7 Pro have also launched in India. The vanilla model costs Rs. 59,999 for the 8GB/128GB version while the Pro model is priced at Rs. 84,999 for the 12GB/128GB variant. Pre-orders are now live via Flipkart and the devices will become available from October 13 onward.
In the US, the Pixel 7 starts at $599 while the Pro variant will set you back by $899.
The Pixel 7 and 7 Pro offer improved exposure and brightness for darker skin tones with NightSight. The low-light photos can be captured twice as fast. There is also a nifty Unblur feature that sharpens images even if they were captured from a non Pixel 7 device. However, the features is available through Google Photos only on Pixel 7 and 7 Pro. The new handsets also boast of improved Super Res Zoom and up to 30x Zoom stabilization.
With Pixel 7 series, Google is introducing auto filtering of spam calls with Call Screen. You can hear a caller better if they're in a noisy place with Clear Calling feature. Also, you will see business menu options before they're spoken with Direct My Call.
The Pixel 7 and 7 Pro have a top-centered punch-hole cut-out and an in-screen fingerprint scanner. They sport a dual-tone rear design with a full-width camera visor with distinct cut-outs for the lenses. The Pixel 7 sports a 6.3-inch Full-HD+ AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. The Pro model flaunts a 6.7-inch QHD+ AMOLED screen with a 10-120Hz variable refresh rate.
Google's latest Pixel 7 and 7 Pro will come with a built-in VPN. While the VPN will help you keep your browsing and online activity private, it remains to be seen how much information Google itself will capture.
The Pixel Watch is here with a circular body and a physical crown. It doesn't have external lugs. Instead, the straps attach internally—similar to how a camera lens pairs to the body. Neat! The smartwatch is 50m water resistant, has a stainless steel case, and Gorilla Glass protection.
Google has announced its next-generation Tensor G2 chipset. It powers the latest Pixel 7 and 7 Pro smartphones. But surprisingly, the company has made a couple of references to a tablet. Perhaps, we could hear more about a Pixel Tablet.
