The Made by Google 2025 event<\/a> is finally happening, notably before Apple\u2019s hardware event<\/a> is expected to take place in September.\u00a0<\/p>\n On Wednesday, the tech giant debuted its Pixel 10 series, a new foldable, the Pixel Watch 4, the second generation of the cost-friendly A-Series earbuds, generative AI capabilities with Gemini, and more. <\/p>\n Google already dropped several AI-related updates at its developer conference<\/a> in May, but the company demonstrated more Gemini features<\/a> during the Pixel 10 event. In a recent YouTube video<\/a> promoting the new devices, Google even seemed to poke fun at Apple\u2019s failed promises with Apple Intelligence advancements on the iPhone.\u00a0<\/p>\n Gemini Live received an upgrade this year, so now when you ask questions, you can share your camera, and the assistant can follow along and guide you. For instance, sharing an image of your room with the AI and getting interior design ideas. <\/p>\n Taking photos on the Pixel 10 also got a boost. A new feature called \u201cCamera Coach,\u201d for example, lets Gemini give you real-time tips for taking better photos. The AI is able to see what\u2019s going on and suggest the best angles and lighting for your shot.\u00a0<\/p>\n In addition, there\u2019s a new conversational photo editing tool<\/a>, where you tell Gemini what you want to tweak in a photo, such as increasing the brightness, removing objects, or changing the background.<\/p>\n The standard Pixel 10 phone underwent significant changes, particularly with the addition of a dedicated telephoto lens, a feature that was previously exclusive to the Pro models. Google released a teaser for the Pixel 10<\/a> prior to Wednesday\u2019s event. <\/p>\n Techcrunch event<\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSan Francisco<\/span> The company says the new 5x telephoto lens is its best zoom quality, and the 100x Pro Res Zoom allows for high-quality closeups. <\/p>\n Additionally, all phones in the lineup are powered by a new Tensor G5 processor, ushering in the Gemini era and enhancing performance and power efficiency compared to the Tensor G4 chip.<\/p>\n Aside from these updates, there weren\u2019t many obvious changes. The basic design of the phones remains similar to that of the Pixel 9 series. The displays are also staying the same, with the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro featuring a 6.3-inch display, and the Pixel 10 Pro XL with a larger 6.8-inch display.<\/p>\n The Pro models also get improved camera and video quality, along with battery size, which allows for faster charging and finally addresses the longevity gap between Pixel and flagship phones from Apple and Samsung.<\/p>\n Notably, the Pixel 10 devices have magnetic technology built into them thanks to \u201cPixelSnap,\u201d the company\u2019s version of \u201cMagSafe.\u201d Google released a line of magnetic accessories to pair with the lineup, including a new $40 Pixelsnap charger that supports Qi2 wireless charging. The company also launched a $50 phone case with a magnetic ring in the center and a $30 ring stand for hands-free use.<\/p>\n As for Google\u2019s latest foldable<\/a>, it has a larger cover display, measuring at around 6.4 inches, alongside an 8-inch main screen. Google also enhanced the strength of the hinge, and the bezels are thinner for a sleek appearance.<\/p>\n Another exciting addition is an IP68 rating, a first for the device. This means it can stand up to both dust and water, whereas the Pixel 9 Pro Fold has zero dust protection.<\/p>\n Like the other Pixel 10 phones, the Pro Fold is powered by the new G5 chip and includes the latest Gemini AI features. The camera system also received improvements, potentially featuring a 48-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom. The phone also saw an improvement in battery life.<\/p>\n The Pixel 10 Pro Fold costs $1,799 and is available in Moonstone and Jade colors.<\/p>\n The tech giant is coming for Apple\u2019s Journal app with Pixel Journal<\/a>, a new journaling app for Pixel 10 devices. With the app, you can write entries, add photos, locations, and activities, as well as lock entries for privacy. The app also includes AI features, such as prompt suggestions to spark inspiration.<\/p>\n Wearables will also get their time to shine at Google\u2019s event, with the Pixel Watch 4 <\/a>getting a thicker design, a longer battery life, and smaller bezels. The smartwatch also introduced its own AI capabilities, such as the ability to access Gemini by lifting your wrist. <\/p>\nGet ready for a Gemini boost<\/h2>\n
