Not to be forgotten within the maelstrom of the Apple occasion information, Google has formally announced the subsequent Made By Google launch occasion. The occasion is going on Thursday, Oct. 6 at 7 a.m. PT / 10 a.m. ET in Brooklyn, NY. Google will stream it for individuals who plan to comply with alongside at house.

The firm already teased what was coming throughout Google I/O earlier this 12 months. The new Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro will debut alongside the highly-anticipated Pixel Watch. Will the wearable give Samsung’s Galaxy Watch—the one Android smartwatch value carrying—a run for its cash? For the sake of extra choices changing into obtainable to Android customers, we definitely hope so.

The debut of the Pixel 7

We’re anticipating Oct. 6 to be the official launch occasion for the Pixel 7, Google’s subsequent marquee flagship smartphone. We hope that the inexperienced hue that Google’s been touting in its supplies is as lime-y and saturated because it appears to be like in images.

We already know a bit of in regards to the Pixel 7—there’s already a Google Store listing for the machine. Google has revealed the Pixel 7 and seven Pro are powered by the next-gen Google Tensor processor, dubbed the Tensor G2. Google guarantees “more helpful, personalized features to photos, videos, security, and speech recognition.”

We don’t know a lot else past that. Last month, by way of 9to5Google, there was an alleged prototype of the Pixel 7 and seven Pro floating round, with obvious proof of 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage within the common tier. There may additionally be 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage within the Pro mannequin, which matches an FCC listing from a while in the past. It’s the identical configuration the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6a presently supply.

The much-anticipated Pixel Watch

The Pixel Watch is what everyone seems to be after. This smartwatch has been by means of the rumor ringer in current months. The machine was found left behind at a restaurant in April, giving us a glimpse of what it’d appear to be. We’re additionally listening to that battery life is probably not as much as snuff. A current teardown for the Fitbit Android app revealed charging reminders programmed into the wearable to remind you to dock the watch earlier than heading off to sleep. That’s leaving potential customers feeling a bit of doubtful about its capabilities, contemplating rival Samsung encourages its customers to sleep with their Galaxy Watches to rack up knowledge.

We do know Google constructed a customized processor for the watch and that it’ll doubtless run Wear OS 3. Back in May, Google promised an interface that’s “fluid and easy to navigate” and a UI that’s “more glanceable than ever.” It will even have an interactive crown on the facet of the watch, akin to the Apple Watch.

If you’d prefer to construct up a bit of pleasure, you may go to the Pixel Watch’s landing page within the Google Store. We don’t know the way thick will probably be or its actual dimensions. And whereas we all know will probably be obtainable in colorways that match the Pixel 7 lineup of gadgets, it’s unclear what these colours are.

Will there be buds, too?

Pixel Buds are featured within the advertising materials for this explicit Made By Google occasion, making us scratch our heads a bit. It appears too quickly for a Pixel Buds revival, and we simply had the Pixel Buds Pro debut. But something can occur!

Stay tuned to see what’s subsequent from Google on Oct. 6. We’ll be right here masking all the pieces new. You can even add the occasion to your calendar by way of this handy link.
