A few days back Google introduced its second generation line up of products and some new stuff along the way for the consumers, it’s fascinating to see how much improvement the hardware team achieved as they didn’t have a positive reputation for selling hardware that much, remember ‘nexus phones’ to me it seemed like google assistant was the center of all things that happened in the event, Pixel phones, Home Mini and Max, new designed Pixelbook, Clips, Pixel Buds, and an updated Daydream View headset.All powered with AI
Let’s start with a successor to one of the best phones for 2016 i.e pixel, it was one of the most anticipated phones this year, with its predecessor having the best smartphone camera in any smartphone in that year, Pixel 2 and pixel 2 XL is again the most highest-rated camera on the market right now .The smartphone has some tweaked design elements to make it water resistant and this time there is no headphone jack, which is getting more common with high-end smartphone nowadays,small attempt towards a wireless future maybe, perhaps the most intriguing feature is the “Google Lens” where it’s an introduction of visual smart detection system where you will be able to look up landmarks, books, music albums, movies and artwork by clicking on the Lens icon in Google Photos, all around you.
It’s fascinating to see how far chrome operating system has come and is pushing itself forward in the midst of overly dominating windows and Mac operating systems,initially Chromebooks were low powered laptops to get the most generic works done, but now they are introducing Pixelbook which is a 12.3-inch high-resolution touchscreen that comes with premium hardware then again google assistant is also a big part of it, Artificial intelligence is everywhere nowadays
Started with Alexa powered amazon echo, which was a big leap towards smart interconnected homes almost most of the major companies has introduced their version of artificial intelligence powered speakers, and google home being wildly popular with its google assistant, Now they are introducing a smaller version of it calling it Google Home Mini. With a sleek design, the Mini is about the size of a doughnut. with an integration of a 360-degree sound that comes in 3 different colours (chalk, charcoal and coral).the size is quite similar to echo bot
They are also introducing Max which is their first speaker with Smart Sound, a new audio experience powered by artificial intelligence, that can adjust the sound of its speaker depending on your environment, your context, and your preferences.
The most unexpected new stuff that was introduced was A wireless headphones that help you do more within Google Assistant and comes with built-in Translate capabilities, its supposed to work with 40 languages.
