Google Pixel 9 series: what are the upgrades?
When compared with the Google Pixel 8 series, the upcoming Pixel 9 lineup will bring considerable upgrades in the hardware specifications department. Be it the newer Tensor G4 processor or the upgraded 50MP front camera than the Pixel 8’s Tensor G3 SoC and 10.5MP selfie shooter, the Pixel 9 series has much more to offer than the Pixel 8 series.
It’s also highly likely that Google will bring new AI features with the Pixel 9 series. While the Pixel 9 series may not run on Android 15 out of the box, it will likely get the latest version of Android shortly after its release. The lineup will get at least two new AI tools: Pixel Screenshots and Add Me.
With the Pixel Screenshots, you can create searchable screenshots with the ability to converse with an AI chatbot to find what you’re searching for. The Add Me feature lets you merge two photos into one using AI, making it a perfect tool for combining multiple group photos into one, so no one is left out of the picture.
While that is all that we know about the Pixel 9 series so far, we expect to learn more about the lineup’s specifications and features in the coming days leading up to its August 13th release.
