This Tech giant Google is never relenting in advancing in technology, they dont want to only remain relevant i the industry, they also want to retain there position, and i can gladly say that Google is here for business. At the Google event, they announced a couple of products/features which include:
NEW GOOGLE HOME DEVICES/FEATURES
They have added a couple of features to Google home like the voice match, a feature that would allow you the assistant to recognize your voice and customize answers to your account, Hands-free calling, Broadcast to help you to broadcast message to all the home devices in your house and routines which will help you set up multiple things at the same time with a keyword.
Google also introduced a cheaper version of Google home. The Google home mini will be competing with Amazon’s Echo Dot. it has a fabric build with 4 LED lights.
Then there is Google Home Max that comes with smart sound and is 20 times more powerful than Google home for volume.
Yeah, all of these products are not officially coming to Africa especially Nigeria yet, lets keep our fingers crossed as we wait.
NEW GOOGLE PIXELBOOK
The second announcement at the Google event is the new Google Pixel book which would re-imagine the laptop experience with Google’s Chrome OS, it is also the first laptop with the Google assistant built in.
The google pixel book doesn’t just look great, it also feels great, according to Google, that is. It’s a 12.3-inch touchscreen device with a 235 ppi, and a Quad HD LCD. It comes with backlit soft keys. Other specs include Core i5 and i7 processors, up to 16GB ram, two USB-C ports, up to 512GB storage. and 10 hours of battery. Then there is the Google stylus, Google’s first ever stylus, which looks kinda big but claims to have 10ms of latency.
The price of the Google pixel ranges from $999 and the stylus is $99.
No African country is listed to receive this device. lets keep our fingers crossed as we wait.
GOOGLE PIXEL 2
Google has officially unveiled the Google Pixel and 2 and the Pixel 2 XL devices which come in at 5-inches and 6-inches respectively. And as seen from the leaks, the new Pixel device comes with an all-aluminum body with “premium hybrid coating.” It comes with front-facing stereo speakers, unfortunately, and as predicted, this doesn’t come with a headphone jack. The smaller Pixel 2 is a “full HD OLED” display with 100,000:1 contrast ratio and both devices are IP68 water resistant
As for the features, the Pixel 2 comes with always on display (just like one debuted on the Galaxy S7) but Google has added a feature that allows you to detect any song without unlocking your phone.
As for the cameras, the Pixel 2 gets a 98% score on DXOMark, it is a single lens (Yes, no dual lens) camera that comes with OIS and digital stabilization. It also comes with portrait mode for the front-facing camera, this uses dual-sensor image technology.
Specifications and Features of the Above Mentioned Google Devices
GOOGLE PIXEL 2 SPECIFICATIONS AND FEATURES
This is a smart wireless headphone that looks kind of big but allows you to tap on the buds to perform actions like “increase the volume with just a swipe,” to name a few.
One cool feature of the Google pixel buds is the ability to translate languages in real time. A feature that actually made me wow.
THE GOOGLE CLIPS
Finally! WHEW! Google introduced a new tiny camera that works with the Google Pixel 2 and cost about $249.
The tiny gadget comes with a high-performance lens and an AI engine, at the core of the camera.
