Google’s Made by Google 2024: What to Expect from the August 13 Event

Google’s next major hardware event, Made by Google 2024, will commence on August 13 at its headquarters in Mountain View, California. This highly anticipated event is expected to unveil a range of new devices, including the Pixel 9 series, and updates to several existing products. Stay tuned to the embedded video below to catch the announcement live stream.

The spotlight will be on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, a successor to the 2023 Google Pixel Fold. The new foldable device will feature an inner screen expanded to 8 inches. Additionally, the Pixel 9 Pro will see a significant upgrade with a 4GB RAM increase from the Pixel 8 Pro, bringing the total to 16GB. This improvement aims to enhance performance, especially for running Google’s AI chatbot Gemini seamlessly.

The Pixel 9 Pro XL is another rumored highlight, featuring a larger 6.8-inch display. Interestingly, it is rumored to be even smaller than the Pixel 8, with a screen size of 6.5 inches compared to the Pixel 8’s 6.7 inches. The Pixel 9 series is also expected to benefit from seven years of software updates and security patches, ensuring longevity and reliability.

Beyond smartphones, Google might introduce the next generation of its wireless earbuds. Speculation is rife that Android 15 will debut this August, potentially offering new features like Theft Detection and the ability to add photos to Google Wallet.

The event could also see an upgrade to the Google Nest Hub Max, which is approaching its five-year mark. Many anticipate that Google aims to release its new Pixel phones ahead of Apple’s expected iPhone 16 launch in September.
