About this episode
At the “Made by Google” event on August 13, Google introduced a range of new hardware and software, including the Pixel 9 series, Pixel Watch 3, and Pixel Buds Pro 2. Key highlights include the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, a foldable version of the Pixel 9, and the larger Pixel 9 Pro XL.
The Pixel Watch 3 now offers two sizes and improved battery life, while the Pixel Buds Pro 2 features upgraded noise cancellation. All devices are powered by Google’s new Gemini AI, which enhances real-time language translation, photography, and more.
Google also showcased upcoming accessibility features in Android, such as enhanced voice commands, real-time captioning for video calls, and a new camera mode that assists users with visual impairments by providing detailed audio descriptions of scenes.
Listen in as Steven and Shaun are joined by Carrie Morales from “Carrie On Accessibility” to discuss and react to the latest Google news.
