When it comes to software, you sometimes get improved performance and new features. But an update could also screw some things over unintentionally, like the latest Google app update for Pixel devices.

Google has announced that enhanced Google Photos features are coming to Google One members on Android and iOS. These include the AI-powered Magic Eraser feature that was first introduced in the Google Pixel 6 series.

The Google Pixel 6a, the latest mid-range smartphone from the tech giant is expected to be released soon and it could potentially be faster than the regular Pixel 6. Specs-wise, the ‘Pixel a’ lineup has traditionally been inferior to the regular Pixel, but this time around it might be different.

According to a leaked Geekbench listing, the Pixel 6a actually beats the standard version in terms of performance. In fact, while minimal, the Pixel 6a actually outperforms the Pixel 6 in single-core and multi-core scores. 

We know that Tensor is not Google's first and only smartphone chip. Of course, the tech giant will continue to work on the next generation as there's no going back after using its own, not to mention that the chip has received a good amount of praise as well. However, we just found out the company is already on track, and it took us by surprise since the Pixel 6 series only came out last week.

Besides the newly announced Google Pixel 6 series, Google also announced a new Pixel Pass plan that comes with the phones together. Created as a "solution" for new Pixel 6 series users, it is an all-in-one plan for extra storage, ad-free videos in YouTube, music and mobile games.

Finally, after a few months of speculations, the Google Pixel 6 series got unveiled in the West. In this article, we will be focusing on what's new about the Pixel 6 series so read on below to find out more.

After Google announced its Pixel 6 series back in early August, many thought the devices would be expensive. Not only the Pixel 6 will be utilizing a new in-house chip, but several other tech specs also sound like they cost a lot. However, the latest price leak has revealed that the Pixel 6 would be much cheaper than the Apple iPhone 13.

Finally, the Google Pixel 6 series has an official launching date. Posted a few hours ago, Google announced that the Pixel Fall Launch will take place on 19 October 2021 at 10 AM PT. In Malaysia's timing, that would be 1 AM on 20 October 2021 if you're interested in tuning in.

Google has teased how powerful the upcoming in-house processor, Tensor, will be in AI performance but never revealed anything about the CPU and GPU tech specs. However, thanks to the rumours, we already know that the chip is likely to use Arm Mali-A78 GPU that Samsung uses on its Exynos 2100. Now, the CPU specs have also arrived on the Internet, but it's weird.

September is the month when we'll be getting to see two of the highly-anticipated flagship smartphone series, one from Google and one from Apple. According to sources, Google could present the Pixel 6 series on 13 September, one day ahead of the Apple iPhone 13's launch.
