FULL STORY ====================================================================== We always expected to see the Google Pixel 8 launch in October, but now we know exactly when, as Google has announced that its holding an event on Wednesday, October 4, where well see the latest additions to the companys Pixel portfolio of devices. Thats the wording used in the invite, and while the Pixel 8 isnt mentioned by name, Google has sneakily included the number eight in a post about the event, saying the w8 is almost over. So were almost certain the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro will be in attendance, especially as new Pixel phones almost always land in October of their release years. Big fall launches are stressful, but Pixel helps its friend stay cool as a cucumber. #BestPhonesForeverThe w8 is almost over. Rest up for #MadeByGoogle on October 4th and sign up for updates: https://t.co/hcAzJ83ajV pic.twitter.com/NWBP2RTdSn August 30, 2023 See more There arent any other clues that we can see in the post, though there is an amusing video making fun of the iPhone 15 likely getting USB-C at last. However, wed guess that it wont just be the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro that we see at this event. The mention of Pixel portfolio of devices leaves room for other Pixel gadgets, and were specifically expecting to see the Pixel Watch 2 soon, so theres a good chance that will make an appearance. What we almost certainly wont see is the Pixel Fold 2 , the Pixel Tablet 2 , or the Pixel 8a , as the current models all launched too recently for that. A new chipset and a new sensor Still, there should be plenty to get excited about, as leaks suggest the Pixel 8 line will have upgraded cameras and a more powerful chipset, while the Pixel 8 Pro might additionally sport a temperature sensor. So these will likely rank high among the best Pixel phones , and perhaps even among the best phones period. The launch event is being held in New York. But of course, youll be able to tune in online too, with Google typically streaming its launches live over YouTube, and direct from its online store. It kicks off at 10am ET / 7am PT / 3pm BST on October 4, which is 1am AEDT on October 5 for those in Australia. But if you cant tune in live, dont worry the event will surely remain streamable after the fact, and well be covering the launch in full on TechRadar, so simply head back here for all the announcements and our expert analysis.
