Made by Google Live Blog: New Pixel Phones, Smartwatches, Gemini, and More

Pixel fans, your time is now. Google will be holding an event today where the company will fully unveil its next line of flagship phones and the accessories that work with them.

The event, called Made by Google, takes place at Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, California. The “Made by” in the event’s name refers to hardware, as this will be the company’s showcase for all of the new products coming to its in-house hardware brand, Pixel. Google is going to show off the latest versions of its flagship Pixel smartphones—including regular and Pro models, a larger XL model, and the folding version—plus new Pixel smartwatches, and Pixel earbuds.

You can read our full report on what to expect from Made by Google. And if you’re wondering how we’re so sure about what Google is going to unveil, well, the leaks have been prevalent this year. Photos and specs for the phones leaked first, then images of the watch, and three weeks before the event, Google even released a short video officially teasing the Pixel 9 Pro handset. Of course, we also expect Gemini—Google’s artificially intelligent chatbot and assistant—to be a big part of today’s announcements. Google showed much of what Gemini is capable of earlier this year at its I/O developer conference, but we should expect to see some Pixel-exclusive Gemini features today.

Get ready for the presentation to begin at 10 am Pacific, 1 pm Eastern, 6 pm British Summer Time. We can expect the Made by Google event to last about 75 or 80 minutes.

WIRED has a few reporters on the ground at Google HQ today. This live blog will kick off about 30 minutes before the presentation begins, and you’ll see all of this text get replaced by live updates. We’ll be posting updates and analysis throughout the event, while also providing necessary context to help frame the statements and announcements from the Google executives on stage.

So we’ll see you back here at 9:30 am Pacific for a half hour of pregame chatter, and (if all of us are lucky) some photos of the complimentary pastries and vegan breakfast burritos on offer to media in attendance. Then the main show starts at 10 am. See you then!
