It has released a couple of teaser videos – one showing theGoogle Pixel 8and Pixel 8 Pro smartphones and another with a very brief clip of the forthcomingGoogle Pixel Watch 2.
The first, titled “The W8 is Almost Over”, gives hints at design features for all of the devices. It shows the camera unit on the Pixel 8 and the rotating display on the new Pixel Watch. Both are shown in the previously-rumoured “porcelain” colourway.
It’s hard to see any dramatic, generational changes to the Watch at this stage, though.
One interesting snippet of information that you can spot if you look closely enough is the date all of the devices are set to be released – for pre-orders, anwyay.

The other video focuses entirely on the Pixel 8 Pro and 8 handsets, showing them in the porcelain and coral colourways. Again, there’s not a lot of detail and, let’s face it, the twoGoogle Pixeldevices look like, well, two Google Pixel devices. However, the rear camera unit is less cluttered than on thePixel 7 Pro, for example.

It’s also worth noting that, on the Pixel 8, the strip once again matches the colour of the rest of the phone. Although that’s hardly new.
As for specs, we are still relying on rumours and speculation for now.
Both handsets will undoubtedly run on the new Google Tensor G3 chipset and sport 6.17- and 6.7-inch displays respectively.
The camera on each istipped to come with some big enhancements, while we’re yet to get confirmation on whether the Pixel 8 Pro wioll ditch a physical SIM tray or not. It has been claimed to beadopting eSIM only this time around.
We’ll find out in just a few weeks when Google officially unveils them on stage in New York.
