Google hosts its Made by Google event on Tuesday morning, drawing the tech world's attention after recent hardware showcases by Apple and Amazon. The company promises to unveil several new products during the live-streamed presentation, which kicks off at 10 a.m. ET.
The main attraction at the event is the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, two new high-end smartphones that feature Qualcomm's Snapdragon 855 processors and screen sizes of 5.7 inches and 6.3 inches respectively. Google already reveals some design details, including a distinctive square camera bump and a new orange color option, through a prominent billboard in New York's Times Square.
Beyond the smartphones, reports indicate that Google plans to introduce the Pixelbook Go, a 13.3-inch notebook running on Intel Core processors, as well as a successor to the Google Home Mini called the Nest Mini. The Nest Mini offers improved sound quality and wall-mounting capabilities while continuing to provide access to the Google Assistant.
