{Disarmed} Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro: Mega-Leak shows lots of new press photos, the new Live Space, Face Unlock and more

Image
Evan Blass aka @evleaks struck, and powerful! Because on Twitter he has now shared a lot of promo material for the upcoming Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro from Google. These show not only the new smartphones, but also the new Pixel booth and many other exciting news. In June there were already the first indications for "Live Space", and now there are many more images of the updated "At a Glance" widget that is integrated into the Pixel Launcher. However, this will probably only be available in the USA for the time being. It seems that third-party apps can now appear there too. A screenshot shows a "running activity" from an Adidas app that notes the elapsed time and the distance (walked). Finally, we see a regular calendar appointment with the event title and time period, followed by the weather. In addition to a fingerprint sensor under the display, which is indicated by an icon on the lock screen, the Pixel 6 will again have a face unlock. There doesn...

Google Pixel 6: Saturn reveals great offer for pre-orderers

Image
Google recently finally revealed when the new Pixel 6 smartphones will be presented. Now Saturn has made a small mistake and not only confirmed the price of the Pixel 6, but also unveiled a pre-order promotion that is really tough. Google Pixel 6: Buyers get Bose headphones for free Saturn will be launching a new voucher booklet on October 18, which will again contain many interesting offers. Surprisingly, the coupon booklet has already been photographed at mydealz and there you can actually see Google's Pixel 6 , which will actually only be presented on October 19th.

You get the Bose Headphones 700 for free, which are currently valued at 239 euros (look at Amazon). So effectively you only pay 410 euros for the new Google mobile phone . A real bang offer: Saturn also reveals some specifications of the Pixel 6 : 6.4 inch display wi...

Google Pixel 6 Pro: Appointment for presentation is set - you can expect that

Image
Google made us fidget for a long time. But now it's out. The "Pixel Fall Launch", where the new Pixel 6 smartphones will be presented, will take place in two weeks. But there could be a lot more than was previously expected. Google Pixel 6 Pro: Launching October 19th After weeks of speculation about the presentation date of the Pixel 6 smartphones, it's finally out. The new Pixel models will finally be unveiled on October 19 at 7:00 p.m. German time (source: Google). Google has already revealed many details in advance and even showed the smartphone. Therefore the waiting time for the official presentation was a real torture. They wanted to finally have the Pixel 6 Pro and try it out instead of just being teased. The wait will be worth it though. With the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, Google will introduce the company's best smartphones to date . They will be real high-end smartphones with a 120 Hz display and their own tensor processor, which is perfectly optimi...

{Disarmed} Google: Two-factor authentication automatically activated for 150 million accounts

Image
By the end of this year, Google plans to automatically activate two-factor authentication for over 150 million accounts. Then logging into Google will take a little longer, but it is much more secure. If you have not yet activated it yourself, you can still change this manually in your settings. At the latest by the end of the year, Google will do that for you. With two-step authentication, also known as 2FA, an additional confirmation is requested in addition to the password when logging into the Google account. Various options are available for this, from receiving an SMS to an e-mail with a confirmation link. Google itself recommends using another registered device. You will then be asked to confirm your registration. This means that every time you log in to your Google account with your data, you will then in future receive a request to confirm that it is really you who are logging in. That's how I do it and you should set it up quickly, if not already done. Of course...

Google Maps unlocks a new function that can save you a lot of money

Image
Those who like to drive a lot by car have to cope with ever higher prices for petrol and diesel. Google is responding to the trend and introducing a new feature in Google Maps that can save you money by driving a route that uses less fuel. This can also be a good option for e-cars. Google Maps introduces navigation to save fuel Sometimes you just have to drive a slightly different route to noticeably save fuel. With the help of artificial intelligence and the inclusion of many factors, Google is now starting a new navigation that suggests a fuel-saving route in Google Maps . Using the extended display, you can see directly on the basis of your route how much fuel you would save if you took a different route and how much more time it would take (source: Google). Google shows how this works in this video: In the future, you will continue to see the gray routes as alternative routes, but a small sheet will now also be displayed , which shows that this route can be driven particularl...

{Disarmed} Official: Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will be unveiled on October 19th

Image
It's finally official! Google will present the new Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro on October 19th. The date shouldn't come as a surprise now, as it has been suspected for weeks. Well, now Google has finally officially let the cat out of the bag. The long-awaited phones to be released later this year finally have an official announcement date and it's ... the one unofficially revealed by an infamous leaker more than a month ago. Android purists who initially didn't believe Front Page Tech's Jon Prosser can now circle their calendars on October 19th as the big day for the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro without hesitation. Because Google has finally made it official. But why not before? Of course, the two devices are unlikely to go on sale right after their launch event. If we want to believe Prosser again this time, we have to wait until the end of the month. October 28 is under discussion, let's be surprised. The new chip and the new software should be exciting.

Pixel Fold: This is what Google s first folding phone could look like

Image
The Pixel 6 could just be the beginning, as rumors of a foldable phone from Google persist. Now the first pictures have appeared on which the Pixel Fold can at least be seen as a render. Similarities to the Pixel 6 and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 can hardly be overlooked. Google is about to release the Pixel 6. In addition to the more or less conventional smartphone, the manufacturer could also want to attract attention in another area. There have been rumors for a long time that Google is working on a foldable cell phone . Most recently, reports were fueled by the fact that Google will focus entirely on folding smartphones with Android 12.1. Google Pixel Fold: Render show folding phone The designer Waqar Khan has now asked himself what a pixel fold could look like. According to him, the Pixel Fold will have a hinged display that has a diagonal of 7.6 inches and uses "Ultra Thin Glass" (source: LetsGoDigital). As with existing smartphones of this type, it should come do...

{Disarmed} Google Pixel 6 Pro: First camera samples surfaced [Video]

Image
Now the first photo and video samples of the upcoming Google Pixel 6 Pro have appeared. These were recorded with a prototype of the model and offer a first look at the camera upgrades to be expected for the upcoming Google cell phone. Google chose a different tactic when marketing the Pixel 6 series this year. In the USA and Japan, the new Google Phones are already being advertised on a large scale. This has never been seen before in this mass. And many leaks in advance had already revealed the first details about the equipment of the devices. Last month, This is Tech Today shared a hands-on video on YouTube of the Pixel 6 Pro with a prototype model of Google's upcoming flagship. Thanks to the same source in Nigeria, we can now see a collection of photo and video samples taken with the Pixel 6 Pro's camera. It is important, however, that these recordings were made with a prototype and without final software. In the case of the final models, the recordings should there...

{Disarmed} Google Pixel 6 & Pixel 6 Pro: New details revealed before the release

Image
The Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are expected to launch on October 19th. While previous leaks have revealed a lot about the Pixel 6 Pro, a new leak from China now reveals all the essential details of the duo - including equipment. Much has been said about Google's upcoming flagship smartphones, the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro. A new leak has now revealed most of the important details of the phones well in advance of the launch. But in 2 weeks we should finally have certainty. Let's start with the Pixel 6: The cheaper model should be equipped with a 6.4 ″ 90 Hz AMOLED FullHD + display. There are two cameras on the back - a 50 MP ISOCELLL GN1 main sensor and a 12 MP IMX386 ultra wide angle sensor. There will be an 8 MP selfie camera on the front.

Google is turning pixel phones into a black box

Image
Google likes to equip its own Pixel smartphones with functions that other manufacturers do not offer. In this case, it is about the emergency information that can be stored in the smartphone. Google is adding a "black box" to the function. Google lets Pixel smartphones record and upload emergency videos Google offers the "Emergency Information" app for its Pixel smartphones to download free of charge from the Google Play Store. Once installed and set up, the app can warn you of dangers in your area or help you to dial the emergency call if the smartphone detects that you have had a car accident. Now there is another function that can be compared with a "black box" in aircraft . In an emergency, the Pixel smartphone can record a video of up to 45 minutes and upload it automatically (source: The Verge). If you have set up the "Emergency Information" app, the recording starts automatically when you activate the emergency mode by pressing the p...

{Disarmed} Pixel 5 compared to Pixel 6 in size comparison

Image
The Pixel 5 is one of the most compact Android phones in recent years. Thanks to its size, it is light and easy to use. But will Google stay on course? Or how big will the Pixel 6 get? Will it be significantly larger than the Pixel 5? A first picture gives us the answer. A reddit user bought one of the early available Pixel 6 cases to see how big the new Google phone could be compared to its predecessor. And for fans of compact devices, it should be a disappointment. : reddit In the picture here, this user has their Pixel 5 tucked into the Pixel 6 case and there is a large gap from the top of the phone to the top of the case and a bit of space on the right side. We already knew the Pixel 6 would have a 6.4 "display, which is a decent increase over the 6" display on the Pixel 5. But you can now see how big it will really be in comparison. And the Pixel 6 Pro will be even bigger, because it will have a 6.7 ″ display, making the difference between the two even bigger...

Pixel 6: Google is planning a real price-performance hit

Image
With the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, Google is planning two really good high-end smartphones that can easily compete against the Galaxy S21 and iPhone 13. It has therefore been assumed that the prices are exorbitantly high. Exactly the opposite is the case. The smartphones are much cheaper than expected when it comes to a current leak. Google Pixel 6: Prices expected from 649 euros The latest leaks about the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro have raised concerns that the new high-end smartphones from Google will be really expensive. With the Pro model, one has assumed well over 1,000 euros if you look at the technical equipment. But the smaller Pixel 6 was also seen at over 800 euros. In other words, prices that the competition calls for products with similar features. This is not the case, according to This is Tech Today (watch it on YouTube). The price of the Google Pixel 6 should only increase slightly compared to the Pixel 5. It should only cost 20 euros more and thus be offered for 649 euro...

{Disarmed} Google Pixel 6: Latest Leak Reveals Possible European Prices and Color Names

Image
Google's Pixel 6 range is practically around the corner. The two new Google Phones should be presented in a few weeks. The latest leak now has possible prices for the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro in Europe, as well as some of the color names for us. All the signs so far indicate that the Pixel 6 range will take a big step forward in terms of quality and performance compared to last year's Pixel 5. Rick Osterloh of Google himself also said that the Pixel 6 Pro "will certainly be a premium product." With this in mind, the pricing of the Pixel 6 series has been one of the most eagerly anticipated details of the two phones. M. Brandon Lee of This is Tech Today has now found out some possible prices for the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro in Europe. According to reports, a model of the Pixel 6 is expected to cost EUR 649.00, while a model of the Pixel 6 Pro is to be sold for EUR 899.00. The Pixel 5 started at EUR 629.00 in Europe. Despite the many improvements, the Pixel 6 se...

Inspired by the Pixel 6: Google s Android tablet is a feast for the eyes

Image
Google is about to present new Pixel phones, so a tablet with Android 12 would be a good fit. Now there are at least the first render images showing a chic pixel tablet from Google. Pixel tablet: This is what the Android 12 tablet could look like While Android is extremely successful in the smartphone sector, things are not looking so rosy for tablets. Apple clearly dominates the market with its iPads and some manufacturers have given up the Android experiment on tablets completely after a few attempts. Now, however, Google itself could appear again as a manufacturer of a tablet. The background to the rumors is a recently published patent in which the Japanese subsidiary of Google describes an almost futuristic tablet . The tablet shown has hardly anything in common with the Pixel Slate, even if properties and specifications have remained a secret so far. The first render images show a tablet with particularly thin bezels and rounded corners. It looks strongly inspired by the Pi...

{Disarmed} Google Pixel 7 already spotted in source codes

Image
The new Google Pixel 6 series has not even been presented yet, as there is already the first information about the successor. So the presumed Pixel 7, if the name will be taken. Because years ago there was already a Google tablet with this name, so it is possible that the 2022 Google phone will be given a different name. In recent years, Google has always codenamed its smartphones with fish names. With the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, a different species of animal was chosen for the first time. And even with the possible Pixel 7, Google has now used a species of bird as a code name. The name "pipit" (beeper) can already be read internally in the source code. A code name has yet to be found, which does not necessarily mean that there will only be one model. It is far too early for that to be able to name any details about the equipment, as the model will not be available until next autumn. So it will be a long time before there are more details about the possible Pixel 7...

{Disarmed} Google Pixel 6 Pro: The first hands-on video has surfaced

Image
So now it's here, the first hands-on video for the upcoming Google Pixel 6 Pro. So someone has already got their hands on the device and presented it in a video. I'm excited to see how long the video will stay online, because I can't imagine that Google will like this. Well, after what seemed like countless leaks in the last few days, there is now a first video of the Pixel 6 Pro. But we don't really learn anything new here either, after all, the design and large parts of the equipment are already known. But you still have to be a little careful whether everything will come true that has been leaked so far. This is also the case with this video. Because the logo on the device indicates that it is probably an early test device. That means there can be some differences between what we see here and the actual production device. Still, pictures say more than 1000 words, so if you want to risk a first look, here you go: Click here to view the content of YouTube. ...

{Disarmed} Does the Google Camera app reveal the launch date of the Pixel 6 series?

Image
Will the Google camera app now reveal the launch date of the Pixel 6 series? Because a GCam flag with the date 10/27/2021 has now appeared. It is believed that Google's Pixel 6 range will be available in stores on that day. And again, October 19th could have been confirmed as the launch date for the new Google Phones. Google has still not uttered a single syllable about the release date of the new Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro. So it's like in previous years, Google seems to be enjoying it when people guess when the new Pixel smartphones will appear. The fact that October 27th has appeared as a flag in the GCam can only mean that something happens on that day - possibly the indication to install a new update of the app. And so far it has always been the case that with a new generation of pixels, a new version of the GCam has also been available. So probably October 27th will be the date when you can buy the new Pixel 6 models. Google usually presents these 1 week in advanc...

Google Pixel 6 (Pro): Camera offers unique features

Image
The Pixel 6 (Pro) is just around the corner and many of the features of the two phones are already clear. Now even the last details about the built-in camera are no longer a secret. In this area in particular, Google has big plans. Google Pixel 6 (Pro): New details about the camera Google is about to launch the sixth generation of Pixel phones. After the group itself went on the offensive and published some exciting details about the cell phones, another leak is now revealing the final secrets about camera functions . Google would like to catch up with the lost competition, which is noticeable in the hardware, but even more so in the software. Both the standard version and the Pro version rely on a main sensor from Samsung, which enables images with up to 50 MP. In addition, there is an ultra-wide angle from Sony , which allows 12MP. The Pixel 6 Pro also has a telephoto lens with a maximum of 48 MP. Selfies with the standard version are 8 MP, with the Pro model it is 12 MP. The s...
