Made by Google 2024: Here’s how Google will unveil the Pixel 9, a new foldable smartphone, and more

Google got a hardware kick in August. On Tuesday, the company announced the long-awaited new Nest Thermostat, along with the Google TV Streamer, which replaces the 11-year-old Chromecast line. Next Tuesday, at Made by Google 2024, the software giant will refresh the Pixel line with a series of new smartphones.

Previous years’ Made by Google events have taken place on the East Coast in October. This one takes place at the company’s Mountain View headquarters and starts at 10:00am PT/1:00pm ET on August 13.

As always, the easiest way to watch is via Google’s own livestream, which coincidentally is embedded below.

In addition to announcing new home devices and an upgrade to Google Assistant, the company announced two new mobile devices: the Pixel 9 Pro and the Pixel 9 Fold. It also dispelled any doubt that its generative AI platform would be central, with the tagline: “A (foldable) phone built for the Gemini era.”

We should see a lot more Android 15 at the event. The mobile operating system is said to debut on the Pixel 9 line, alongside an upgraded internal processor. There are also rumors that the latest version of the Pixel Watch and Pixel Buds Pro will come out.
