Earlier today, Google released an episode of its Made by Google podcast, where it gave some surprising news.
For starters, the tech giant revealed that Gemini Nano support will be coming to Pixel 8 devices. The previous announcement regarding this was that support will only be available on the Pixel 8 Pro.
The second announcement made by Google was that they are extending support for Pixel devices to seven years.
This announcement was made by Google’s VP, Seang Chau, who said:
“So when we look at the trajectory of where the original Pixel that we launched in 2016 landed and how many people were still using the first Pixel, we saw that actually, there’s quite a good active user base until probably about the seven-year mark. So if we think about, okay, we want to be able to support Pixel for as long as people are using the device, then seven years is about that right number.”
In the announcement, the CEO shared that they will be able to achieve this by using Tensor, its self-designed mobile chipset.
“The SoC generates probably the most complexity when we’re talking about software updates.”
While this is, indeed, great news for Pixel users, the executive did not reveal whether this was available on other Pixel models. We’ll have to wait for an official announcement soon.
