From Rock Tumblers to Magic Capture: Designing the Pixel 11

from Ads Decoded

Welcome to the Made by Google Podcast! Today, host Rachid Finge sits down with Stephanie Scott, Director of Product Management, to get the inside story on the brand-new Pixel 11 series.Stephanie takes us inside Google's testing labs to explain how they use a specialized machine—think of it like a custom rock tumbler filled with keys and hairbrushes—to tackle the age-old problem of screen scratches. We also talk about Magic Capture, the new camera feature that grabs perfect, emotional photos right out of your videos, and an Instant Night Sight that’s now four and a half times faster. Plus, we cover how Rambler completely cleans up your voice dictation (even when you change your mind mid-sentence) and how the new colorful Highlight LEDs on the back of the phone help you stay connected without constantly staring at a screen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
