Today is Google's Pixel press event, and no one knows what to expect.*

2020 is a long time to wait
Pixel buds have a hybrid design. They seal the ear for tight bass. A spatial vent allows some air to flow through to reduce the plugged ear feeling. Pixel Buds don’t arrive until Sprint 2020 for $179. #madebygoogle #pixel #google pic.twitter.com/xks5CH7LW1
— Z (@[email protected]) (@ericmzeman) October 15, 2019
First up is the new Pixel Buds – 5 hour battery life, long range bluetooth and a new design. $179 and available in 2020. Damn that’s late.

Pixel 4 is going full-on with gestures with the Soli radar sensor…not use to using devices this way so I always forget this tech is there. Maybe if it works it will change that.

The smaller Pixel 4 has a 2800mAh battery. Now since it has a 90hz display, that battery life will be 2 minutes

Disappointment because of the lack of wide-angle mode
Ironic that my first shot inside the #madebygoogle event is made possible by a wide-angle lens we're not expecting on the new #Pixel4 😭 pic.twitter.com/5N6eaU0LAX

“This isn’t mad science, it’s just physics” as part of Google event script talking about their HDR, is that a Phil Schiller dig?
