A fresh report claims that Google is developing a new small-sized Google Pixel. With the release of the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, Google recently vacated the small phone market. There, high-resolution cameras and a Tensor chip will be placed in a smaller body than Google’s current models. Small phones are an enigma. They rarely perform as well financially as their larger equivalents, despite a rise in demand visible in some online communities.
It is due to a number of factors, such as the size of the chassis, which limits the battery size, the lack of a camera etc. It’s unclear whether Google aims to shrink the Google Pixel to the 6.1-inch standard that the iPhone 14 and Samsung Galaxy S22 have.
Both would have a size range that is significantly wider than the “Pro” Pixel. In the past, Google offered normal and XL-size Pixels for purchase. A truly tiny Pixel would mark a comeback to the norm.
Features of a small Google Pixel
1. Smart Storage
The idea of a “little touch with a big impact” nicely describes our first hidden Google Pixel feature. In the case of Pixel phones, this appears to be a standard, native part of the entire user experience, which Google refers to as Smart Storage. Google Photos and Smart Storage work together to automatically delete local copies of backed-up media after a predetermined amount of time.
When you use Photos’ built-in backup feature to sync all of your material to the cloud, there’s really no reason to have the redundant local copies in place. Photos and videos are among the biggest consumers of local phone storage.
2. Google lens on demand
One of the best-kept secrets at Google is Google Lens. The service can perform a lot of different things. You can use it to convert text from the real world, such as a document, a whiteboard, a business card, or a pamphlet, into actionable text on your phone.
Since you’re using a Google Pixel phone, all of these features are already included in your smartphone and are never more than a few taps away. Lens also includes the ability to scan QR codes.
3. Driving mode
The Google Pixel phone features a straightforward but powerful method for protecting you against your own impure tendencies. Driving mode is a feature that detects when you’re in motion and puts your phone into Do Not Disturb mode for you.
Alternatively, if your car has Android Auto built-in, it can also automatically launch it and enable you to use some phone features through that system.
4. Quick video capturing and photo extracting
Last but not least perhaps your next on-the-go moment recording will involve the usage of video. Now it can be catching a brief clip of a crucial moment at a conference, immortalizing a colleague’s humiliation at the corporate retreat. It also includes filming the first steps or dances of your child, pet etc.
It’s fast and easy to record movies on your Pixel phone, regardless of what situation you’re in. Additionally, after the fact, you can save still images from the video; win-win, baby.
