Google Pixel 9 series phones have officially debuted, with the company heavily promoting the innovative AI features it will bring, adding new colors to the user experience.

In terms of hardware upgrades, Google has comprehensively upgraded the RAM configuration of the new phones to meet the high memory requirements of AI computing. The Pixel 9 comes with 12GB of RAM as standard, while the higher-end models are equipped with 16GB of memory to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted intelligent experience.

However, the real highlight lies in the software-level innovation - the Pixel series phones will enjoy a range of new AI-optimized features. In particular, Pro series users will also enjoy one year of Google One AI Premium service, which includes access to Gemini Advanced, Google's most powerful AI system to date.

Here is an overview of the most notable AI features of the Pixel 9 series:

Pixel Screenshots, Intelligent Life Capture

Similar to Microsoft Recall, but more focused on user-initiated operations, the Pixel Screenshots feature allows you to easily capture important information on the screen, such as party plans or recipes, and then quickly retrieve them through conversations, providing a convenient experience exclusive to Pixel users.

Gemini Screen Insight, Intelligent Replies

Following the Apple concept, Gemini can provide precise replies based on the content on your phone screen. Simply tap "Ask this screen" or "Ask this video," and Gemini will provide more relevant answers based on the current content, such as directly adding restaurant recommendations from a YouTube travel video to Google Maps.

Gemini Assistant, Faster and More Accurate

Gemini voice assistant has undergone a major upgrade, with faster response times, higher quality answers, and significantly reduced error rates thanks to new technologies such as Gemini 1.5 Flash. In addition, Gemini has expanded its linkage capabilities with various applications, such as Keep, Tasks, Utilities, and Google Calendar, making information retrieval and task execution more efficient.

Gemini Live, Real-time Conversation Experience

Google has launched Gemini Live, a voice chat version similar to ChatGPT, which supports natural conversations and allows users to interrupt or pause at any time, even when the screen is locked. However, please note that this feature is only available to Gemini premium subscribers.

Pixel Buds Pro 2, Intelligent Assistant in Your Earphones

With the new Pixel Buds Pro 2, users can simply tap and hold the earphones, say "Let's start a real-time chat," and start a conversation with Gemini, making smart living within reach.

Magic Editor, Reshaping Photo Imagination

Introducing the "Magic Editor," users can easily change the content of photos by describing them in text or specifying image areas, such as replacing the sky background, allowing for unlimited creativity.

Add Me, New Selfie Method

The Pixel 9 camera has added the "Add Me" feature to solve the problem of group photos. Take a photo of your friends first, then switch to a selfie, and use AR technology to automatically stitch them together, eliminating the need for assistance from strangers and ensuring perfect selfies.

Pixel Studio, Text-generated Illustrations

The Pixel Studio app has emerged, allowing users to generate beautiful illustrations by simply entering text prompts. This feature relies on the device-side diffusion model and Google's Imagen 3 model in the cloud, and requires an internet connection.

Circle to Search, One-click Sharing of Image Highlights

The AI-driven "Circle to Search" feature allows you to easily select the highlights of an image and share them with a single click, eliminating the need for cumbersome editing steps and making sharing more efficient and convenient.

AI Weather Summary, Personalized Customization

The Pixel Weather app has been upgraded with Gemini Nano, providing AI-driven personalized weather reports. Users can freely customize the interface layout to make key information clear at a glance.

Call Notes, Intelligent Recording of Key Points

After a call ends, AI automatically generates a summary of the call, allowing you to quickly review important information. The entire process is encrypted to ensure privacy and supports call records that last at least 30 seconds.
