Hey @madebygoogle, can I try on the Pixel Watch and Pixel 7 in AR? I'm indecisive and can't choose a color. 🥴

Less than 6 days until the midterm elections. If you're voting early, get your ballots in the drop box. 🇺🇲 #vote

Cat ran across Cortana's keyboard. 🐈

TIL Microsoft Power Toys has a text extractor tool to grab text from images.

Also learned... it's not that great. 🙃

@themoll1245 Ya I think I'll need to hold them to decide as well. Enjoy the 7!

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

Missed the Pixel 7 preorder deal bc I couldn't choose between the 7 and and the 7 Pro. 🫠

Face Unlock on the new Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro will utilize the Tensor G2 instead of a special camera arrangement, but that means you may still need your fingerprint for unlocking certain apps like your bank or password manager. #MadeByGoogle

The built-in VPN powered by Google One coming soon will be free on Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro #MadeByGoogle

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

New Quick Phrases and Super Res Zoom up to 30x confirmed to require the new Tensor G2 chip on Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro #MadeByGoogle

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

Overall good solid announcements at #MadeByGoogle. Looking forward to the long awaited Pixel Watch, and considering the Pixel 7. Pixel Tablet looks pretty cool as well. Can't wait to try them all.

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

Google using "Hey Google" followed by commands during this #MadeByGoogle event, with a Google Home mini sitting a few feet away is not the business. So far it has played classical music, turned on the living room lights, and a couple other failed activations.

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

Been waiting for someone to do this right. Hopefully the Pixel Tablet with the speaker dock (aka portable Nest Hub Max) can fit the bill. #MadeByGoogle

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

These price points are super enticing. #MadeByGoogle

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

Pixel 7 Photo Unblur feature can use machine learning to fix old blurry photos from your library, taken on older devices. This is awesome. #FixedonPixel #MadeByGoogle

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

Lol. Forever shade @Apple for not supporting RCS, until they do 😁 #MadeByGoogle

[Tyler J. @TyTheDevGuy]

As expected, Pixel 7 finally gets Face Unlock 🙏🏻#MadeByGoogle
