Google’s next annual developer conference, known as Google I/O , has already been set. As announced by the company, the event will take place on May 10 in person for the first time after 4 years of virtual realization due to the situation generated by the COVID-19 pandemic. An event in which the American company will give users a first look at its new Google Pixel 7a and the Android 14 version of the operating system.
Likewise, the presentation can be seen live free of charge for everyone and it is even possible to register to receive news related to the gala. This will take place at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California, the headquarters of Google itself; while we expect two main announcements in it.
The Google Pixel 7a and Android 14 getting closer
This Google I/O event is quite popular among Android users, especially since it is the first look at the new Android 14 system update , as well as the presentation of the Google Pixel 7a along with other devices developed by the giant Internet.
The truth is that, for the moment, everything that surrounds the new compact phone of the American brand is a mystery, since it has not confirmed anything about it. However, the leaks have done their job to publicize the possible specifications of the Google Pixel 7a , but it should be noted that they are not official.
First of all, rumors indicate that it will equip an AMOLED-type screen with a size of 6.1 inches and a refresh rate of 90 Hz . The latter would be very good news, since the previous models stayed at 60 Hz, which is illogical for a mobile with similar features in general and that costs more than 400 euros. As the brain, it hopes to integrate the Google Tensor 2 chip carried by the other members of the Pixel 7 series to provide guaranteed performance for any task.
Regarding the photographic section, the camera configuration of the Google Pixel 7a is made up of a 64 MP Sony IMX787 main lens and a 13 MP ultra-wide angle. As for autonomy, leaks that reveal the battery capacity have not yet come to light, but we do know that it will incorporate Android 13 from the factory at the software level.
Android 14 and other announcements
Another of the great protagonists of the Google I/O 2023 event is the update of the Android 14 system. A version that does not intend to completely renew the devices in terms of news and that intends to say goodbye to older applications, since Android 14 only It will support 64 bits at first . An interesting option is the possibility of making emergency calls without coverage thanks to the satellite connection in the same way as the iPhone 14.
The rest of the conference announcements could be related to the Pixel Fold , the company’s folding mobile, and the new Google Pixel 8 series. It only remains to wait about two months, specifically, until May 10, 2023, to obtain an official look at all these aspects.
