At Wednesday’s Made by Google event, the tech giant unveiled its latest device lineup: the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro phones, the Pixel Watch 2 smartwatch, and a refresh to last year’s Pixel Buds Pro earbuds.

The Pixel 8 and 8 Pro feature an all-new design, with improved AI photo and video features that are powered by a Tensor G3 chipset, like Video Boost (which helps better record videos in low light), Audio Erase (which removes background noises from a video) and, for the Pro only, Best Take (which lets you swap out faces in a group photo with better ones).
