Watch the Pixel 9 series debut live here

This year's Google hardware event, "Made by Google," is going to be packed. Perhaps even more packed than Samsung's Unpacked event last month (no pun intended). Google is expected to announce not two, but four standalone Pixel smartphones as well as its next-generation Pixel smartwatch and TWS Pixel Buds Pro 2.

The event will start on August 13 at 5:00 PM GMT.

The four Pixel smartphones in question are the Pixel 9, the Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The Pixel 9 Pro XL is arguably one of the most interesting devices of the bunch, given that Google has stuck with the dual-flagship scheme for the last couple of years, so a top-tier Pixel smartphone is going to be an interesting development.

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is also a highly anticipated foldable handset. Many are expecting it to right the wrongs of its predecessor, which was received with mixed feelings, to say the least.

The Pixel Watch 3 will likely arrive with an improved display and UWB support, making it the first in the Android smartwatch segment. However, rumors so far don't promise any improvements in performance or battery life.

With extensive leaks on all the devices, we hope Google was able to keep some surprises.

Go home Google, you're just not relevant with your tensor, overheating and the slowest charging on the market.
