After Samsung, which is hosting its Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10, Google has also announced the date of its ‘Made by Google’ event. Based on the teaser video shared by the company on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), it is expected to launch new Pixel devices during the event. The tech giant typically unveils its next generation of devices in the fall. However, this year the company's next Made by Google event has been moved up.

Google’s next ‘Made by Google’ event is set to be held on August 13 at 10.30PM IST. In a departure from tradition, this year's event will be held at Google's headquarters in Mountain View, CA, rather than the usual location of New York City for Pixel launches.

The invite for the upcoming event indicates that the company will be showcasing the best of Google AI, Android software, and the Pixel portfolio of devices. Based on rumours and the release schedule of Google's existing devices, the tech giant is expected to unveil Pixel 9, the next version of the Pixel Fold, a new Tensor chip, a third-gen Pixel Watch, and possibly an update to the Pixel Buds. 

Considering the attention given to AI during Google I/O earlier this spring, the company is expected to introduce some new machine learning-based features as well.

Meanwhile, Samsung, one of the leading smartphone makers, is set to launch two new foldable smartphones - the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Both of these smartphones will be unveiled at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event (Galaxy Unpacked 2024) scheduled for July 10. These new generation foldable devices are expected to enter the Indian market, and pre-booking for both devices will begin soon.
