https://store.google.com/intl/en/ideas/articles/pixel-feature-drop-june-2024/

1. Gemini Nano expands to Pixel 8 and Pixel 8a

2. Gemini powers Summarize in Recorder to run on-device on Pixel 8 and 8a – and the Recorder app now delivers more detailed, downloadable summaries to Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 8a.

3. Take your entertainment to the big screen
Pixel 8a, Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro can now display content on a larger screen, like your computer monitor, when you plug it in via USB-C, giving you more space to enjoy your favorite movies, shows and slides.6

4. Find your phone, even when the battery dies
Find My Device is getting a helpful upgrade that enables you to locate your phone even when it’s off or the battery is dead, all while keeping your location data encrypted and private from Google.

5. Put your best faces forward
The Pixel camera can now automatically identify the best moment from your photo in HDR+ with just a single shutter press, so it’s easier to snap a photo where your face is in focus and smiling.

6. Quickly look up a mystery phone number
Don’t recognize a phone number? With just a few taps, you can now do a reverse phone number search directly from your call log.9
