    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Even if you’re cool entrusting Google with the amount of data you need to reap the benefits of all these tools, there’s no guarantee they’ll last: this is the company that promised Pixel Pass subscribers easy device upgrades every two years and then canceled the program just shy of the two-year mark.

    Tensor has gained a bit of a reputation for being prone to overheating, and I did see the Pixel 8 Pro refuse to capture video at its highest resolution because the device was too hot.

    Face Unlock’s upgrade to a Class 3 biometric, which means it can be used for the stuff that requires the highest level of security — namely, mobile payments and banking apps.

    Crucially, the Assistant is also better at understanding when I’m pausing in the middle of a thought — it lets me finish asking “What’s the weather tomorrow… in San Francisco?” without jumping in and answering the first half of my question like the Pixel 7 Pro does.

    It automatically identifies different sounds in your video clips and separates them into channels — usually one for speech and another for noise or background music, depending on the situation.

    Sure, there’s a chance that Google won’t even be making phones in seven years, but the company has made good on its previous software support promises, so it’s not completely foolish to believe it might happen.
