## What to expect from Google's event

Google is asking the press to come "see a few new things Made by Google", a tagline it's used before. Here's all the hardware we expect to see.

### Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL

Google's flagship Pixel devices are usually unveiled in October during a Made By Google event. The Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL were announced October 2017, for instance, while the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL followed in 2018.

This year, the heavily leaked [Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL][3] should debut. Reports suggest the Pixel 4 will have a 5.7-inch screen and the Pixel 4 XL will have a 6.3-inch display for 2019. It's claimed both displays will offer 90Hz refresh rates, like [the OnePlus 7 Pro][4], offering a smooth and slick experience.

### Nest Mini

Google might launch a second version of the Google Home Mini, a $29 Google Assistant-enabled smart speaker that launched in 2017 to directly compete with the Amazon Echo Dot. The new version, the Nest Mini, could come with a built-in wall mount and better sound. Keep in mind Google and Nest combined into a single brand called Google Nest in May.

The Nest Mini should be around the same size as the first Home Mini, [according to 9to5Google][6], but it will add a 3.5mm stereo jack. It could also come with proximity awareness and will be available in a series of new colours to choose from. If you needed more proof of its existence, the Nest Mini may have [recently surfaced at the FCC][7], indicating an imminent release.

### Nest Wifi

[Google][9] might also update its Google Wifi mesh router system. [9to5Google claimed][10] it's called "Nest Wifi" and features a single hub router and two new "beacons" that serve as Google Assistant smart speakers. So, it's embedding Google Assistant into the router system, offering two [Google Home Mini-like][11] speakers that blanket your house with Wi-Fi and sound.

They should work with new Google Assistant commands that'll let you halt the internet by device or room - a useful trick for parents - and they'll be backward-compatible with Google Wifi routers. Now, [in the past,][12] we heard about a similar setup code-named "Mistral". It was rumoured to be a Wi-Fi mesh router with smart speaker capabilities and support for Wi-Fi 6.

Mistral also offered Bluetooth 5.1 and worked with ZigBee-based smart devices.

### Pixelbook 2

An update to the Google Pixelbook [recently appeared at the FCC][14] and in [leaked images][15], revealing it comes with a 4K display. The new Chromebook, codenamed Atlas, will have thinner bezels and may be available in more colours. Other than that, details are thin. But Google has also already [confirmed it's doubling down on Pixelbook,][16] thereby [confirming a Pixelbook 2][17] should arrive at some point.

### Pixel Buds 2

This one is a long-shot, as we haven't heard much about an update to Pixel Buds, but [9to5Google's Stephen Hall][19] seems to think they're coming.

[The Pixel Buds][20] are two regular-sized earphones, linked together by a cloth-covered cord. They pair to most smartphones via Bluetooth. There's no gesture for skipping songs, oddly, although you can activate Google Assistant with a tap-and-hold, at which point you can ask to go back to a track, as long as the music-streaming app you're using supports voice playback controls.

The company hasn't really pushed Pixel Buds since it launched them a couple years ago, nor has it fully marketed their smart features, like the ability to handle real-time language translation, perhaps because they weren't well-received. Maybe it'll attempt a do-over with Pixel Buds 2?
