Google I/O 2023 updates: Google Pixel 7a, Pixel Tablet and Pixel Fold official; details inside

Google I/O 2023 Event Live: All the news updates from Google’s biggest developer conference.

Google I/O 2023 Live: Pixel 7a, Pixel Fold, Anroid 14 and more incoming
Google I/O 2023- Pixel 7a, Pixel Fold Launch Live: All the updates.

Google I/O 2023 kicks-off today. As is usually the case, Google is expected to make a bunch of announcements, specific to both hardware and software, and it seems I/O in 2023 will be packed. The Pixel 7a is going to be special since it’s confirmed to launch in India soon after its global unveiling at I/O. But the true showstopper will be another product, one that Google has never done before. We’re of course talking about the Google Pixel Fold, a foldable device that will try and break the monopoly of Samsung in that space.

Google is also taking another shot at tablets with the Pixel Tablet. The tablet was first announced in early 2022 and was pegged to go on sale in 2023. Though not explicitly confirmed, there’s an off chance we may get to hear about it at Google I/O 2023— so fingers crossed there. Software is the usual suspect at I/O and Google’s never felt so cornered by competition—at least in Search, its most money-making business— so we’re expecting to see more AI conversations on stage alongside all the deets on Android 14.
