Google's iconic Pixel series has long been celebrated for its gold-standard camera technology. In 2021, with the Pixel 6 series, Google raised the bar in the world of smartphone photography, leaving other flagship Android devices in its wake. The subsequent release of the Pixel 7 in 2022 further solidified Google's prowess in imaging. Now, the Google Pixel 8 is almost near launch, leaks surrounding the smartphone hint at an even more remarkable leap in camera quality.
The latest revelation comes courtesy of 91Mobiles, thanks to the leaker Kamila Wojciechowska, who shared Pixel 8 camera specifications and an intriguing AI promotional video for the upcoming phone, offering an exciting glimpse into Google's evolving flagship smartphone lineup (via 9to5Google).
One standout feature is the "Magic Editor," a technology previously announced by the company earlier this year for select Pixel phones. It represents a remarkable evolution of the Magic Eraser tool, allowing users to transform their captured moments into precisely the images they envision. In a captivating demonstration, we witness the transformation of three separate snapshots of a family on a carousel into a single, harmonious image where everyone smiles and gazes at the camera simultaneously.
Moreover, Magic Editor showcases its prowess by effortlessly rearranging subjects within an image, removing distracting background elements, and seamlessly transitioning a mundane midday sky into a breathtaking sunset. This innovation raises intriguing questions about the increasingly blurred boundaries between reality and artistry in modern photography.
