Why Google Pixel phones?
Cameras
The camera tech Google cram into their Pixel phones is phenomenal, and has made them industry leaders in both phone camera hardware, and software.
The Google Pixel 8 series takes the already excellent camera from the Pixel 7 series and sets the bar even higher. Both phones use the same 50-megapixel main camera, but while the Pixel 8 pairs this with a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens, the Pixel 8 Pro boasts a 48-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 48-megapixel 5x optical telephoto lens.
It also allows for manual controls - so you can set ISO, shutter speed and aperture like a Pro, and save the results as 50-megapixel RAW images.
Software
If the camera hardware is impressive, the AI imaging software in the Pixel 8 series is next level. Use Magic Editor to move or erase people of objects, change the colour or shade of the sky or recast the light for stunning results.
Best Take allows you to take multiple photos and swap out the faces from each to get the perfect expressions on everyone's face - perfect for family snaps.
What's more, Google are promising lots more AI tech in future software updates, and with a generous seven years of updates included, the future looks exciting for these phones.
Security
The new Google Tensor G3 processor, paired with the next-generation Titan M2 security chip, helps make Pixel phones even more resilient to attacks.
The Google Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 8 have multiple levels of security to help protect everything on your phone: texts, photos, sensitive data and more - plus a VPN to keep you secure online.
Add seven years of security updates, and the Pixel 8 range starts to look like a very safe bet.
Google Pixel watches
With their sleek design and impressive functionality, Google Pixel watches are a great choice for style, fitness and safety.
Why Google Pixel watches?
Health and Fitness
Google Pixel Watch 2 introduces a raft of excellent new health and fitness features to help you achieve a better you. Three new sensors monitor your heart rate, skin temperature, blood oxygen levels, and stress levels.
Use the ECG app to check your heart rhythm for AFib, and analyse your sleep patterns for a better night's rest.
Auto Workout mode automatically monitors your activity and logs it all so you can spend all your effort on getting fitter.
Style
The Google Pixel Watch already looks fabulous with its smooth, rounded case, but you can jazz it up even further, and personalise it to your individual style.
A wide range of straps are available, from the Active Sport Band which lets your skin breathe, plus the Woven Band, Crafted Leather Band, Stretch Band and more, all in a range of colours.
Plus, you can choose from a variety of snazzy watch faces to really set off your look.
Safety features
As with their Pixel phones, Google has spent a lot of time thinking about security, and the Pixel Watch 2 has a number of excellent features to help with your personal safety.
With Safety Timer, you can set a timer when you're out on the town that automatically shares your location with chosen contacts when the timer runs out. Or you can instantly share your location and additional info with contacts at the push of a button.
Your watch will share your medical details in an emergency, and can even alert responders if you've had a fall.
