Google has announced its new Nexus 6P flagship smartphone, which is basically a new version of its Nexus 6 smartphone with a slightly smaller 5.7-inch display and a completely new design built by Huawei. Google is calling it the “most premium phone yet” due to its all-metal body, a USB Type-C port for fast charging, a powerful 64-bit processor and a 12.3 MP camera sensor. Expect to pay $699 CAD. Then there’s the new Nexus 5X which built by LG. It features a 5.2” screen, and the same 12.3 MP camera and Type-C port as the Nexus 6P. Both phones include a new fingerprint sensor which gives users quick and secure access to the phone, as well as use of Android Pay (in the U.S. and not in Canada…. At least for now). Expect to pay $379 and up for one. Canadian carrier Telus reached out to me to state that they would have these devices later this year.
Also announced today was the ‘Pixel C’ which is the first Android tablet built end-to-end by Google. The Pixel C brings together the benefits of a full-size keyboard with the portability of a tablet. The tablet and keyboard attach magnetically, so it’s easy to switch between typing and using the touch screen.
Google also announced two new Chromecast devices. The new Chromecast looks different and is easier to plug into TVs with crowded ports. It supports the latest Wi-Fi standards and adapts easily to changing Wi-Fi conditions at home. There’s also the Chromecast Audio which is a small device that plugs into your existing speakers so you can stream your favorite music, radio and podcasts over Wi-Fi.
