I'm a Chinese-American journalist in Hong Kong, covering consumer tech in Asia. Before focusing on this exciting beat, I was a general culture writer and editor with bylines in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Sports Illustrated, New York Magazine, among others.

Ever since its debut, Google’s Pixel series has always handled smartphone photography differently from other brands, particularly Android ones. While the likes of Samsung, Xiaomi and Huawei chased better and better hardware with more cameras, more megapixels, larger sensors, Google put out relatively modest hardware, and instead let its software handle the bulk of the work. Google’s view was that software was more important than hardware when creating a digital image.
The Pixel 8 Pro does indeed feel very smart. If I have a news article open on Chrome, I can ask the phone to read the article aloud to me, in English or another language; or I can have the phone summarize the article. It takes about 30 seconds, and sometimes the summarized cliff notes miss some important details, but it works well enough most of the time.
But the most impressive parts of the Pixel 8 phones’ new A.I. power is generative AI, which is the ability to create text and even image files from nothing. This is most notable in the new Magic Editor, which allows me to remove objects from a photo, and then the phone will use generative A.I. to create entirely new pixels in place of the erased item.
