The new handsets are "packing more helpful Google features into phones backed by the power and speeds of 5G," said Google vice president Brian Rakowski. The announcement puts Google, for the moment, ahead of Apple in the 5G smartphone race, with a 5G iPhone widely expected to be unveiled in the coming weeks. The Pixel devices nonetheless serve as a showcase for Google and Android, integrating hardware and software and the newest Google applications. The launch comes with the global smartphone market struggling from the pandemic-induced economic crisis and with many consumers waiting for 5G devices. "The new Google TV experience brings together movies, shows, live TV and more from across your apps and subscriptions and organizes them just for you," said Google TV senior director Shalini Govilpai.
