Google already has a Pixel 6 live stream channel up and running for the official Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro launch announcement event on October 19.
Google gobbled up HTC’s phone production department and started charging quite a hefty sum for the Pixels that were anything but sold at cost given their specs. This strategy was again U-turned last year when it released affordable Pixels with budget to midrange prices.
When is the Google Pixel 6 October event?
- October 19 at 10AM Pacific/1PM Eastern time
Just as rumored before, Google will be holding its 2021 Pixel 6 launch event on Tuesday, October 19, at 10AM Pacific Time. That means that viewers on the East Coast will have to watch it on their lunch break while those poor souls in Europe will have to get the Pixels with their dinner.
We sincerely hope that, after months of teasing the unique Tensor chipset and camera set, as well as the Android 12 update, Google will announce an immediate Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro release for sale on the Google Store.
All Pixel 6 event announcements to expect
- Google Pixel 6
- Google Pixel 6 Pro
- Android 12 release to manufacturers
Needless to say, the stars of the Google Pixel October 2021 event will be the new iPhone and Galaxy killers, the Pixel 6 and its larger, more spec’d-out Pixel 6 Pro sibling.

Pixel 6 Pro camera quality to expect
As far as what will the new camera set bring to the Pixel 6 Pro, as the more interesting of the two models, look no further than the zoom, main and ultrawide picture and video samples below.
They are from a pre-production unit with non-final software, though, so don’t judge too hard just yet. It’s the first time Google is actually putting up-to-date camera hardware in a Pixel phone, periscope zoom included, so expect nothing less than greatness from the final retail units.
