Exciting news for tech enthusiasts looking to get their hands on the latest Gemini Nano AI model from Google. Unfortunately, for those with older Pixel devices, like the Pixel 8, it seems that this mobile-friendly version of the powerful AI model will remain exclusive to the Pixel 8 Pro.<\/p>\n
Google recently confirmed this update on their Android Developers channel during an episode of The Android Show. The company cited \u201chardware limitations\u201d as the reason why Gemini Nano won\u2019t be available on the Pixel 8. However, they did mention a possible expansion to \u201chigh-end devices in the near future,\u201d so there is hope for users with premium smartphones to enjoy these AI features eventually.<\/p>\n
One key difference between the regular Pixel 8 and the Pro version is the amount of RAM \u2013 8GB compared to 12GB in the Pro model. This discrepancy likely plays a significant role in running Gemini Nano smoothly. Interestingly, MediaTek Dimensity 8300 and 9300 chipsets have been recently optimized for Gemini Nano, potentially opening up opportunities for mid-range non-Google devices to integrate these AI features as well.<\/p>\n
Currently, exclusive AI features found on the Pixel 8 Pro include enhanced capabilities in apps like Recorder, Gboard\u2019s Smart Reply, Video Boost, Night Sight in Timelapse mode, improved portrait light in Google Photos, and Photo Unblur. These features set the Pro models apart from regular Pixel devices, giving users a compelling reason to opt for the larger model.<\/p>\n
As we look ahead to future devices like the Pixel 9, it will be interesting to see if Google continues this trend of offering exclusive AI features on specific models. Will users have enough incentive to upgrade to the Pro version for these advanced capabilities? Stay tuned for updates at Google\u2019s next Made by Google event.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
