Google Pixel 7 Features Are Coming to Older Phones

As per the latest news by Android Central, Google has recently introduced its all-new Pixel 7 lineup, including the Pixel 7 and the Pixel 7 Pro. The latest flagship mobile device of the renowned tech giant brings a couple of new features, along with some overall refinements.

Not to mention that the new Pixel 7 series rocks a more powerful chipset as Google stuffed it with its second-generation built-in chip, the Tensor G2.

Although the new chipset and other hardware upgrades are exclusive to the new Pixel 7 series, the same could not be said for its new software features.

A recent report by Phone Arena says that Google has revealed that some of the new features that first saw the shimmer of the spotlight on its latest flagship are arriving in its Pixel 6 series before the year ends.

The Pixel 6 lineup of Google includes three models, the entry-level Pixel 6, the Pixel 6 Pro, and the budget-friendly Pixel 6a. And all these variants are set to gain new features.

Which Pixel 7 Features Are Included?

Android Central notes in its story that one of the new features, which is set to arrive on Pixel 6 devices, is none other than the Clear Calling capability. The said functionality enabled the latest Google flagship to produce better-sounding audio in phone calls even if its users are in a noisy environment.

For instance, if you are taking a call on a windy street, the Clear Calling feature attempts to make your voice sound better, allowing the other end to understand what you are trying to say.

Besides improved phone calls, new Quick Phrases are also on their way to Pixel 6 devices. One of which is "silence," letting users mute their phones by simply saying the keyword. With this, users no longer have to touch their mobile devices when trying to ignore a phone call or a notification.

The upcoming feature update this December is upgrading the photography capabilities of the older Pixel phone. It brings the Guided Frames function, which provides audio and haptic guides. It also expands both Portrait and Night Sight modes.
