Google is improving its Pixel smartphones, especially the camera.
With a delay of a day, Google has released another update for the Pixel series and this time with relatively few bug fixes across the board. The improvements are still pleasing, especially when it comes to the camera, as there are quite a few improvements and not just on the Pixel 8 smartphone.
Google has optimized the camera
These are the camera improvements:
- Bug fix* for camera stability in certain situations when switching between different zooms[2]
- Fixed an issue with black halo artifacts appearing in the viewfinder when converting from photo to video mode at 1x zoom under certain conditions*[1]
- Fixed an issue where users were unable to re-expose the image after tapping anywhere in the viewfinder*[1]
The first point only affects the Pixel 8 series, points 2 and 3 affect all Pixel models.
Biometric enhancements only affect the Pixel 5a 5G, which we didn’t have. Otherwise there is nothing else in the changelog, but of course the latest security patches are also included in this update.
