Google talks about gaming on Pixel in recent training video for UK Sales Managers and Retail Sales Associates

Google’s Pixel 8 series has emerged not only as a powerhouse of photography but surprisingly as a gaming gem. The revelation comes from an intriguing YouTube video titled ‘Gaming with Pixel,’ where Google Lead Trainers Stacy and Nathan delve into the immersive gaming experience offered by the Pixel 8 series and Pixel Fold.

The Pixel 8 series boasts a stunning 120Hz display, a testament to Google’s commitment to delivering top-tier visuals. The advanced image processing prowess of Google Tensor G3 adds a layer of sophistication, promising a visual feast for gamers. As if that’s not enough, the Pixel Fold flaunts a captivating 7.6-inch unfolded screen, providing a canvas that enhances gaming immersion.

Curiosity piqued, I decided to put the Pixel 8 through its paces, transitioning from appreciating its camera to exploring its gaming capabilities. I dived into a gaming marathon, trying out popular titles like EA SPORTS FC Mobile Football, Call of Duty, and NFS No Limit.

To my surprise, the Pixel 8 exhibited remarkable stamina during extended gaming sessions. The adaptive battery, fueled by machine learning, demonstrated its prowess by intelligently prioritizing frequently used apps, ensuring sustained gaming joy. The only hiccup came when the battery level dipped below 20%, prompting a noticeable quick decline.

Perhaps the most commendable feat was the Pixel 8’s ability to keep its cool, quite literally. Unlike other smartphones that often heat up during gaming, my Pixel 8 maintained a consistent temperature, allowing for uninterrupted performance. It’s a game-changer, both literally and figuratively.

Delving into the specifics, Call of Duty delivered a consistently impressive 120fps on medium settings. The smooth gameplay experience was a revelation.

The secret sauce behind this gaming prowess might be Google’s discrete introduction of a graphical performance boost for the Pixel 8 series. TechDroider, a technology enthusiast, shared insights into the Pixel 8’s improved performance during Beta 1.1 of Android 14 QPR2.

The Pixel 8 series demonstrated its newfound capabilities by running Fortnite at a staggering 60fps with max graphics enabled. A far cry from its previous performance of a choppy 15fps, this improvement marks a substantial leap in the gaming domain.

While the specifics of performance enhancements for older Pixel models remain unclear, the evident boost in the latest series is undeniable. Google seems to have unlocked hidden potential, turning the Pixel 8 series and Fold into a gaming force to be reckoned with.
