Looking at the source, there are two arrays of image filenames specified between script tags on that page. One is "IMAGES", which is referenced by the JS elsewhere, and specifies overlayed over the rectangle.<p>The other, called EXTRAS, defined but not referenced elsewhere. It contains two entries, pointing at these images: <a href="https://madeby.google.com/static/images/tenfour/extras/002.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://madeby.google.com/static/images/tenfour/extras/002.j...</a> and <a href="https://madeby.google.com/static/images/tenfour/extras/001.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://madeby.google.com/static/images/tenfour/extras/001.j...</a>.<p>EDIT: oh, turns out this chap found it a while ago: <a href="https://twitter.com/hallstephenj/status/778033737040666624" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/hallstephenj/status/778033737040666624</a>
The new phones, the Pixel and Pixel XL are rumored to start at $649 for the smaller phone in the smallest memory configuration of 32gb. If true, this would mean the old Nexus line is well and truly dead and Google is taking the Apple approach to pricing. The Pixel brand is supposed to be premium at a premium price but currently has one product that fills that niche (the Pixel Chromebook) and one that doesn't (the failed Pixel C tablet that was repurposed from an abandoned Chrome OS branch to Android and launched barely functional).
I want...
1) a thicker phone, so I can grab it without the grip feeling precarious, and because it has a super-sized battery that easily lasts ll day and all night.
2) 2 cameras, yes, but specifically for depth perception, because omg all the amazing programs I could write!
3) waterproof, cause I like pulling my phone out in the rain and I'm a klutz.
The release date 10-4 is radio code for "understood":<p><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten-code" rel="nofollow">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten-code</a>
OKAY, so I get that they are promoting (probably) the camera/photos but with the photos filling the whole device, it almost makes you wonder if they are doing full color custom high DPI printed back covers (which would be good, since its so ugly if leaked pics are correct).<p>Or maybe they are going to be the first with a full slab of glass on the front with seamless edge to edge display (hah yeah right) - if its not either of those things, they just set people up for massive disappointment.
My guess? a smart phone that has machine vision built in? ten four? sounds like tensor flow - machine learning.<p>Interesting how the search box grew to include images...
I'm not sure if it's available in the US, but I bought a Samsung Galaxy A5 in Thailand for about $220 and with the level of quality it offers for such a low price, I have a very hard time understanding why anyone would pay 3-5x that for a "premium" phone: <a href="http://www.trustedreviews.com/samsung-galaxy-a5-review" rel="nofollow">http://www.trustedreviews.com/samsung-galaxy-a5-review</a>
If you were leading the Pixel phone effort what would you choose as the top three market differentiators?<p>To start one small thing I'd do is match Apple on the length of update support window.
My money is on:<p>+ something like PTT (push to talk) for video. Like Google Duo but with whatever high-level OS/hardware changes were required to make it work well.<p>+ edge-to-edge screen (thanks benmcnelly)<p>Why? Look at these people in the photos... They are hip (AF) and they are on scooters. They are mobile and care about appearances...
Is this about the Daydream VR headset?<p><a href="http://uploadvr.com/report-googles-daydream-vr-headset-called-daydream-view-debuts-oct-4th/" rel="nofollow">http://uploadvr.com/report-googles-daydream-vr-headset-calle...</a>
Whatever it is, judging by the source code, it seems to be called "TenFour". This redirects, too <a href="http://google.com/tenfour" rel="nofollow">http://google.com/tenfour</a>
