Leaked Pixel 8a promo video shows Google AI features in action

Google Pixel 8a AI features leak

• This Pixel 8a marketing video by Google leaked by OnLeaks (via MySmartPrice) shows the Google AI branding from the get-go.
• The first feature showcased is Best Take. This feature lets you choose a different facial expression for people in the current photo. It picks their expressions from the set of recently captured burst photos. We already have this on select Pixels within Google Photos > Edit > Tools > Best Take.
• Next up, we get to see the Circle To Search feature in action. Again something we already have on certain Pixels and Galaxy smartphones. This lets you trigger a search for anything on the screen by simply circling that thing using your finger. You can activate Circle To Search by long-pressing the home button or navigation handle.

• The next feature on the exhibit is Live Translate. It must be evident from its name that it shows you real-time translations for foreign language audio and conversations. You can also point at a text to see its translation. In current Pixels, it is present within Settings > System. It is also available on select Galaxy devices too.
• The video then shows us the Audio Magic Eraser, which lets you selectively tune out different background noises from video clips. It is also present inside the Edit menu in Google Photos on select devices.

Last but not least, we get to see the Pixel 8a in white, black and blue colours at the end of the video. This also matches previously leaked renders and design tips we had got. The phone’s expected to launch in May.
