Here’s how to watch the Pixel 4 Made by Google event from today

Today’s was the day — we already got to see the Google Pixel 4 live from New York City. We’ve covered everything that was announced at Made by Google 2019, and the Pixel 4 with the Motion Sense gesture controls arrived alongside a Google Stadia release date, the Pixel Buds 2, Pixel Book Go, and the Nest Home Mini.

It’s an exciting list, and if you were unable to watch the reveals live, you can be sure you’ll have all the revelations for your perusal, at your leisure.

When is it?

The Made by Google started on October 15 at 7 a.m. PT or 10 a.m. ET. It streamed live from New York City, and ran for about an hour.

You’ll be able to watch it through the internet, but we will also had people on the ground keeping an eye on the proceedings and tweeting out the latest developments. Follow Mobile Editor Julian Chokkattu, Associate Mobile Editor Corey Gaskin, and Gaming Editor Felicia Miranda on Twitter to get their latest thoughts and hands-on experiences. We’ll also be sending out the latest stories and hands-on reviews through the Digital Trends and DT Mobile Twitter accounts, so make sure to follow both of those for up-to-date information.

Watching on YouTube

Made by Google '19

To watch the event, all you need to do is tune into the Made by Google 2019 livestream on the official Made by Google YouTube channel. The livestream is already up and waiting, so all you need to do is access that link on October 15 and you’re good to go.

If you’ve got a Chromecast plugged into a TV, then you can cast the video to your device — for that relaxed, laid back approach to major hardware launches. To do so, wait until the livestream is up and running properly on October 15, and tap the “Cast” icon in the YouTube app on your phone to get started.

Though the event has ended, there is a lot left to discuss. Are the Pixel Buds 2 as good as Apple’s Airpods? Why does Google’s new Pixel 4 look so different? What more can we expect from Google’s new initiative to be sustainable, and how will Google Assistant’s new speed affect user experience?

Google is about to make it a lot easier to customize your Pixel phone

When you first set up a phone, it's essentially the same as every other phone. Customizing it to suit you is part of the fun. Google looks to be making this process a lot easier with a redesigned "Wallpaper & style" page for Pixel phones and tablets.

The news comes courtesy of Android Authority, which first discovered the updated wallpaper app in the Android 15 QPR1 beta (with a full release expected in December).

Running out of storage on your Google Pixel 9? Here’s how to get more

The Google Pixel 9 is finally here, promising some impressive upgrades. The good news is that the minimum storage you get on this phone is 128GB. The bad news, following in the footsteps of an overarching industrywide trend, is that there is no native option for storage expansion — even if you have the Pixel 9 Pro or Pixel 9 Pro XL.

That’s a particularly undesirable status quo, especially for a phone that primarily caters to an audience hoping to click a ton of pictures and videos. However, there are still a few ways to make the best of the storage situation on the Pixel 9, even though it doesn’t support expansion via a microSD card.
Is there any hope?
