The Pixel 8, made in India, is coming soon:
Google also recently announced that the first batch of Pixel 8 devices made in India have started rolling off production lines. The news comes at a time when the Android manufacturer is increasing its focus on India in a bid to replicate the success of premium offerings from Apple and Samsung.
Notably, this is the first time that Google is launching all the Pixel 9 devices, including the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Pixel Watch 3, and Pixel Watch 2 Pro in India. Last year, while Google had brought the Pixel 8, 8 Pro, and 8a editions to India, the company refrained from bringing the more expensive Pixel Fold.
