Google Announces Annual I/O Developer Conference
Google has officially announced that its annual developer conference, Google I/O, is scheduled to be held on May 10th at Mountain View California’s Shoreline Amphitheater. Similar to last year’s format, the conference will host a small in-person audience, while the keynotes will be livestreamed for free.
Free Registration Opens Today
Registration for the event is free and now open. Interested participants can register through the link provided on the Google I/O website. To complete registration, you need to click on the lozenge-shaped button that says “Registration.” The registration process will enable you to stay informed about the schedule, content, and relevant developer news via non-spammy emails.
As a registrant, you will also have the opportunity to create a developer profile that will help you get the most out of the digital experience by saving and viewing content that’s relevant to you. However, please note that registration is open only to individuals who are at least 18 years old.
Access to Keynotes and Sessions
Registered attendees will have access to live or on-demand viewings of the keynote sessions, while on-demand sessions will be available to all. If you choose not to register, you can still view the keynotes and sessions, but you won’t get communications related to the event nor have access to the developer profile.
What to Expect from Google I/O 2023
This year, Google is expected to announce its upcoming device releases and give a preview of its latest software updates. We can expect Google to preview Android 14, and by May, the beta version of Android 14 should be available to Pixel users. We also anticipate learning more about upcoming devices like the mid-range Pixel 7a and the Pixel Fold, Pixel Tablet, and the Pixel 8 series.
The Pixel 7a is rumored to come with a 6.1-inch AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate and a 64MP Sony IMX787 image sensor behind the primary camera. It will also include an ultra-wide camera driven by the 13MP Sony IMX712 sensor. The device will be powered by the Google Tensor 2 SoC.
Additionally, Google may release the delayed Pixel March Feature Drop. This year’s conference is shaping up to be one of the most exciting events for developers and tech enthusiasts.
