Google smartphones as old as the Pixel 6 could soon receive some “exclusive” features from the Pixel 9 range, according to a new report., Google is now preparing to make both Reimagine and Auto Frame available on Pixel 6 , Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 series smartphones. The features haven’t yet been made available to users, but everything is now in place for Google to be able to flick a switch to activate them.

However, Google has previously opened Pixel-only features to the broader Android community. Magic Editor launched as a Pixel 8-series exclusive and is now available to all Google Photos users, including iOS. It’s reasonable to assume that the same might eventually happen to Reimagine and Auto Frame. This is possible because much of Magic Editor’s processing happens in the cloud, meaning you don’t need a powerful device to use it.

Sometimes you’ll get the option to turn a vertical photo into a horizontal one, or vice versa. It’s a shame Magic Editor doesn’t let you pick the specific format for your images as this would be a genuinely useful feature in my opinion.Our community is about connecting people through open and thoughtful conversations.
