While dropping a main image of what is still technically an unnamed product might appear a bit strange, Google has actually done this previously. In 2015, following a heap of leakages and reports relating to the Pixel 4, Google launched a main picture of the phone in June, which was more than four months prior to the phone got fully exposed later in October.
In a method, Google is sort of verifying all the tech sleuths constantly searching for tips and leaks for upcoming products, due to the fact that who understands, if adequate information gets uncovered, Google might simply launch even more details about upcoming products. Until then, were simply going to have to wait up until later this fall when we anticipate Google to reveal more information about its next wise speaker and everything else the company has in store.
Obviously the feline runs out the bag because after images from regulatory filings illustrating Googles next clever speaker leaked previously this week, Google decided to launch a main teaser of the Nest groups upcoming device.

As details from the regulatory filings suggested, the next Google Home includes a set of indicator lights hidden behind its material outside, while the blue variation (which seems the exact same shade currently offered on the Nest Mini) shows that it will most likely share a few of the very same pastel color options utilized on other Nest products. That stated, every year Google tends to include a couple of new colors to its product lineup (blue and coral were the main additions in 2015), generally throughout its fall product showcase, so dont be surprised if some brand-new colors make a launching later on this year.
While Google made no mention of the devices official name, cost, or release date, just a glimpse at the image above essentially validates that the dripped gadget will certainly be the long-overdue replacement for the original Google Home, which initially went on sale way back in 2016.
Aside from confirming that a new Google speaker is on the way, Googles teaser (which consists of a brief supercut published below) likewise sheds light on some other aspects of the gadget. Sporting a rounded rectangle-shaped body covered in fabric, the next Google Homes design perfectly bridges the size space in between the Nest Mini and the Google Home Max while still maintaining a cohesive design language across Googles full series of wise speakers. Its a much-needed upgrade, as the initial Google Homes design– which sort of appearances like a futuristic air diffuser– hasnt aged especially well.
