Google’s New Pixel Studio Is Weirdly Obsessed With the iPhone

Pixel Studio launched on the Pixel 9 series last year, but the Pixel 10 Pro allowed me to spend time testing Pixel Studio using a more advanced generative AI model. The result is better quality images, a much deeper understanding of keywords and a wider range of image styles that can be created.

But its quality goes deeper, being now able to generate actual text instead of strings of nonsense as well as creating pictures of people — including photorealistic depictions of known faces like Taylor Swift and Queen Elizabeth II. 

We’ve tested the tool extensively across multiple phones and indeed multiple continents, and we’ve found some wild results — both good and bad, including finding out how weirdly obsessed Google’s AI is with the iPhone. 

Here then is a selection of the most stand-out images from Pixel Studio on the Pixel 10 range.

(Disclosure: Ziff Davis, the parent company of CNET, in April filed a lawsuit against ChatGPT maker OpenAI, alleging it infringed Ziff Davis copyrights in training and operating its AI systems.)
