Your Pixel phone is getting a big update - look for these 10 useful features

October's Pixel feature drop has arrived, and it's a pretty big one for Pixel phone users. Along with a sleek new OS -- Android 15 --Google phone users are getting 10 new phone features, including a suite of theft detection tools, private spaces to keep your sensitive info and photos safe, Audio Magic Eraser, upgrades to the temperature sensor, adaptive vibration, and more.
