New York City recently became home to the new Made by Google pop-up shop, which gives consumers a space to test out some of the most innovative and groundbreaking products the company has to offer. While there are no actual products for sale at the pop-up, the temporary space gives consumers a pressure-free environment to explore new technology.
The Google pop-up is located in the heart of New York's SoHo neighborhood and features various interactive spaces that complement the different devices. For instance, consumers can test out Google Home in a setting that resembles a real living room and kitchen or they can sit down in a 360-degree swivel chair to test out the new Daydream VR headsets. There is even a special lighting installation that showcases the low-lighting capabilities of Google's Pixel technology.
