Google is testing a new zoom feature for images in search result snippets. Users hovering their mouse over an image will notice it zoom in slightly, which adds a dimensional effect that was not present before. This change was observed and reported by Sachin Patel, who shared videos on X showcasing the zoom effect. Other users have noted they cannot replicate this feature, indicating that it may still be in testing phases or being rolled out gradually.
Typically, images in Google search results remain static. However, Google is currently testing a new zoom feature that activates when a user hovers over an image, enhancing the dimensionality of search results.
