Google has announced a lawsuit in the US that aims to take down “Lighthouse,” an organization that sends scam phishing texts such as the USPS scams that everyone seems to get.

Google has released a handful of new merch ahead of the holiday season, with the latest batch including a familiar Android plushie and more.

The Pixel 10 is about as good a smartphone as we’ve seen from Google yet, and you don’t have to take our word for it. Google’s seeing some unprecedented success on the back of its latest hardware launch, and while it’s a far cry from the likes of Apple and Samsung, it’s something worth getting excited about.

As part of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Google partnered with YouGov to commission a survey of over 5,000 smartphone users throughout the US, India, and Brazil, and their findings surrounding spam and scam texts might surprise you.

Alphabet today announced Q3 2025 earnings with $102.3 billion in revenue. These numbers range from July to September. This is Alphabet’s “first-ever $100 billion quarter.”

We’re due for some big changes coming to the Play Store after the results of the Google-Epic lawsuit, but an additional extension could give the company the final change to overturn the case it’s been looking for.

Following its launch earlier this month, the Google app for Windows is now prompting users to uninstall and reinstall the app to get continued updates.

It’s been about 2 months since the Galaxy Watch 8 and Watch 8 Classic were made available, and having used the Classic edition nonstop for that amount of time, I can tell you: it’s rare for me to like a smartwatch this much. When the Pixel Watch 4 comes out, it will need to make some serious noise to top it.

At Snapdragon Summit 2025, Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon had an on-stage conversation with Google’s Rick Osterloh. The SVP of Platforms & Devices had more comments about desktop Android, with Qualcomm also working on it and “incredibly excited.”

Outside of Chrome, Drive, and Quick Share, Google rarely makes native desktop apps with everything usually being based in the browser. That’s changing today with a new experimental “Google app for Windows.”

Google is getting a little more adventurous in the accessory game with a new rope wrist strap offering for Pixel phones, or any device, for that matter – just not the Pixel Fold series.

It’s been clear for some time that the “open web” as we’ve known it for years is in a tough spot, but Google has argued the opposite. In a court statement, though, Google’s own case argues that the open web is “in rapid decline.”

Google issued a brief statement on its blog this week, promoting the security of Gmail following erroneous online claims of mass warnings sent to end users.

It seems like the wait might be over, and the Google Pixel 10 series will get Qi2 magnetic charging, including the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.

We’ve got a little more than a week to go until the official unveiling of the Pixel 10 series, but like most of the company’s launches, it’s starting to feel like we’ll know everything about Google’s new smartphones before anyone actually walks out on stage. If you already know you’re buying a Pixel 10 but you’re stuck on color choices, this might be the leak you’ve been waiting for.

Following its loss in court against Epic Games, Google has just a few weeks to make some absolutely massive changes to the Play Store – and in effect, Android as a whole – despite the company’s goal to appeal the court’s decision.

The trial of Epic Games vs Google has been dragging on for years now, with the latest court case ending with the 2023 verdict not being overturned and, according to Tim Sweeney, the Epic Games Store on its way to the Google Play Store.
