Google Pixel

Following yesterday’s introduction, Google is rolling out the “My Pixel” app to replace Pixel Tips.

In a wide-ranging interview with Bloomberg, Google says to expect refreshes to the design of Pixel phones every few years, while reiterating that a flip phone is not coming, and that its tablet ambitions are “paused.”

Making the move to a new phone can seem daunting, but this year, Google is making it easier than ever for potential iPhone converts to make the jump to Pixel 10 and switch allegiances over to Android.

Pixel phones are getting a new card carousel overlay when you launch Google Wallet with a double-tap of the power button.

Samsung and Google might utilize the same operating system for their respective smartphones, but the end user experience can vary wildly between both brands, and nowhere is that more obvious that with the default navigation bar layout in One UI. A future update, though, could allow Pixel users to recreate a Galaxy-style setup, no rooting required.

The next update to Android 16 is rolling out with the August 2025 security patch for the Pixel 6, 6 Pro, 6a, 7, 7 Pro, 7a, Tablet, Fold, 8, 8 Pro, 8a, 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, 9 Pro Fold, and 9a.

As we near the launch of Pixel 10, I’m getting some déjà vu with Google’s new devices, as the company has been pushing forward with its flagship phones for the betterment of the entire Android ecosystem, rather than just its own benefit. Sound familiar?

Android devices are not what they used to be. Eventually, they caught up to one particular fruit-themed OEM and then surpassed it in many ways. Still, habit is hard to break for some, and it seems like the overarching stigma is that Android phones are weak, susceptible, and terribly designed. At least, that’s what some are being told when buying an Android phone.

In just a few short weeks, Google will take the stage in New York to finally unveil the Pixel 10 series. Everything we’ve seen about these devices so far — and we’ve seen plenty — suggests a lineup that is, in some ways, frustratingly familiar to last year’s devices. There’s nothing wrong with a “tock” year, of course, where Google can catch its breath after last year’s massive leap in both presentation and build quality. But unlike with the standard Pixel 10, this year’s foldable might end up take the brunt of the blowback from this decision.

Through evidence spotted in the latest Android Canary release, it looks like Google is preparing a new Pixel feature that would let users theme their homescreen icons using AI as well as their own custom styles.

According to a new report, Google Pixel has settled into a #4 slot in the US smartphone market ahead of the Pixel 10 launch, though growth has cooled off a bit.

New findings show that Google is working on a redesign for the “Now Playing” widget on Google Pixel devices, adding more functionality and information to the lockscreen.

Google appears to be working on a new and fairly major update to its “At a Glance” feature on Pixel which will deliver new cards for sports scores, birthday reminders, and potentially even more.

If you’ve updated to Android 16 and noticed that your Google Pixel device is slower to wake up or get past the lockscreen, you’re not alone.

The first monthly update to Android 16 is rolling out with the July security patch for the Pixel 6a, 7, 7 Pro, 7a, Tablet, Fold, 8, 8 Pro, 8a, 9, 9 Pro, 9 Pro XL, 9 Pro Fold, and 9a.

Nothing’s new Phone (3) is the company’s self-described first “true flagship,” a designation that, personally, I think is a mistake. But it also brings up the question, if the Nothing Phone (3) isn’t a “true flagship,” is Google’s Pixel?

We’re not expecting the July 2025 Pixel update to start rolling out until next week, but Verizon’s changelog provides an early preview.

We’re likely less than two months away from the Pixel 10 series getting its long-awaited announcement, which means it’s high time for yet another Google leak.

A patent dispute in Japan has led to Google no longer being able to sell select older Pixel devices, and the company behind it is gunning for newer generations too.
