YouTube has just revealed details on how it will broadcast Coachella next week, including support for multiview, 4K streams, and even a feed shot by Google Pixel.

In addition to Gemma 4, Google today also detailed Gemini Nano 4 for Android.

As the ongoing RAM/storage crisis continues to send shockwaves through the tech industry, a new report says that smartphone price hikes are “inevitable” while also further pointing out that entry-level phones are the hardest hit.

We’ve seen a handful of Pixel 11 leaks, being handed out in order from smallest to largest device. Where every other Pixel 11 iteration has changed in some way, the Pixel 11 Pro XL shows almost no alterations in this leak. This first look shows CAD renders of Google’s next largest release.

Google is finally giving users the option to change their Gmail address without deleting their account or making a new one, and it’s so easy to do.

Google’s Quick Share has been an important part of Android for a few years now, but it still has a few hidden tricks, including the ability to trigger sharing by simply tapping the phone you want to share to.

YouTube is ending testing for its conversational “Ask” AI feature on TVs and rolling it out to all users soon.

The monthly “Google System Release Notes” primarily detail what’s new in Play services, Play Store, and Play system update across Android phones/tablets, Wear OS, Google/Android TV, Auto, and PC. Some features apply to end users, while others are aimed at developers.

After detailing the “advanced flow” for sideloading earlier this month, Google is opening the Android developer verification process to developers today.

YouTube for Android is rolling out support for Android Auto but, before you get too excited, keep in mind that what you can actually do with it is rather limited.

Google finally announced its long-awaited “advanced flow” for enabling sideloading from unverified developers last week, set to roll out later this year to all Android phones. It addressed a lot of the concerns we had with the future of installing third-party APKs, but that’s not to say it delivered every answer under the sun. Thankfully, a new FAQ video is going a long way in filling in some of the gaps, including confirming you won’t need to repeat this process when you get a new phone.

YouTube has certainly proven itself to be a bit of a pain for viewers lately, especially those members of its audience attempting to bypass ads. Today’s issue takes it to a whole new level, though, as some users are struggling to use the site without seeing repeated CAPTCHAs blocking access to videos.

Google shared today that Android and Chrome have set “new performance records” for mobile web browsing.

2026 and the ongoing RAM/storage crisis continues to put out a rough outlook for the year ahead, and Android brands are bearing the brunt of that with a new forecast revealing that Android shipments could drop as much as 15% this year to the iPhone’s 2%, but there is a bit of hope for Google Pixel.

Sideloading has been a key part of Android since the beginning, not only delivering a lot of flexibility to Android, but also a sense of openness and freedom. After Google announced it would make major changes to sideloading, the community (somewhat understandably) panicked, but as Google has now shown exactly how its new sideloading flow on Android will work, I’m not only happy to see that sideloading isn’t going away at all, but that Google’s compromise is as close to perfect as I think we can reasonably get.

Later this year, Google is introducing new Android developer verification. For power users, Android will offer an “advanced flow” to disable the verification requirement.

People appear to be holding on to their Android devices longer – even longer than iPhone users during a year where companies paid the most to customers trading used phones.

Following a near six-year hiatus, Fortnite for Android is officially returning to the Google Play Store later this week following the conclusion of the long-running Google vs Epic Games court case.

The 2026 World Cup kicks off in several months across several streaming services, and FIFA has declared YouTube an official partner of the competition. Here’s what that means.
