Google One has long been offered as a way to expand the storage across products like Drive, Gmail, and Photos, but Google has been pivoting it towards a focus on AI. And while that’s compelling for some, the real value in Google’s AI storage subscriptions is now coming from everything else – and it’s simply one of the best deals in tech today.
Following the introduction of a more affordable new tier, Google One’s AI Ultra plans have been a tiny bit confusing for those looking to switch, but Google is updating the process to make things a bit more clear.
To get more out of Gemini-powered features in first-party apps, Google offers AI Plus, AI Pro, and AI Ultra subscriptions. At I/O 2026 in May, the plans got updated usage limits.
Google is quietly preparing a new “AI Ultra Lite” subscription tier to slot between its $20 Pro and $250 Ultra plans, plus a dedicated dashboard for subscribers to see their remaining token budget.
With the launch of Gemini on Home, Nest Aware is no more. It’s being rebranded to Google Home Premium with an Advanced tier that unlocks the full set of “AI camera” capabilities.
Google One is seeing one of its plan options vanish, with the cost of adding more storage past 10TB immediately jumping by a whopping $200 – but that’s only what it looks like at first.
To date, AI Premium is how you access the latest features from Google. At I/O 2025, that subscription tier is being renamed to “Google AI Pro,” while we’re getting “Google AI Ultra” for $249.99 per month.
It’s not the dream of a full bundle, but some Google One subscribers will soon get a discount on YouTube Premium in the US. Meanwhile, YouTube is starting to test a handful of new features that subscribers can opt-in to.
