Inbox — A 9to5Google newsletter

Google morning. How many times have you written that before? I hope you had a lovely final weekend before Labor Day. This morning, I’m reading about tens of thousands of dollars’ worth of pristine Duck Hunt cartridges found in a box in Wisconsin, vigorously nodding my head along to John Oliver’s takedown of subscription bloat (but remember to subscribe to 9to5Google Pro anyway!), and wishing I had a 3D printer to create my dream storage and organization system.

As a reminder, Inbox is the tech newsletter that goes beyond the news cycle. We cover the most important 9to5Google stories from the last couple of days along with a few highlights from around the web. We publish every Tuesday and Thursday, and if you like what you read, please subscribe.

Good morning and happy Thursday. Today I’m donating to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library in her honor, reading about OpenAI’s incredibly powerful new AI inference chip, pretending to read Bill Gates’ 6,000-word essay about AI’s diverging futures, and actually watching this 2-hour deep dive of the upcoming Thief: The Dark Project Remastered instead.

Good morning and happy Tuesday. It’s the perfect time to read conspiracies about who exactly made the new Ox Alpha AI model, cry about coffee getting even more expensive, add this fun daily typing challenge to your morning routine, and listen to r/indieheads’ top 106 songs of 2010 to 2026.

Good morning and happy Thursday. We’ve got Pixel reviews galore, a new look at Insomniac’s upcoming Wolverine game, a crazy story about prolific phone scammers, and an updated version of Qwen 3.8 that I’ll be spending the next few days tweaking to my liking.

Good morning. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Today I’m reading more about Anthropic’s strange new text watermarking process, watching this historic Joshua Baéz home run recap on repeat, listening to the incredible new Phoebe Bridgers album, and getting stuck into Daniel Mason’s new satire, Country People.

Good morning. What a day yesterday — we had a huge Google hardware event, a total solar eclipse, a truly terrible AI album, and a couple of powerful, cheap AI models released that are sure to make Google sweat. Oh, and we’ve made it to 10 issues!

Good morning, hope you had a great weekend. Today I’m reading about Anthony Bourdain’s early years, depicted through the film Tony releasing this week, listening to Broken Social Scene’s new album after seeing them live this weekend, merging all my chats in the new version of Beeper, and finding open-source alternatives to everything at OpenAltFinder.

Tomorrow is basically Christmas for the 9to5Google editors. Google is announcing its latest batch of phones, tablets, and accessories (?). Based on the bevy of leaks over the past few weeks, I’m not anticipating any major surprises, but it’s still a good time to be a phone fan.

Good morning. Today I’m reading about just how sophisticated OpenAI’s Hugging Face hack really was, and how we may soon talk telepathically to our AI agents. I’m finishing up Silo season 3 and actively avoiding Ted Lasso season 4. I’m also trying out Ozlo’s new Sleepbuds 2, which apparently improve on the original’s sound quality and battery life.

Hey, how’s it going? I hope you had a lovely weekend. I was off last week, relaxing by the water, trying to finish a harrowing Booker Prize-winning novel about Australian POWs during WWII, rekindling my love for Love & Basketball, and playing far too much Lumines Remastered on my Fold 8. I also caught up on the latest drama between OpenAI and Anthropic and briefly considered switching to Deezer just so I could whip the llama’s ass one more time.

Hey there, it’s Thursday and that means we’re one day closer to the weekend. What are you up to? I’m currently deciding what color Fold 8 to buy, listening to the excellent (and weird) new Strokes album, and installing a 26B parameter Gemma 4 model on an 8GB MacBook Air.

Welcome to Inbox, I hope you had a lovely weekend. I’m on vacation this week, which means when I’m not failing to ignore my own inbox, I’m hoping to read a few books that have been sitting on my to-read shelf since the spring. What are you reading these days? Let me know by replying to this email or leaving a comment on the site.

Welcome back to Inbox, hope you’re enjoying your Thursday so far. Yesterday was a busy day for all of us and, mea culpa, I accidentally pressed send on a newsletter detailing the new Samsung foldables and wearables before it had been edited. As a pretty uncompromising editor myself, I can only believe this is the universe’s (or my former writers’) way of getting me back. Big L on my part.

Welcome back to Inbox, hope you had a nice weekend, particularly if you were cheering for a certain European football team. Given Argentina’s late-game heroics throughout the World Cup, I’m surprised there were no last-minute goals to tie things up, but I’ll admit that Spain was the better team throughout the match.

Still, if you’re in North America, I think this recent headline from The Onion is spot on: Nation Wakes Up From Strange Dream Where They Were Watching Soccer. For the rest of the world, the countdown to World Cup 2030 starts…now.

Welcome back to Inbox, hope you’re having a great Thursday so far. Yesterday, like many people in the northeast, I woke up to smoky skies and an acrid haze I could practically taste. Things definitely feel a little apocalyptic, but at least we have a World Cup Final match to look forward to this weekend. Go Argentina!

Welcome to the inaugural issue of Inbox by 9to5Google, a newsletter that’s also a love letter to the days when email (and email apps) were simpler and more opinionated.

To start, we’ll be sending issues on Tuesday and Thursday, but hopefully with time we’ll be able to add more daily sends. And don’t worry, Ben’s excellent Weekender newsletter will continue to be published every Sunday afternoon.

Inbox is the tech newsletter you should be able to read in 95 seconds or less. We’ll cover the most important story from the previous day along with a few highlights from around the web.

Ready? Let’s get started.

Since its launch in 2014, Inbox has been updated with many smart features to make managing email simpler. An update today adds a trio of new features to keep better track of Google Calendar events, shorten newsletters, and save links to view later.
