After pulling Wear OS 5 for older devices in September and not releasing anything last month, Google is rolling out latest Pixel Watch, Pixel Watch 2, and Pixel Watch 3 update with the November 2024 security patch today.

Google today is rolling out Android 15 QPR2 Beta 1 for Pixel devices.

With Android 15 QPR2 Beta 1, Google is overhauling Do Not Disturb with customizable “Modes.” You can “Minimize distractions and take control of your attention with modes for sleep, work, driving, and everything in between.” 

As teased in August, Gemini is coming to Google Home, starting with “AI Camera Search” and “Help Me Create.”

While we wait for the stable QPR1 release in December, Android 15 QPR2 Beta 1 is here for Pixel devices.

Ahead of a bigger Black Friday sale, OnePlus has several discounts already available including a killer deal on the OnePlus Open which brings the foldable down to just $1,199.

After a closed beta program, the anti-AI camera replacement Zerocam is now available on Android via the Google Play Store.

Back in March, Waymo began opening up to the public in LA. The autonomous Waymo One service is now available to “anyone in Los Angeles.”

After successfully launching the idea of a wireless Android Auto adapter, the original AAWireless seems to be going away as its sequel becomes more broadly available.

In years past, every deep dive into Android has unearthed a wealth of new functions, features, and alterations. So, what is causing Android updates to feel smaller than ever?

With version 131, Chrome for iOS is picking up a handful of new integrations with other Google services like Drive and Maps. Most are already available in the Android browser.

Microsoft has been… let’s say “aggressive” when it comes to trying to get Chrome users to give Microsoft Edge a shot, and its latest effort is a huge new pop-up that tries to get users to let Edge copy data, such as open tabs, from Google Chrome.

As announced at the end of last month, Gemini’s Google Home Extension is now seeing wider availability this week.

It’s often said that an update is “long-awaited,” but it couldn’t be more true in this case. Samsung’s One UI 7 update is supposedly right around the corner, but the first version won’t come with some of the most anticipated AI features.

The Nothing Phone (2a) is getting a new Android 15 beta update that, among various fixes and improvements, also brings the launch of Nothing OS 3.0’s new “Shared Widgets.”

After several new takes since Android’s “The Bot” mascot came to the Google Store in the US, it’s the turn of those of us located elsewhere as the collectible figures are now available in the UK.

Following the other three phones in the series two months ago, repair parts — including the inner screen — for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold are now listed on iFixit.

Amid Google’s ongoing pre-Black Friday deals, Best Buy has an exceptional discount on the Pixel 9, offering up to $350 off the 256GB model.

Display-less smart glasses with a camera will probably be the most imminent form factor for augmented reality. The world-facing camera and other electronics will only get smaller so they’ll probably approach regular — albeit of a thicker style — frames sooner than later. It’s not hard to imagine existing wearers of glasses to switch and get the benefits of an always-ready camera for both pictures and visual search queries (Google Lens), as well as headphones.
