  • Pixel 10, now in living color
    Jul 25 2025
    Welcome to episode 63 of Pixelated, a podcast by 9to5Google. This week, the Pixel leaks start comin' and they don't stop comin', as we break down the massive amount of Pixel 10 and Pixel Watch 4 leaks that continue to fall into our lap. Come for the conversation on which colors are doing it for us — and which aren't — and stay for the breakdown on why the Pixel 10 series just might arrive with Qi2 built-in. Plus, what's the deal with foldables, and is the Pixel Watch 4's new charger ridiculous, or ridiculously awesome?

    Jul 18 2025
    Welcome to episode 62 of Pixelated, a podcast by 9to5Google. This week, we're prepping for all things Pixel 10. With Made By Google officially announced for August 20th, we have less than five weeks to go until new Google hardware hits our desk. From phones to wearables, earbuds to foldables, there's a lot to look forward to — and frankly, it might all boil down to some software secrets we don't know much about yet.

  • Much Ado About Nothing
    Jul 3 2025

    Welcome to episode 60 of Pixelated, a podcast by 9to5Google. This week, Damien, Abner, and Will talk through Nothing's latest launch event, including the company's first flagship Android phone, the Nothing Phone (3). From its divisive design to its new Glyph Matrix display, there's a lot to take in, as the company seemingly pivots towards a more premium market.

    The trio also speculate on what Gemini's new four-color icon could mean for the future of Google as a company. Is this simply about aligning the logo with Google's standard theming, or does it tell us something about where Search and Gemini are headed in the future?
