Following last week’s launch at I/O 2025, Google is expanding access to Veo 3 in the Gemini app and Flow, while the Google AI Ultra subscription is coming to more subscribers.

Google today reached out to Pixel Superfans in the UK about a “pre-launch event” this June for the Pixel 10 series and other “upcoming devices.” It does not suggest that Made by Google 2025 is happening any earlier this year.

One of the biggest problems around flip phones has long been the compromise that comes in its form factor. Lesser cameras, smaller batteries, worse performance, and so many more are par for the course for these devices. But with the new Motorola Razr Ultra, we’re getting a device that tries to solve all of those problems and mostly succeeds, but it comes at a cost.

Your Friday afternoon edition of the best Google Play app deals are now ready to roll. Alongside the Android apps, today we are also tracking deals on the most affordable new Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE as well as Anker’s latest display-equipped 140W 4-port wall charger, the brand new Samsung The Frame Pro smart TVs, and this Samsung Woot sale with up to $850 off monitors. As for the apps, highlights include Arcane Vale, Rotaeno, Dune: Imperium Digital, and more. Head below for a closer look. 

This month, Google Wallet on Android phones began requiring that you authenticate to even open the app. At the same time, some Wear OS users were prompted for their PIN before every Google Wallet transaction. This was a bug and has now been resolved.

Today’s best deals are joining the ongoing $200 price drop on the Galaxy Watch Ultra and ongoing discounts on the S25 Ultra, starting with the most affordable new Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE down at $393 and the fresh new Woot Samsung monitor sale with deals at up to $850 off. We also have the new The Frame Pro smart TVs at up to $300 off alongside deals on Anker’s latest display-equipped 140W 4-port wall charger, up to $220 off the Sonos Ace wireless ANC headphones, and the official launch of Arc’s sweet metal Galaxy S25 bumper cases. All of that and more awaits below in today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break.

According to a new report, next year’s Galaxy Tab S11 series is going to be bringing some battery upgrades, at least for the largest model, while also reviving a “base” model.

Despite never being a major player, Sony has continued producing its Xperia smartphone lineup for years now, but the company has reportedly decided to stop manufacturing those devices for itself.

Samsung is seemingly struggling to find chip buyers for 3nm chipsets due to low yields, as the company enters its third year in production. This comes as Google has shifted to purchasing its upcoming Tensor G5 SoCs from TSMC instead.

When you think of phone cases, you probably think of something that covers up your entire device. That’s not what “Arc” does, though, with a special case that leaves most of the device exposed and focuses protection on the most crucial areas. Starting today, Arc cases are available for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and you can also get them for the Pixel 9 series too.

As of May (I/O) 2025, Google offers the Gemini app in three tiers. Many Gemini app features are available for free, while paying $19.99 per month for Google AI Pro (which includes 2 TB of storage) unlocks a lot more. Google AI Ultra at $249.99/month gives you everything else, including cutting edge capabilities.

The Phone by Google app is moving closer to a redesign of the incoming call screen that lets you pick between “Single tap” or “Horizontal swipe.”

Last year, Gmail for Android and iOS introduced a summarize feature, and Gemini can now surface summary cards automatically.

With Wear OS 6, Google is finally addressing how most parts of the interface, like media controls, lack an always-on display (AOD).

Google has announced that Lens is coming to YouTube Shorts, starting with a beta that’s going live now.

Following the announcement at I/O 2025 last week, Google is more widely rolling out Gemini Live camera and screen sharing to the iPhone and iPad app.

Recently, Google has changed the legacy “Find your phone” method that some Android owners have used to ring their lost or misplaced phone. In short, people should now use the new Find Hub experience.

With One UI 8 finally available in its earliest form, Samsung’s foundation has been laid for the next few updates until the final release. This update comes as Android 16 QPR1 launched a week prior, showcasing some of Google’s highly anticipated design changes. So, how do they compare? Let’s dig a little deeper.
