Google I / S 2025: how to look and what to expect

The annual conference of Google’s E / S developers is almost there, and all eyes will be on the opening of the company. But for the first time in years, we know that there are few reasons to hope for major announcements on the Android operating system, from Google Already did this last week.

Instead, we expect the opening of i / s to be (almost) everything about AI, although we know that there will be a little time devoted to XR.

When Google E / s will occur and where you can watch

If you plan to look, make sure you book ample time. The E / S keys generally work for a few hours, and even without new Android announcements, we would touch on the same time.

Like my colleague Allison Johnson Put it during the weekendThe fact that this year’s E / O speech focuses on AI should not surprise. The Gemini and his fellows dominated the event for two years in progress, and Google is involved in an AI race with Openai, Meta, Microsoft, etc. In fact, the E / S demonstrated one day after Microsoft construction developer eventWhich should make an interesting consecutive comparison.

It is likely that Google will have a lot to say about the new features of the Gemini to come on phones and other devices, the updated models with increased power and, we hope, some ambitious Astra project Updates that will show us the tart side in the sky of the work of Google’s AI.

There will also be XR

I won’t be entirely About AI, as Google has already promised updates on Android XRAlso. The extended reality of the company did not obtain a lot of time during the Android program last week, other than the confirmation of the support of the Gemini to come, but a closing From Android’s head, Sameer Samat suggested that we will see at least more in Google smart glasses prototypes.

Samsung always says that it is Moohan Android XR headset project will be launched this year, so this could be Google’s last chance to detail the software side before Samsung steals the spotlight.

Do not expect pixel or nest equipment

Google used E / S to launch pixel phones and nest Smart Home Tech, but it no longer seems to want the idea. If we were going to hear about new phones, tablets or laptops, it would probably have happened last week, and Google would like nothing to distract from its AI updates. There is a chance that we see new XR equipment, but you should not expect it to be beyond.
