Google I/O kicks off tomorrow at 10am Pacific. At that point, anything could happen, though, we’re somewhat confident in the sort of news Google will announce. There’ll be the usual developer-focused stuff with regards to Android, plus we’re sure there’ll be at least 30 minutes dedicated to AI in the keynote.
But what news are you hoping to see out of Google I/O this year? We could easily see Google tease the upcoming Pixel 9 lineup and even the Pixel Fold 2. Maybe we’ll get some fresh Wear OS announcements? The possibilities are endless.
Based on Google’s existing schedule for the developer conference, there’s a solid list of things we’re already expecting to see. There should be Wear OS 5 news, Google TV news, and more. Inside those sections is plenty of room for surprises. Pixel Watch Pro? Pixel TV? While that’s unlikely, it’s fun to pretend.
Shoot your thoughts below and get ready for the madness.
Full pixel 9 line release.
I still believe!!!
Other than something shiny with WearOS, the only thing I really care about is an announcement of RCS opening to other messaging apps beyond Samsung and Google Messages. Both are limited in customization and I’d prefer a more feature rich app have access to it like Textra.
I’m feeling a bit “meh” about I/O this year. Heck, I’m STILL waiting for Zoom Enhance that was announced 7 months ago. This is probably going to be mostly about AI which I haven’t really found all that useful thus far.
Doing away with glass backs on phones.
Why do people care about Pixel 9 Teases? The thing will be “Leaked” to death by tomorrow
Take your pick:
✅ Pixel 9 Lineup Tease (from Standard to Fold) – This option gets ahead of the leaks
✅ Pixel Watch 3/Pro
✅ Pixel Buds Pro (2024)
✅ Pixel Tags
✅ Chromecast with GTV (more robust)
❌ No More “AI” news
Do NOT play the drinking game using “AI” or “Gemini” (fastest way to get alcohol poisoning ☠️)

So you’re saying no to no more AI news?
I’m saying I don’t want any more… I’m already over it.
Too bad, more AI news …
Of course, this was made tongue in cheek.
Is it too much to hope they bring back Allo as an RCS client to rival iMessage and let Duo be standalone from Meet again? Or at least turn message categories back on for google messages?
Android 15 UI updates would be nice. Android Auto having a UI for YouTube controls.
Pixel Fold Sneak Peak
Something Amazing
Hope for Android Auto and Android 15 new features.
