Everything announced at the Google I/O 2025 keynote
Today is one of the most important days on the tech calendar as Google kicked off its I/O developer event with its annual keynote. As ever, the company had many updates for a wide range of products to talk about.
The bulk of the Android news was revealed last week, during a special edition of The Android Show. However, Tuesday's keynote still included a ton of stuff including, of course, a pile of AI-related news. We covered the event in real-time in our live blog, which includes expert commentary (and even some jokes!) from our team.
If you're on the hunt for a breakdown of everything Google announced at the I/O keynote, though, look no further. Here are all the juicy details worth knowing about:
It's been a few years since we first heard about Project Starline, a 3D video conferencing project. We tried this tech out at I/O 2023 and found it to be an enjoyable experience.
Now, Google is starting to sell this tech, but only to enterprise customers (i.e. big companies) for now. It's got a new name for all of this too: Google Beam. And it's probably not going to be cheap. HP will reveal more details in a few weeks.
Google Meet is getting a real-time translation option, which should come in very useful for some folks. A demo showed Meet being able to match the speaker's tone and cadence while translating from Spanish.
Subscribers will be able to try out Spanish-language translations in beta starting this week. This feature will soon be available for other languages.

My Favorite Smartwatch Is Half Off at Walmart Right Now
My phone pings constantly from where it's plugged in across the room. But I've got my Galaxy Watch 4 on my wrist, so I can check to see who's pinging me, which app the notifications are from and whether it's important enough to merit my standing up and walking the dozen or so steps to unplug my phone and look, or just respond on my smartwatch (or swipe the notification away). Smartwatches are becoming an essential tech item, but most people don't need the latest and greatest version to get what they need. One of the best ways to buy a thoughtful tech gift without spending too much money? Choose a previous version of a current device, especially if the earlier model would work for you. So if you're searching for a cool gift for someone (or yourself), might I suggest my favorite smartwatch, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4? Thanks to a screaming deal at Walmart, the 40mm Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is only $99 right now. Why I love the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Sure, it's not the latest model of the Samsung Watch. That would be the Galaxy Watch 7 or Galaxy Watch Ultra. But it still has all the main features, including ECG, blood pressure monitoring, sleep monitoring, Google integration for most things and Samsung Health. I'm not a fitness fanatic, so I don't need all the latest tracking features or even the improved battery life and bigger screen size of the Watch 7, which has a list price of $300, but is going for just $209 right now if you want the upgrade. The Galaxy Watch 4 has the fitness tracking I need without being overly complex. (Though it has advanced workout tracking for six modes including running, rowing and swimming, if you like those auto-detected tracking features.) For everyday use, I can check my notifications and respond, take hands-free calls, track sleep and skip between songs when listening in Spotify. Oh, and check the time. If you're looking for a wearable, it's the one I'd recommend checking out before looking into the latest version of the Galaxy Watch series. One caveat: Some people have complained lately that their battery is depleting quickly. Samsung has advice on how to run a diagnostic on your watch and fix the issue. Why the Galaxy Watch 4 makes a fun gift The Galaxy Watch 4 isn't going to be a gift you give to the tech enthusiast in your family or an Apple fan, but it's perfect for anyone who wants a smartwatch but doesn't want all the bells and whistles, or someone who doesn't know what they want in a smartwatch. For more, here are our other favorite smartwatches. If you're looking to gift someone a new phone, CNET has rounded up the best deals on the Samsung Galaxy S25. If this isn't right for the person you're shopping for right now, check out our editors' picks for the best gifts for grads and the best gifts for Father's Day for more ideas.

Jony Ive's OpenAI device gets the Laurene Powell Jobs nod of approval
The mysterious AI gadget being created by OpenAI and former Apple design chief Jony Ive has been given the thumbs up from Laurene Powell Jobs. In a new interview published by The Financial Times, the two reminisce about Jony Ive's time working at Apple alongside Powell Jobs' late husband, Steve, and trying to make up for the 'unintentional' harms associated with those efforts. 'Many of us would say we have an uneasy relationship with technology at the moment,' Ive said, adding that working on the incoming AI device alongside OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is motivated by a sense that 'humanity deserves better.' In May, Ive said his latest work is driven by owning the 'unintended consequences' associated with the iPhone, alluding to smartphone-related concerns like users being addicted to screens and social media. Ive again acknowledged this, and says the collaboration with Altman has revived his optimism for technology. 'If you make something new, if you innovate, there will be consequences unforeseen, and some will be wonderful and some will be harmful. While some of the less positive consequences were unintentional, I still feel responsibility. And the manifestation of that is a determination to try and be useful.' Powell Jobs, who has remained close friends with Ive since Steve Jobs passed in 2011, echoes his concerns, saying that 'there are dark uses for certain types of technology,' even if it 'wasn't designed to have that result.' Powell Jobs has invested in both Ive's LoveFrom design and io hardware startups following his departure from Apple. Ive notes that 'there wouldn't be LoveFrom' if not for her involvement. Ive's io company is being purchased by OpenAI for almost $6.5 billion, and with her investment, Powell Jobs stands to gain if the secretive gadget proves anywhere near as successful as the iPhone. The pair gives away no extra details about the device that Ive is building with OpenAI, but Powell Jobs is expecting big things. She says she has watched 'in real time how ideas go from a thought to some words, to some drawings, to some stories, and then to prototypes, and then a different type of prototype,' Powell Jobs said. 'And then something that you think: I can't imagine that getting any better. Then seeing the next version, which is even better. Just watching something brand new be manifested, it's a wondrous thing to behold.'
