Made by Google 2025 — Pixel 10, Pixel Watch 4 and what else could appear
Google sent out invites for the August 20 event last week, marking the second year in a row that Google's launch event would be held in the summer. Previously, Google held its product launches in early October, so that new phones, smart watches and other gear would be on hand for the holiday shopping season.
The event takes place at 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT / 6 p.m. BST on August 20, with Google holding the launch in New York. There's no details yet on a Made by Google live stream, though we'd expect that you'll be able to watch all the product news on Google's YouTube channel.
As to what the company plans to announce at Made by Google, there's not a lot of mystery as to potential product launches. New Pixel phones always seem to be the centerpiece of Google's hardware event, and there are enough rumors about the Pixel 10 — including teasers from Google itself — to suggest that a launch is imminent.
The timing of Google's August 20 event would also seem to line up with a Pixel Watch release, as Google readies an update to its smartwatch lineup. There's also talk of new accessories at Made by Google as well as a few surprise reveals.
We're now less than a month away from Made by Google 2025. Here's a look at all the possible announcements that we know of right now. Check back for updates as we get closer to the event itself.
The standard Pixel 10 phone could be the biggest announcement at Made by Google, as it appears to be the recipient of the most significant changes. Specifically, rumors point to the entry-level flagship gaining a dedicated telephoto lens after Google previously restricted that feature to its Pro phones.

Renders for the Pixel 10 certainly show off a third rear lens, though rumors suggest it won't match the resolution of the 48MP zoom camera on the Pro phones. Nevertheless, adding a telephoto lens would put the Pixel on par with the Galaxy S25, another phone in the Pixel's price range that offers a zoom camera.
The Pixel 10's ultrawide camera could also turn to a lesser sensor than the one inside in the Pixel 9.
As for other changes, we're expecting a Tensor G5 chip that ushers in new AI capabilities. Google's silicon might be moving to a 3nm process, which would mean a boost in performance and power efficiency over the 4nm Tensor G4, though another rumor posits that the G5 will also be a 4nm chipset.
While the Pixel 9a dropped Google's distinctive camera bar, that feature seems to be returning based on renders of the Pixel 10. We're once again expecting a 6.3-inch display.
Google dropped its own Pixel 10 teaser ahead of the August 20 hardware event, and the back of the phone in Google's image is consistent with all of these rumors — including the probability of a third rear camera appearing on that phone.
Besides the Pixel 10, expect a new batch of Pro models, with Google tipped to feature the same sizes as last year. That would mean a 6.3-inch Pixel 10 Pro, a 6.8-inch Pixel 10 Pro XL and a Pixel 10 Pro Fold with a foldable display similar to the design of the just-announced Galaxy Z Fold 7. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold's cover display could be larger, even if the main screen remains at 8 inches.
One display change set for the Pro models could be improved Pulse with Modulation Dimming, a change that would combat eye strain. Like the standard Pixel 10, the Pro models are expected to turn to the Tensor G5 chipset, with the added bonus of a vapor cooling chamber to help performance.
Google could also be lining up larger batteries for all three Pro models, addressing the longevity gap between Google's Pixel phones and leading flagships from Apple and Samsung.
Where Pixel phones debut, Pixel Watches often follow. The 2024 Made by Google hardware event saw the Pixel Watch 3 join the Pixel 9 announcement, so we wouldn't be surprised if the Pixel Watch 4 debuts alongside the Pixel 10 phones.
We could be surprised by new features, though as Pixel Watch 4 rumors haven't told us much about what to expect. Leaked renders have hinted at a thicker device that offers thinner bezels. The 41mm and 45mm sizes that debuted with the Pixel Watch 3 are set to return.
Other details have hinted at additional buttons and wireless charging support. And we'd count on the Pixel Watch 4 introducing new health and fitness tracking features to make the device a more appealing alternative to the Fitbit business Google is slowly winding down.
The Pixel Buds A-Series debuted in 2021 as a lower-cost version of Google's Pixel Bud wireless earbuds. A sequel could be coming at Made by Google in August, with a leak earlier this month promising new colors for what's being called the Pixel Buds 2a. A new color shade has also been tipped for the Pixel Buds Pro 2.
Apart from the new colors, there's been no rumors about new features for the earbuds, though leaked pricing indicates a €40 price hike in Europe from the current Pixel Buds A-Series.
The new version of Google's phone software arrived earlier than usual this year, meaning that the Pixel 10 phones will almost certainly ship with Android 16 pre-installed. The only question is whether a new software interface will arrive with it.
Google previewed Material 3 Expressive in May, showing off the fluid and bouncy look along with added personalization features. At the time, Google said the interface update would show up on software "later this year," and the August 20 Made by Google date would certainly fall in that description, even if the event figures to primarily focus on hardware.

More AI is coming to Samsung phones, but from unexpected places
Samsung was one of the first smartphone makers to go all-in with AI, thanks to the Galaxy AI stack. The Galaxy flagships didn't only ship the usual Gemini features, but also delivered their own unique AI experiences with tools like Now Bar, Now Brief, and Interpreter, among others. The company has no plans of stopping there. On the contrary, Samsung is eyeing deals with more AI companies to serve their AI tools atop Galaxy smartphones — at the cost of stealing some spotlight away from Google's Gemini. According to a report by Bloomberg, Perplexity and ChatGPT-maker OpenAI are two of those potential candidates. Why does this matter? 'We are talking to multiple vendors. As long as these AI agents are competitive and can provide the best user experiences, we are open to any AI agent out there,' Won-joon Choi, Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Samsung's MX Business, was quoted as saying. The shift is pretty interesting and something that is going to worry Google for multiple reasons. Recommended Videos As part of the Justice Department's antitrust case, it was reported that Google was paying an 'enormous' sum to Samsung. The fee was paid as a revenue share for onboarding paid subscribers, and also on a monthly basis for each Galaxy device that came pre-installed with the Gemini app. Interestingly, Samsung was also approached by other companies with similar offers, a list that includes names such as Meta, Microsoft, and OpenAI. How soon Samsung phones integrate AI products from other companies remains to be seen, but it would certainly be a big blow to Google. Over the past few years, Google executives have appeared on the launch stage for flagship Samsung devices. Moreover, as recently as its I/O event in May, Google heavily showcased Samsung's phones to reveal its upcoming Android and AI features. Samsung's status as the biggest name in the smartphone world is definitely a key part of the equation here. What's next for Google and Gemini? Google's Pixel phones are the best showcase of what AI (read: Gemini) can accomplish on a phone. But Google's smartphones are nowhere near as popular in terms of market reception and sales volumes are Samsung's Galaxy phones. That's why finding a prominent place for Gemini on Galaxy phones was such a big deal. But the challenge has already started right in the Android ecosystem. Perplexity, which offers a product that aims to compete with Google Search and Gemini, inked a deal with Nothing last year to offer its Pro subscription for free. Earlier this year, another deal with Motorola ensured that Perplexity would come pre-installed on Motorola devices. The company has also revealed that its AI-focused browser called Comet will soon land on Apple and Android smartphones. Perplexity was also rumored to be on Apple's potential list of partners as the company struggles to push Siri in the same league as ChatGPT and Gemini. As a stopgap solution, Apple inked a deal with OpenAI that allows Siri to seamlessly work with ChatGPT for advanced queries. With Samsung also exploring rival AI products for Galaxy smartphones, it would be interesting to see how aggressive Google gets at pushing Gemini on mobile devices.

Analysts turn heads with new Alphabet stock price target after earnings
Analysts turn heads with new Alphabet stock price target after earnings originally appeared on TheStreet. Alphabet's solid earnings have investors feeling more confident in Google again. The company posted earnings of $2.31 per share on revenue of $96.43 billion, both ahead of Wall Street analysts' forecast. Search brought in $54.19 billion, while total ad revenue climbed to $71.34 billion, up 10% from last year. YouTube ads came in at $9.8 billion, slightly above expectations. Cloud was a standout, with revenue jumping 32% to $13.62 billion. Alphabet recently struck a deal with OpenAI to power ChatGPT using Google Cloud. Alphabet also raised its 2025 capital spending forecast to $85 billion, up from $75 billion in February, citing 'strong and growing demand for our Cloud products and services.' CFO Anat Ashkenazi said spending will likely increase again in 2026. The upbeat report helped push Alphabet stock () closer to its all-time high. Shares closed at $194.08 on July 25, up more than 13% over the past month. That mirrors a broader bounce in tech stocks as optimism grows around AI and cloud. So far this year, however, Alphabet shares are still trailing the market, up just 1.91% compared to the S&P 500's 8.62% gain. Analysts raise Alphabet's stock price targets Alphabet's latest earnings beat has prompted a wave of price target hikes from Wall Street analysts, though opinions split on how much upside is left. Bank of America analyst Justin Post raised his price target on Alphabet to $217 from $210 while maintaining a buy rating, following the company's better-than-expected second-quarter analyst highlighted that both Cloud and Search outperformed expectations, calling them 'a bright spot' in what he described as 'another strong' quarter that suggests AI use is growing the market. "Another stable qtr for Search results increases our confidence in the AI transition and should ease concerns on a potential revenue reset," the analyst wrote. "We acknowledge growing users of OpenAI but think Street could be underappreciating potential AI driven upside for Search (more use, better ads) and Cloud," he added. JPMorgan raised its price target on Alphabet to $232 from $200 and reiterated an overweight rating, according to The firm believes Alphabet's AI-driven demand and accelerating backlog make Google Cloud a "bigger driver of the bull case going forward." Other firms also lifted their targets following the earnings beat, though with a more cautious tone. Stifel raised its price target on Alphabet to $222 from $218, citing solid performance across Search, YouTube, and Cloud. However, the firm doesn't expect much follow-through in shares due to lingering concerns about Alphabet's long-term AI position and the DOJ overhang. UBS bumped its target to $202 from $192, calling the quarter Alphabet's 'cleanest' in a while, with strong fundamentals supporting earnings growth. Still, the firm kept a neutral rating, pointing to pressure on the stock's valuation from unresolved regulatory risks and rising competition in Search. Google still faces pressure Despite Alphabet's strong earnings, concerns around regulatory and competitive threats still exist. The company is currently facing a major antitrust lawsuit from the U.S. Department of Justice. In early August 2024, Judge Amit Mehta of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia accused Google of illegally maintaining a search engine monopoly by using exclusive agreements with device makers like Apple () .The DOJ is now pursuing remedies that include forced divestitures of Chrome and Android. The case is still pending, but could lead to structural changes or costly settlements if the DOJ prevails. Mehta said he aims to rule by August, Reuters reported. Beyond regulatory headwinds, Alphabet is also under mounting pressure from emerging AI competitors. More Wall Street Analysts: Veteran analyst drops surprise call on Tesla ahead of earnings Best Buy analyst, focused on earnings growth, reworks stock price target Microsoft analysts reboot stock price targets ahead of Q4 earnings As generative AI reshapes how users find information, traditional search is being challenged by AI tools like ChatGPT. These platforms offer more conversational responses, potentially reducing the need for users to 'Google.' There's also a risk that trade tensions could curb advertiser spending on Google's platforms, potentially impacting revenue growth. But when asked about the outlook, Alphabet's Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler said it was too soon to make any calls. 'I think it's really too early to comment on anything happening in the second half of the year,' Schindler turn heads with new Alphabet stock price target after earnings first appeared on TheStreet on Jul 26, 2025 This story was originally reported by TheStreet on Jul 26, 2025, where it first appeared.
