Google Pixel 10 Pro models and Pixel Watch 4 just revealed in full by trusted leaker
Earlier this week, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold was revealed in leaked images, and Google itself revealed the base Pixel 10 amidst an avalanche of leaks. Another rumor tipped the Pixel 10 series as getting heavier possibly thanks to new magnets.
Blass' images give us some of our first looks at the Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL as well as the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2A.
If you don't want to wait for the August 20 Made By Google event, here's what they look like.
All of the images show the devices in what appears to be the rumored Moonstone colorway, a slate blue tint.
This year's Pro models should be the same size as last year's model with 6.3-inch and 6.8-inch displays. The displays should be improved by Pulse with Modulation Dimming, a change that should help with eye strain.
The Pixel 10 Pro phones might feature bigger batteries and magnets for Qi2 charging, which now supports 25W charging. Plus, both phones will likely be powered by Google's Tensor G5 chipset.

Typically, when Pixel phones launch, so do Pixel watches. So, we expect the Pixel Watch 4 to launch alongside the Pixel 10 series.
Unlike the handsets, we haven't seen much about the Watch 4 beyond some leaked renders. Those hinted at a thicker watch with thinner bezels.
There may be additional buttons and wireless charging. We do expect the Watch 4 to introduce new health and tracking features, especially as Fitbit continues to slowly die.
Google launched the Pixel Buds A-series in 2021 as a more budget-friendly version of its Pixel Bud wireless earbuds.
Like the Pixel Watch 4, we have yet to see much in the way of rumors or leaks regarding the Buds 2A beyond one in early July claiming new colors: Hazel, strawberry, iris and fog light.
They also might see a price hike, but how much is unclear.
All four devices should debut on August 20 during the next Made by Google Event. We expect to also see the standard Pixel 10 and the foldable Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
Google already highlighted Android 16 earlier this year, but we should hear more about the operating system and how it will integrate with the Pixel 10 lineup.
Google previewed Material 3 Expressive during I/O 2025. At the time Google promised the UI update would arrive "later this year." Made by Google in August is as good a time as any.

Google backpedals on plans to totally kill this legacy service
It's hard to believe, but Google launched its URL Shortener tool all the way back in 2009. Although the tool was shut down in 2018, Google confirmed that URLs would continue to redirect to their intended destinations. However, the tech giant announced last year that it would stop supporting those links after August 25, 2025. That was the plan anyway, but the company has since had a slight change of heart. Google has updated the blog post where it announced the shutdown of Google URL Shortener. In the update, the Mountain View-based firm states that it has reconsidered discontinuing support for all URLs. Despite claiming earlier that 99% of these links had no activity in June, Google says it received feedback that some actively used links are still embedded in countless documents, videos, posts, and more. As a result of the input it received, Google declares it will adjust its approach to preserve actively used links. This isn't a complete about-face, however, as the company still plans to shut down some URLs. The tech giant says it will instead target only inactive links: Nine months ago, we redirected URLs that showed no activity in late 2024 to a message specifying that the link would be deactivated in August, and these are the only links targeted to be deactivated. If you get a message that states, 'This link will no longer work in the near future', the link won't work after August 25 and we recommend transitioning to another URL shortener if you haven't already. Google confirms that active links will be preserved and continue to function like normal. You'll be able to check if your link will remain active by clicking on it. If that link redirects you without a message, it should be safe.

After Surging 15% in 1 Month, Does Alphabet Stock Have More Room to Run After Blowout Earnings?
Key Points Alphabet continues to deliver impressive results despite concerns that its dominant market share in search is under pressure. Google Cloud is growing margins. Alphabet is accelerating its capital spending. 10 stocks we like better than Alphabet › Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) was so undervalued that it was the only "Magnificent Seven" stock that was cheaper than the S&P 500 in terms of the forward price-to-earnings ratio. But then, Alphabet shot up 15.2% in the month leading up to its second-quarter earnings report. Stocks that run up into an earnings print will often give up some of those gains unless the report was exceptional. But Alphabet continued to climb higher after it reported earnings on July 23 -- a sign that Wall Street liked what it saw. However, it's best not to take the market's reaction for granted. Here's where Alphabet stands, where it could be headed, and if the growth stock is a buy now. Google Search and Gemini are holding their own The primary reason Alphabet has been undervalued relative to other mega-cap growth stocks is a lack of conviction that its investments in artificial intelligence (AI) will yield sufficient returns to offset the potential decline in its existing core segments. Alphabet has numerous moving parts, including Google Search, YouTube, Google Maps and Waze, Android, devices such as Pixel and Chromebook, Gmail and Google Workspace, Google Cloud, and "Other Bets" like Waymo. Despite a diversified lineup, the weight of Alphabet's success is still carried on the shoulders of Google Search. In Alphabet's latest quarter, the company booked $96.43 billion in revenue, a 14% increase year over year (YOY). Google Search revenue came in at $54.19 billion -- an 11.7% increase YOY. Google Search is not declining; it is growing nicely and remains an integral part of the broader business despite worries that rival search and chatbot platforms would be eating into its market share. The misconception that Alphabet is lagging behind AI may finally be changing. Not only are Google Search and the rest of Alphabet's services doing well, but Alphabet's AI investments are producing impressive results. Gemini, the company's Chatbot, is powered by Google DeepMind. Gemini is multimodal, meaning it can process text, images, video, audio, and code. Gemini has 450 million monthly active users -- a 50% increase from the first quarter. For context, reports indicate that OpenAI's ChatGPT reached 800 million weekly active users in July. Alphabet's ecosystem has been expanding in the image-to-video market. On the second-quarter earnings call, Alphabet said that Veo 3, its video generation model, has produced over 70 million videos since May. Alphabet AI tools have free, basic versions, and more advanced subscription services that can be bundled with other offerings in Google One on a single customer and enterprise scale. So, investors should closely watch how Alphabet continues to monetize these tools and determine if they have the potential to eventually contribute to the company's bottom line. Google Cloud is thriving Google Cloud remains a distant third behind Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. But it's still a value-adding piece in Alphabet's portfolio. Google Cloud revenue jumped 32% in the recent quarter as Alphabet rolled out a flurry of AI infrastructure and generative AI solutions for customers. In the past, Alphabet's advertising, subscription platforms, and devices have acted as cash cows and were used to fund Google Cloud and Other Bets. But Google Cloud's profitability has been improving despite aggressive investment. In the recent quarter, Google Services generated a 40.1% operating margin while Google Cloud had a 20.8% operating margin, which is a lot higher than the 11.3% operating margin in the second quarter of 2024. Alphabet is proving that it can keep expanding Google Cloud since it is the company's fastest-growing segment by revenue, while also allowing Google Cloud to continue to the bottom line. Alphabet is so optimistic about the success of its AI endeavors and cloud that it is boosting its 2025 capital expenditures (capex) budget to $85 billion. Alphabet's second-quarter capex was $22.4 billion, and around two-thirds of that capex was invested in servers, and one-third went to data centers and networking equipment. Alphabet is far from a stalwart that is past its prime. The success is reflected in Alphabet's results and its investments in technical infrastructure. Alphabet can afford to ramp spending without compromising its balance sheet or profitability. Alphabet is still a great value Alphabet isn't as dirt cheap as it used to be, but the stock is still undervalued because its earnings continue to grow fast enough to keep a lid on its valuation. Over the last three years, Alphabet's stock price has roughly doubled, but earnings have also soared 86.5%. So given the solid earnings growth, Alphabet's price-to-earnings ratio remains compressed at just 20.6 -- a discount to its 10-year median of 28.6. When I look at Alphabet, I see a company that is showing measurable progress in AI, spending that is paying off, resilience in its legacy cash cows like Google Search and YouTube, and growth in cloud computing. All told, Alphabet checks all the boxes of a foundational growth stock to buy now. Should you invest $1,000 in Alphabet right now?

Some goo.gl URLs will live to fight another day
Google's shortened URLs are the horror movie monster of the Google Graveyard: They keep finding a way to stay alive. On Friday, the company said links that don't show the above warning will work for the foreseeable future. In 2018, Google cut off the ability to create new shortened links. But it kept existing URLs active as a courtesy to those who relied on them. Then, a year ago, the company said its rival would shut down completely on August 25, 2025. That appeared to be the final nail in the coffin. Not so fast. That brings us to Google's change of heart today. "We understand these links are embedded in countless documents, videos, posts and more, and we appreciate the input received," the company explained. You'll know yours is shutting down if it currently shows a warning message. ("This link will no longer work in the near future.") If it redirects to the destination without that detour, it will live to fight another day. Google says the survivors were chosen based on whether they showed activity in late 2024.
