Google Messages is getting a slight modern makeover
Google Messages has started receiving a Material 3 Expressive makeover. Material 3 Expressive is Google's new colorful, customizable, and bold design language. The interface is a part of Android 16, which is in beta right now, but some apps such as Gmail and Photos, and now Google Messages, have already had their first taste of the redesign. According to 9to5Google , only the Google Messages chat interface has received the Material 3 Expressive treatment for now. As is often the case with changes like these, you may not spot them right away, especially if you give the app a cursory glance only, but look closely, and sure enough, some elements of Google Messages have been updated per Material 3 Expressive.

The menu has the same background as the Google Messages bar with a lower density than before and the icons are no longer colorful. When you tap on the emoji menu, you will be shown a connected button group to switch between Emoji, GIFs, Stickers, and Photomoji. It has also been placed in a rounded container and the tab you select becomes a pill. The search bar has been moved below the button group, so you won't be confused between the message field and the search field. Google Messages users, particularly those with Samsung phones, on the beta version 20250528_00_RC00 should expect to see these changes any time now. The Material 3 Expressive redesign for Android 16 was announced last month during Google I/O's Android Show. It will make the interface emotionally impactful interface, or so Google hopes, and make everything engaging and easier to use.

Gmail is getting a visual makeover that might finally make swiping fun again
Google has started rolling out the Material 3 Expressive design update to Gmail on Android. This is one of the first apps to receive the updated look, but the rollout is still limited, so most users haven't received it yet. That includes many Pixel owners like myself, who are still waiting to see the changes in 3 Expressive was officially introduced last month as part of a larger visual overhaul coming to Android. The new design language builds on Material You, with more vibrant colors, smoother animations, and layered UI elements. It's expected to roll out more widely later this year alongside the second Android 16 QPR beta, but Google is already updating some of its own apps in advance. Gmail is among the first to get the new look. As seen in Google's preview and reports from early users, the changes are noticeable but not drastic. The message list now appears on a rounded card-like background, giving the inbox a more modern feel. The search bar, navigation menu button, and account switcher sit on a separate, more colorful background layer. There's also a new animation when swiping on messages, and the "Compose" button is bolder than before. Material 3 Expressive is appearing for some Gmail users. | Image credit —AleksLevet (Reddit) via 9to5Google Material 3 Expressive is appearing for some Gmail users. | Images credit —SparkRadar (Telegram) via Android Authority So far, only a small number of users have received the update. A Nothing Phone user posted a video of the new swipe animation on Reddit, while another user shared screenshots of the refreshed UI on X (formerly Twitter) from what looks like a OnePlus device. Android Authority also pointed to a Telegram user who shared screenshots of actual emails with the new is not the biggest Material 3 update we'll see, but it does mark an early step toward Google's broader design changes. More apps, such as Google Photos and Messages, are expected to follow in the coming we've covered previously, the goal of Material 3 Expressive is to make Android apps feel more dynamic and visually consistent. While Gmail's update is just getting started, it signals where the platform is headed. For now, the rollout appears to be server-side and staggered, so there's no clear timeline for when it will arrive on all devices. If you haven't received the update yet, you're not alone. It may take some time before Material 3 Expressive reaches everyone. Still, it's exciting to see Google begin this new chapter for Android's design and I can't wait to see this new look appear across the apps on my Pixel.

The iPhone 17 and 17 Air may have 120Hz displays, but without the ProMotion features - GSMArena.com news
03 June 2025 We've been hearing for a while now that the whole iPhone 17 family will have 120Hz displays and everyone assumed this means ProMotion – but that may not be the case. To be fair, every display from Apple with higher than 60Hz refresh rate has been branded 'ProMotion', so it was a reasonable assumption. However, there is more to ProMotion than just the top refresh rate frequency – it has a wide range of frequency options, ranging from 10Hz to 120Hz on the iPhone 13 Pro. The lower limit was dropped to 1Hz with the iPhone 14 Pro generation. This browser does not support the video element. ProMotion on the iPhone 13 Pro Some high refresh rate displays only offer a few options, e.g. 60Hz, 90Hz and 120Hz. Presumably, this will be the case for the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air. Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max should have LTPO panels that can save power on static content by going below 60Hz - this is especially useful in Always-On Display mode. AOD isn't available on non-Pro iPhones and it's not clear whether that will change with the 17-series. LTPO isn't that expensive these days and can even be found on some mid-rangers. Still, we're just glad to see that Apple is ready to leave 60Hz displays in the past where they belong. That may not be entirely true - it's not clear whether the iPhone 17e will be included in the 120Hz upgrade. Remember, the 'e' phones will be yearly releases and a new one is coming in early 2026.
