    Google Gets to Gloat

    In what remains of the mobile ecosystem wars, how does the Android Police podcast make of all the good news Android (and, specifically, Google) has been getting in terms of shipments and trends lately? Well, we chalk it up to a surprisingly down year for the iPhone 16 and the Pixel 9 getting all the important just right enough. Also this week on the show, Netflix is showing signs it's keen on jettisoning its games offerings. We've also got a bonus segment of the show exclusive to androidpolice.com from November 12 talking not about the results of U.S. elections, but how we saw our most important platforms cover the event. Join us there for that. 03:29 | Googles of Good News The Pixel 9's strong sales numbers could be the key to Android's survivalGoogle's US market share soars as strong Pixel 9 sales help surpass Motorola and OnePlus 23:15 | Other News Amazon stops Kindle Colorsoft shipments due to major display issuesNetflix is killing some of its most unique streaming contentNintendo says the Switch successor will be compatible with Switch games - The VergeAlbum art is finally coming to your Pixel's 'Now Playing' feature We're Not Wrong Our regular hosts are Daniel Bader and Will Sattelberg.

    Will the Real Android Please Stand Up?

    The Android Police podcast is still a podcast, first and foremost, about Android, so why not talk about Android first on this episode of the show? A novel idea! And perhaps a risky one if the reality of Android continues to trend in the direction we've been covering. Still, we're pressing fast forward on Android 16, dreading the iOS-ification of OEM skins, and, yet again, wondering if the AI heads are screwed into their necks straight. All that and more this hour. 03:13 | Android Things Android 16 will be released much earlier than you thinkNew One UI 7 leak reveals bolstered parental controls, new lock screen, AI features, and moreA rumored Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim could battle the iPhone 17 Slim late next yearThe OnePlus 13 is official, and it might be the phone power users have been dreaming of 23:01 | Serious Other Things ChatGPT's answer to Google Search is now availableWill Apple Intelligence be enough to make the iPhone 16 exciting? 38:19 | One Last Thing (or Two) This Pixel 9a leak might convince you to hold off on your Pixel 9 purchaseNintendo just launched its own music streaming app, and it's loaded with nostalgiaDiamond Jubilee | Cindy Lee Our regular hosts are Daniel Bader and Will Sattelberg.

    Performative Performance Per Watt

    All of a sudden, it's a tightening race in the chip sector to bring efficiency to bear in what may beget the merging of applications in the mobile and desktop worlds... again. You know, like we haven't tried or done that before. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite is our star for today's Android Police podcast, but we will also trifle through the thought of a tri-fold Galaxy Z Fold 7... and given how timid Samsung has been, yes, we're just as surprised as you are.

    Samsung's Got Surprises

    Things are a little too quiet around here: the Android Police podcast doesn't do Mac news and the Android 15 update coming out this week isn't exactly going to start fires. Why not have Samsung toy around with a new aspect ratio for its foldables in Asia next week? Or maybe we should take the bait and see how we feel about an AI chatbot replacing the entire settings menu in One UI? James Peckham fills in for Daniel on yet another interesting episode. 03:13 | Fifteen Winks Review: My favorite Android 15 features are far from flashy9 essential Android 15 features you'll want to try immediatelyAndroid 15: Availability, timeline, and what's new in Google's latest software relase 25:19 | Sam Strung Review: I love Samsung's Galaxy Tab S10+, but it's a hard tablet to recommendReview: The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is one step away from greatnessA better Galaxy Z Fold 6 is launching this month, but not for everyoneIs Samsung's rumored AI Settings push genius, or a joke? 49:28 | We're Having Potluck for Dessert Review: The iPhone 16 is the iPhone you should be tempted byMusk's X disregards app store policies with new block function revampWe finally have a color Kindle as the entire e-reader lineup gets a refreshBBC One - LudwigBalatro – Apps on Google Play Our regular hosts are Daniel Bader and Will Sattelberg.

    The Guts to Break Google?

    Will and Daniel are back on the Android Police podcast covering some breaking news that folks in our space have been expecting for a while now. But will Epic Games and the Department of Justice actually bring Google to heel? After all, we are talking about an internet monolith controlling several major markets that consist of our core experiences navigating the online and mobile worlds. And will the relief sought be the relief brought forth? Also, we take a twirl around the edge of your phone's screen, get a wake-up call from Nintendo, and recall the Microsoft Kin on the show this week! 04:12 | Axe Grinding Epic just won almost everything it asked for in its Google Play Store trialGoogle's appeal of the Epic ruling asks 'Why not Apple?'4 ways the Play Store could change after Google ordered to offer alternatives to its app platformThe DOJ wants to break up Google, suggests splitting Chrome and Android 45:35 | Lower Stakes Smartphone bezels are almost too slim, and that's a big problem for usabilityNintendo's Alarmo calls on your favorite characters to get you out of bedSamsung says sorry for not innovating enoughMicrosoft Introduces ‘Kin’, Shows That They, Like, Totally Get KidsGoogle Pixel Buds Pro 2 review: A splash of color in a drab market Our regular hosts are Daniel Bader and Will Sattelberg.

    Here Goes Nothing ft. Becca Farsace

    The Android Police podcast is thrilled to be joined this week by longtime Verge producer and freshly-minted indie tech creator Becca Farsace! Since leaving the Vox fixture, she's been on an incredible ride through the "middle of nowhere" as she describes it towards... well, "nothing," wherever that is. Building off her considerable knowledge base in cameras, Daniel sits down with Becca to chat about whether she'll end up placing the iPhone 16 over the Pixel 9 this year for top smartphone camera. But if you love tales about storycraft and waxing philosophical about the tech that keeps our lives tethered in place, get comfy and strap in.

    What MKBHD Owes You

    It's the Android Police podcast for the week to close out September and we're getting some post-equinox afterburners to complement a hot summer of consumer tech. We spend a bit too long talking about the Google TV Streamer and our unfulfilled need for a decent set-top box before hitting on the Pixel Buds 2 Pro or Pro 2 or Pixel 2 Pro Buds — someone help. A quick whip around the Galaxy S24 FE and some tablets will bring us into Marques Brownlee's Panels problems and what our parasocial paradigms have caused in inflating this mess. 04:45 | Made It to Google My least favorite Google TV Streamer feature might just be Google TV itselfReview: The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 are a bright spot in a dull marketFlashforward (TV Series 2009–2010) - IMDbAuthor Robert J.

    Can Samsung Stop Sucking, Please?

    Fall hasn't even started and we're already looking to next year with the Galaxy S25 phones rumbling their way into the rumor pipeline. And so, the Android Police podcast will be taking the bulk of our runtime this week to distill what we're hoping to get out of another year of Samsung-weighted expectations. That plus the false return of Flappy Bird, changes in how teens might use Instagram, and a home repair conversation that didn't make the edit — all of that, this week! 04:00 | Samsung All the Way Leaked Galaxy S25+ renders reveal Samsung will borrow a design cue from its latest foldableThese Samsung Galaxy S25+ leaks contain both good and bad newsSamsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra could outshine the iPhone 16 Pro Max in more ways than oneHere's how Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra may look different to the S24 UltraLeaked Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra renders reveal an iPhone-like flat designSamsung plans massive round of layoffs as Galaxy sales plateauThe Samsung Galaxy Tab S10's launch could be around the corner 27:17 | A Viral Spiral into AI My Rep read my novel.
