Before we slip into something comfy for Hot Phone Summer, on this Android Police podcast, we rinse ourselves with some rumor upkeep on the Pixel 10 (of all things), the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Flip6, and even this year's Moto Razr. We engage in a sort of food fight with the Emoji Kitchen as our battleground and generative AI as the weapons. And we talk about legislatures moving to ban kids from using smartphones in school. There's also a little "State of the Show" address at the end, if you're interested in the meta.

Welcome to the Android Police podcast. For the first 45 minutes of the show, we're talking about WWDC 2024. Yes, it's Apple Intelligence, but it's also the surprising amount of latitude the company is finally giving its customers after years of behaving like it knows better. In our second half, we'll see what's cooking between Pixels of current day and of the future as well as talk about the death of Jabra earbuds, the life of the Light Phone 3, and the trite mention of so much more. It's more show than ever.

Chocolate, as we know it, is bad for us. No, not even the fancy high-cocoa dark stuff. But on this Android Police podcast, our conversation melts into how Google drives the misleading myths promoting it as a health food, pretty much. This episode synopsis also includes the OnePlus 13, HP TouchPad, and Zendaya. Look, you've made it this far, just listen to the darn thing. And thanks, Steve.

It'd be nice to get a momentum shift in the news, but for as long as it's the apparent elephant in the room, we're talking once again about Google and AI on the Android Police podcast. This week, it's the company's response to users and the publishers who have come to rely on search traffic to keep their sites alive. We'll also pull a few new Android 15 features that we're glad to see and, if we make it past the first-cup crash, we'll get to beat down on Sony for some Overwatch clones and praise it for Astro Bot!

To think that the lowly internet commenter is being done wrong by multi-million-, even multi-billion-dollar brands. Why, perish such sacrilege! You see, there's a certain unease on this week's Android Police podcast as Will and Daniel trickle through how Sonos is banking heavily on some poorly-formed assumptions about its customer base and how Microsoft and Google are overcommitted to making money off of their investments sunk into artificial intelligence. Before all of that, we recap our first-round impressions of the Pixel 8a.

This Android Police podcast, Will and Joe Maring, editor of the section dubbed Mobile for Digital Trends, are starved of sleep and proper equipment prior to sharing their thoughts about Google I/O 2024. If you've been living above ground for the past couple years, you know what this song and dance is working up to: more artificial intelligence promises, more asphalt for the road on which the kicked can lies, and extremely inadequate results that would probably make your parents think twice about sticking them on the fridge door.
The good news is that you'll all get to try this smorgasbord in any case, so let's talk it through and prepare you for what you'll see.

What did Apple have to say when it came to their iPads? Perhaps Paramore summed it up best in 2007.
I know that your eyes are always glued to me, keeping them here and it makes no sense at all.So, what's the truth about the next-gen iPad Pro and, more importantly, the iPad Air with its 13-inch model, stagnant Liquid Retina screen spec, stubborn price-to-value ratio, and... oof, that really bad ad? Leave it up to the Android Police podcast to once again flip sides and talk all about it. Also up this week, some quick pre-review affirmations about the Pixel 8a and how American Idol may have funneled Americans right into the iMessage barrel.

Fresh ep. Time to jump the crevasse. This Android Police podcast, we're shooting down the Rabbit R1 and its ilk for good. We're also measuring up the stakes in TikTok's fight for survival in America. In the Google realms, the Pixel 8a is set for a cakewalk, Android 15 is firming up nicely (hopefully no odd ice crystals in the vanilla ice cream), and Will needs to cool down from all that screen time. Big and busy, that's how we like these shows.

Yes, time for another Android Police podcast clipshow and this one's all about Apple. Settle down, we're talking about how its iMessage platform has been made to conform with Android users one way or another. We'll cover the RCS adoption saga and then follow up with the federal antitrust suit Apple faces which is entailed in part by iMessage user capture. We'll see you on the other side with a fresh show next week.

The 100th Android Police podcast is everything you've wanted it to be. Google this, Android that, Samsung's broken, OnePlus's broken, and we finally see what's inside The Hatch from Lost. Gemini takes a page from a BAFTA vote that has gone completely insane and the streaming industry makes money on top of showbuilding practices that are incredibly destructive to viewer habits (and, thus, their revenue), but at least Skynet's incompetent intelligence means we get to live another day, folks. Nothing gets cut. Everything's here.

Google's had it out for the Android Police podcast all this time. No, not in the ways in which it's made it difficult for us to write the stories we talk about on the show, but with how its grown its phones. Android. Nexus. Pixel. All of it. The bulk of this 99th episode — which does not contain four minutes of cut-out frolicking midshow banter between our hosts — will cover the latest we're hearing about the Pixel 9 very big triple threat XL with a cherry on top.

The Department of Justice serves Apple a whopper of an antitrust suit, the consequences of which will take years to suss out and reverberate with impacts on competitors, developers, and consumers. So, what do we see from the shores of Android? The Android Police podcast is all about insights this week, some of them from our interview with Eric Migicovsky of Beeper and Pebble fame. And then we get broken down by a hilariously bad Moto G that should've been kept back in the dusty drawers of 2015.

Yes, we've seen your comments about how we at the Android Police podcast can get so down on the topic our site is all about, but hey: you'd be distressed about the ecosystem, too, if you had the numbers we're looking at and not much corporate steering power in the backseat. So, on this episode, we chat about the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, the refinement of the Pixel Fold 2, and Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth. And maybe we'll be a little sad, then hopeful about Android while we're at it.

This week on the Android Police podcast, we talk all about the first Android 15 developer preview despite the fact that, at the time of recording, we had barely an idea about what its best features were going to be. Of all things to be part of a Friday news dump, it had to be new software. Plus, further ruminations on generative AI, gaming, and why you need to chill out about the Galaxy S24's display.

This week's Android Police podcast is a heady, tough one for us, but it's one we have to do because the news and business cycles dictate it. Google climbs up yet another rung on its ambitions of AI domineering and we're taking the time to ask the hard questions that have been pounding around for years. We might answer them, if not for you, for ourselves. Also on the docket, some quaint little Pixel rumors, a reviewer's review of his review of the OnePlus 12R, and a whole lot more.
