Multiple rumors erupted today that Google would be forced to cancel the Pixel 5a because of component shortages. But that’s not the case, Google says.

As you may know, Google improves the Pixel user experience every few months with Feature Drops that add new and improved functionality.

Google Fit will add free heart rate and respiratory rate measuring capabilities using sensors that are already built-in to Android smartphones.

Google today announced its December 2020 Pixel Feature Drop, which adds several new features to recent Pixel handsets.

Arriving about a month after the Pixel 5, and about three months after the Pixel 4a, the Pixel 4a 5G is the closest we’ll get to an XL Pixel this year.

Thanks to the 2020 lineup, I’ve gone through what I call the 7 Stages of Pixel Grief: Confusion, Confusion, Confusion, Confusion, Confusion, Anger, and Resignation.

Google is making its Pixel 4a available for a limited time in a fun new Barely Blue color if you buy directly from the online giant.

In the wake of alarming reports of Pixel 5 build quality issues, Google says that gaps under the display are not a design defect.

Here we go again. Another year. Another Pixel. And another problem. Is this the end of the line for Google’s beleaguered smartphone family?

After a bunch of leaks, Google is finally making the Pixel 5 official. Here's everything you need to know.

For the first time in over five years, I won’t be purchasing one of Google’s fall handset releases. And no, it’s not because it’s not a real flagship.

The Google Pixel 4a is the new sweet spot, assuming you can live with its tiny display and form factor, and a few other limitations.

Now that we have a clearer picture of Google’s new smartphone strategy, I think I finally understand why the firm delayed releasing the Pixel 4a.

What’s affordable, cute as a button, and comes in a delightful polycarbonate body with a clean software image? Right, the Pixel 4a. It’s finally here.

An Android blog has obtained what it says are Google internal documents that describe several upcoming Pixel handsets.

Google is expected to announce the Pixel 5 in October, but the firm has taken the unprecedented step of discontinuing its predecessors months early.

In continually delaying the Pixel 4a, Google has proven that it is even more inept than was previously understood.

Google today announced the third Pixel feature drop, adding adaptive battery improvements, new safety features, and other improvements.

A new report claims that Google sold only 2 million Pixel 4 handsets, leading to the departure of two key executives.

With its hardware business failing, Google is pulling another page from the Apple playbook. It’s not going to help.

Last year, the Pixel 3a family was a surprise hit for Google’s struggling smartphone business. Can it duplicate that success in 2020?

I don’t believe rumors that the Pixel 5 will be a mid-range handset instead of a flagship. But that is exactly what Google should do.

The late 2018 release of the Pixel 3 was a sales disaster for Google. But there are indications that the Pixel 4 is even worse off.

For the first time ever, Google's next-generation Assistant on the Pixel 4 now supports a different language than English -- and users in Japan can now experience the new Assistant.

Google revealed today that it will make the Pixel family of smartphones better over time with so-called “feature drops.”
