Can Samsung Ever Lead Again?

The importance of Samsung in the Android ecosystem, in spite of our whining about its tepidness, remains paramount. So, how will this tech leader carve its path in 2025? Perhaps an all-Snapdragon year of flagships? A tri-foldable to answer the calls of Huawei? Or a delay in Galaxy AI features that were promised to come with One UI 7? James Peckham joins Will this week as the Android Police podcast paints out the plot. Plus, the demise of Amazon's Freevee, the continued demise of Xbox's future, and a nifty new thing we've done with the Pixel 9 (and might do with other phones, should you want it).03:24 | SamsungSamsung Galaxy S25 launch date just leaked from two different sourcesGalaxy S25s will use Snapdragon worldwide due to poor Samsung Foundry yieldsOne UI 7 might not bring the upgrades you're waiting forSamsung's tri-fold phone might use an 'infolding' design to solve durability problemsSamsung may outsource Exynos to TSMC and scrap in-house Snapdragon plans23:30 | Big ThoughtsGoogle has made searching the Play Store so frustrating, I don't even bother anymoreReview: Google's Pixel 9 display is as good as it gets39:28 | The BagXbox boss confirms a handheld console is in the worksValve's snowy Steam Deck is coming down the chimney just in time for ChristmasAmazon pulls the plug on Freevee, its free ad-supported streaming serviceOur regular hosts are Daniel Bader and Will Sattelberg.

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.

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 ThingsAndroid 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 of23:01 | Serious Other ThingsChatGPT'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 LeeOur 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.Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite: Everything you need to knowQualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite wants to turn your Android phone into a mobile powerhouseArm's licensing battle with Qualcomm just got a lot more seriousBelieve it or not, the Snapdragon 8 Elite might make smartphones exciting againThe Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition will make you regret buying the Fold 6Samsung's tri-fold Galaxy Z could launch as soon as next yearOur regular hosts are Daniel Bader and Will Sattelberg.

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?

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?

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.How an iPod Nano became my favorite camcorderThe OnePlus Concept One is very, very orangeWhat you need to know about the iPhone 16's cameras999 Photos on the Pixel 9 Pro XL#36: Today's the Day | Reply AllNikkormat: The Sport Utility of 35mm SLRs — Blog (fogdog-photography.com)Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar | GoodreadsBecca Farsace on Leaving The Verge and Going Independent | The PetaPixel PodcastOur regular hosts are Daniel Bader and Will Sattelberg.

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 GoogleMy 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 WayLeaked 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 corner27:17 | A Viral Spiral into AIMy Rep read my novel.

Sweet 16, Poisoned Apple? ft. Joe Maring

Another year of Apple has really grown to become just that: another year. At least, that's what we think of it. And by "we," we of course mean the Android Police podcast and Joe Maring, mobile editor for Digital Trends who happened to be at Apple Park this week for the big launch. That leaves us with some questions about how the deck is stacked against Google and whether there are opportunities to be taken here.

The Pixel Fold's Three-Gen Jump ft. Michael Fisher

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is coming into its own... or at least it's helping Google do so in the field of foldable phones. On this Android Police podcast, we've invited back Michael Fisher of the Mr. Mobile fame to rattle through the full width of the delta from the Pixel Fold. The 9 Pro Fold is so much better, no doubt, but will it make the case for millions and millions of people to go to their carrier store and buy this or any other foldable? Or is the sea change always going to be another year away?Also, we've got a (rough, but serviceable) video version of the show!

The Longer-Than-3-Day Pixel 9 Review

Congratulations on stumbling upon another Android Police podcast! This week, we conclude our collective reviews on the slab Pixel 9 series and we come to a resounding "it's alright." Whether or not you should buy it coming up from somewhere outside of the brand loyalty fold is another question and that really gets to whether you think the artificial intelligence features are important and positively useful to you. Oh, and our hosts have turned on their webcams for the first time in this iteration of the show and you won't be able to see much of that footage until we've had a chance to, uh, nail production down.01:13 | More like AI GLOATwareThe AI bloatware era is here.

The Non-Valorant Edition

The Android Police podcast returns for a trot through the big Google anti-trust ruling this week and what details you might be missing to help it make more sense. After that, it's Pixel pricing prognostications, Apex Legends-aping foldable phones, and a Wiggles-induced rant about the failing company that is luxury audio brand Sonos.

Two Phones Ahead, One Android Version Behind ft. James Peckham

Like any TV series that has stuck around for a season too long, the Android Police podcast is back with another freaking week of Pixel leaks, this time on the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The long and short of it is that we're hoping it nails the landing, but wouldn't be surprised if it disappointed us when it launches with, say, a year-old version of Android.

In terms of the software updates; keep in mind that OnePlus and Samsung generally have features before Google regardless of Android version. Most of the updates to AOSP/Pixel already existed in the competitions ROMs on previous Android releases.
