Like many families during American Thanksgiving, we've made too much Android Police podcast this week. The drumbeat towards Android 16 officially began with a thump, so why not talk about what's going on inside of it? The AI people are boasting about how they'll be going "agentic" in 2025, so why not catch that trend by its baby legs and put it against our calipers before runaway expectations catch fire? And why not dig a little deeper at the notion of Google being broken up by the Department of Justice since the agency's finally making the big asks it wants?
We've got so many why nots this week that you'll be hearing even more from this week's taping come next holiday week!

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).

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

Hey there, audio folk. This is our first full episode using a new workflow to produce the podcast to accommodate our expanded video output. That's right, we're doing video podcasts for real with clips and the full show available on our YouTube channel, site, and various social media.
It's an exciting venture for us and one that, we hope, will garner us more fans so that we're able to get the show financially sustainable.
There will be some trade-offs, however, such as audio and edit quality that we have to make to ensure that our editor (hi) can manage this as part of their overall workload.
We ask for your understanding and hope you'll continue to enjoy the show as longtime listeners. We also invite you to watch Daniel and Will on the tubes! Thanks.
