Google dunks on iOS 26 as it teases imminent Pixel 10 launch
I thought Google would surely mock Apple Intelligence at I/O 2025, following Apple’s massive fumble this year. Apple’s big Siri makeover is still missing in action, while Gemini has added plenty of new features since Apple unveiled its ambitious AI plans at WWDC 2024.
Google refrained from criticizing Apple in any way and focused on its own AI announcements instead. But it went after Apple as soon as WWDC 2025 concluded last week. The company announced the release of Android 16 to Pixel devices along with a slew of new features for existing Android and Pixel phones.
This wasn’t a coincidence. Google made its Android move just as the world was buzzing about the novelties in iOS 26 and the new Liquid Glass design coming to all of Apple’s products.
A week after the Android 16 announcement, Google is back with a more direct attack. The company released a funny commercial that mocks some of the new features in iOS 26 that have been available on Pixel phones for years. The ad also teases the imminent arrival of Google’s Pixel 10 phones, which are expected to launch sometime this summer.
