Google is already working in the next Pixel 10 and Pixel 11 as was learned yesterday from an internal source. Now one of the bugs that were generated has been marked as corrected when updating old Pixels to the latest version of Android, precisely 15. This version was deployed to the new Pixel 9 like the rest of the old Pixels such as the Pixel 8 series in the middle of October. These types of updates make you enjoy the news and those new experiences who spend their daily lives better with a smartphone, a tablet or a smart watch. But not everything always goes well and with this deployment, users of the old Pixels found themselves with a very strange bug: Swiping in from the right side of the phone did not activate the back gesture, so the interaction experience failed severely with that update to Android 15. Now the issue has been marked as corrected in Issue Trackerthe web space that Google uses to record all bugs or errors on its mobile devices and where you can review the correction of errors. Pixel 7 Pro Alvarez del Vayo The Free Android In fact, a Google employee has stated that the solution will be deployed in a new imminent update of Pixel phones so that normal use of the phone can be resumed. First reported on a Pixel 8 Pro so that it would soon be confirmed in other models by more users. The error affected the gestures that are applied from both sides, not only the right one as has now been confirmed as solved since Issue Tracker. And it is a quite serious problem for the mobile gesture experience, since it has prevented the ability to navigate backwards. The only solution that had been given until now was use the navigation bar with its three buttons, but you can almost say that it is an almost retro experience so that moving with gestures is tremendously simple. The update with the back gesture fix will be deployed in the month of Februaryright in the first weeks, so any of the old Pixels can be used again as it has always been done with an error that can generate a lot of frustration according to what it maintains GSMArena.

And while other content platforms like Spotify have only effective an increase in the last 12 years, Netflix has been applying one after another and without knowing for sure if this will be the last, since since it began to block shared accounts it has not stopped modifying the price of its subscriptions. Anyone who thought that 2025 was going to be left without a price increase can now abandon that idea, since the platform with the highest number of subscribers just announced another change to their subscriptionsalthough for now they will stay in the United States; It will not take long for them to be applied in the rest of the countries, as will happen in Spain.

your Galaxy S25, Gemini in Galaxy AI and the long-awaited One UI 7 update

Today is the big day of Galaxy Unpacked in which the Galaxy S25 Slim will possibly be shown, Samsung’s slim flagship phone. A very special event for several reasons. One of them is the renewal of the Galaxy S25 seriesanother the premiere of One UI 7 with new AI functions and the third for the possible appearance of a mobile phone that aims to be very different from the rest of the Galaxy S25, the S25 Slim. It is the first time that Samsung announces the new One UI update at the presentation of its new flagship phones. And until now I had always left the deployment of One UI for autumn so that the flagships launched that same year could test all the new features. Last year, if One UI 7 had been launched in the fall, the Galaxy S24 would be the mobile phones that would test the virtues and benefits of Android 15 for the first time; just as it has been with the Galaxy S23 and One UI 6, or the Galaxy S22 with One UI 5. Bringing the new One UI 7 update to the announcement of its new Galaxy S25 has meant that the beta was also published later, just in December of last year. So the brand’s loyal followers have had to wait longer than necessary. So that today, at 7:00 p.m. in Spain, the Galaxy Unpacked that can be followed from the official Samsung website and thus attend all that string of news that the Korean company will show. And there are many, so last minute surprises are also expected. One UI 7 is something more Samsung is going to give the details of a major update that has been delayed to bring important news and one appears as the main protagonist: Now Bar, a personal text assistant which will be located on the lock screen to give recommendations to the user. Another important novelty is the new quick settings panel redesignthat will allow you to open notifications on the one hand and on the other hand those settings (similar to MIUI and other layers); changes to the camera app, which will improve user interaction for faster captures; and the possibility of a renewed Bixby with AI. One UI 7 on a Samsung Galaxy S25 Samsung The Free Android But there is more, and Samsung does not want to be left behind in the race for the best user experience that Apple is providing with its iPhone and those fluid animationsand from what has been seen, One UI 7 will exponentially increase interaction with apps, icons, screens and more so that everything looks very fluid; and even more so when their Ultra models enjoy a 120 Hz refresh rate on the screen. It will also give a twist to the personalization of its mobile phones so that the user can change almost everything about the interface. It will even give the possibility of freely place app icons or widgets on the home screen by removing grid limitations. One UI 7 interface SamMobile The Free Android A great review of the Good Lock modules that will allow you to make recordings with the camera app so that the file is go directly to the connected external hard drive to the USB type-C connection of the Galaxy S25 and others. Galaxy AI and Gemini from Google In One UI 7 another of the protagonists will be Gemini with Galaxy AIwhich will bring a lot of new features to Samsung phones and will be part of the system so that it is not even necessary to use the internet connection for tasks such as photo editing. @OnLeaks | x The Free Android Of course, now Gemini will appear by default to be invoked by the voice command “Hey, Gemini”, instead of the familiar “Hey, Google”. In fact, its integration will be complete with some apps such as notes or messaging apps and thus it will be a very capable assistant so that you can search for a place to go to dinner and send it directly to a contact. In fact, AI will also be part of Now Bar with Now Brief and thus give a daily summary with artificial intelligence or simply give context to the actions that the user takes with your mobile. It can be said that the experience will be much more interactive so that AI becomes part of the user’s daily life with Galaxy AI. New daily summary on the Samsung Galaxy with Gemini Technoblog The Free Android Another of the most interesting functions will be YouTube Noteswhich will be responsible for providing information or a summary of the video that is playing on the screen. Almost as if it were a kind of Rodea to search for a special good that you can interact with directly from the YouTube video platform app. The integration will also be total with the calendar, reminders and notes appso the assistant will be in charge of carrying out all kinds of tasks to save time and thus generate an experience that elevates Galaxy AI to another category, when it was first launched on the Galaxy S24; and we must not forget about multimodality in artificial intelligence for the more creative side of One UI 7. The four Galaxy S24 Another of the surprises of Galaxy Unpacked is going to be the announcement of a mobile that aims to be something very different what Samsung has been launching for years, with the exception of the Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip folding phones. This is the Galaxy S25 Slimalthough its total availability will be for the month of May according to a last-minute leak.
