In a couple of weeks, Google’s annual developer conference will kick off. The event is a significant one on the company’s calendar, providing insight into everything they have been working on over the past year. Rumors and information from Google suggest that I/O 2025 will be an exciting tech keynote, with a dedicated Android showcase planned a week earlier than usual.
The Android Show: I/O Edition is set to take place on May 13, featuring Android Ecosystem President Sameer Samat. It is expected that a preview of Android 16 will be announced during this showcase, as Google has confirmed the new operating system will be released before the second half of the year.
Additionally, Google is gearing up to launch Android XR, building on the success of previous XR projects. The company is working with Samsung on a headset codenamed Project Moohan, which is expected to arrive sometime this year.
With a focus on AI, Google is likely to make significant announcements related to artificial intelligence at I/O 2025. Features like Live Activities and other AI advancements are expected to be highlighted during the event.
Project Astra, a voice assistant with advanced image recognition capabilities, is also anticipated to receive an update at the conference. Wear OS, NotebookLM, and other developments from Google are expected to be showcased as well.
