Though we already have a fairly good idea of what Google plans to announce on Aug. 20, there are a few things I want on the agenda, starting with a smartphone that can take a beating.

Google could've solved this trust issue by being more transparent instead of trying to sweep it all under the rug.

Dive into what we can expect from the Made by Google 2025 event, where the tech giant will debut its Pixel 10 lineup.

You can visit the Pixel 10's Google Store page now, which shows an image of the back of the standard Pixel 10 phone. There's also a button there to sign up for emails to receive an "exclusive offer" for new subscribers, offering a single-use discount for an eligible device from August 20 - September 4 when buying the phone via the Google Store.

The Pixel 9a is IP68-rated for dust and water-resistance, adding some peace of mind. Any quality smartphone still needs an excellent screen, and the Pixel 9a delivers. Its 6.3-inch Actua display is bright and saturated, and you’ll enjoy playing games and watching movies on it.

The 41mm model is slated to get 30 hours of battery life, and the 45mm model 40, according to serial leaker Evan Blass, who posted Pixel Watch 4 leaks on X. The smartwatches will also get 25% faster charging rates, according to Blass.

UFS 4.0 storage will be included inside the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold, and probably other Pixel 10 phones too, at least the 'Pro' ones.
