Here are some Google Assistant updates coming to Google hardware
August 02, 2025
The long-awaitedGoogle hardware eventtook place on Tuesday, but we’re still unpacking a lot of the updates and announcements from the company. Today,Google published a laundry listof all the variousGoogle Assistantupdates coming to various pieces of Google hardware.
To be clear, a lot of these Google Assistant updates will hit Google-branded devices first, especially theGoogle Pixel 3andGoogle Home Hub. However, at some point in the future most (if not all) of these updates will roll out to capable Android devices.
Those of you who already pre-ordered your Google Pixel 3 or Google Home Hub should check out the list below as it will give you an idea of all the cool new tricks you’ll have access to. Those of you who passed on the new Google devices should also check out the list because you’ll likely eventually see these features (and will just have to be jealous of early adopters in the meantime).
Smart Displays
As previously mentioned, Google launched theGoogle Home Hubon Tuesday, the first Google-branded smart display and one of only three smart displays on the market powered by the Google Assistant (the other two being theJBL Link Viewand theLenovo Smart Display). Although the updates below are coming to the Google Home Hub (and Google really wants you to know that), the features are also coming to the other two, non-Google devices.
Smartphones
It’s very clear — despite thehilarious objections from Samsung— that Google loves the new Pixel 3 smartphones and thinks you will love them as well. That’s why nearly all of the new Google Assistant updates for phones are coming to Pixel 3 first. Some will then later come to the other Pixel smartphones, and then eventually roll out to Android at large.
All these updates confirm Google is going all-in with Google Assistant and sticking to its new “AI first” mantra.
