Google launches Wear OS 7 with Live Updates and a battery life boost

谷歌发布 Wear OS 7,带来“实时更新”功能与续航提升

Google’s Wear OS 7 update is starting to roll out today for the Pixel Watch 2, 3, and 4, adding a new Live Updates feature that tracks live events from your Android smart watch. Live Updates will now sync with Wear OS devices, so updates like sports scores or an ongoing meal delivery will show up on both your watch and your phone. 谷歌的 Wear OS 7 更新于今日开始向 Pixel Watch 2、3 和 4 推送,新增了“实时更新”功能,可让您通过 Android 智能手表追踪实时事件。该功能现已与 Wear OS 设备同步,因此体育比分或正在进行的餐点配送等更新将同时显示在您的手表和手机上。

You might also notice your watch lasting a little longer — Google claims Wear OS 7 offers up to 10 percent more battery life than Wear OS 6. 您可能还会发现手表的续航时间有所延长——谷歌声称,与 Wear OS 6 相比,Wear OS 7 的电池续航能力提升了高达 10%。


Android foldables are getting new gamepad controls.

Android 折叠屏手机迎来全新游戏手柄控制功能。

Pixel foldables get the new feature first, which is being added to Android 17 alongside native controller remapping, but only rolls out “in the coming months.” We’ve seen control options like this in other foldables before, but it’s welcome to see Google bake it into the OS. Pixel 折叠屏手机将率先获得此项新功能。该功能随 Android 17 一同推出,并支持原生手柄按键映射,但仅会在“未来几个月内”逐步推送。我们此前在其他折叠屏设备上见过类似的控制选项,但很高兴看到谷歌将其整合进操作系统中。


Android 17 arrives on Pixel phones today

Android 17 今日登陆 Pixel 手机

Following its official debut last month, Google is now rolling out Android 17 to compatible Pixel phones, alongside additional exclusive features as part of the June Pixel Drop. Not every feature announced alongside the OS at the pre-I/O Android Show is available today, though. 继上个月正式发布后,谷歌现正向兼容的 Pixel 手机推送 Android 17,并作为 6 月份 Pixel Drop 更新的一部分,带来了额外的独家功能。不过,并非所有在 I/O 前夕 Android 发布会上宣布的功能都能在今天使用。

Android 17 itself is arriving on Pixel phones today, and Google says other manufacturers will be issuing the update throughout 2026. The biggest user interface update is the introduction of Bubbles, floating app windows that you can open with a long press — similar floating windows are already found in many Android skins, but are now an official part of 17. Google is making them more useful on bigger screens, with a dedicated “bubble bar” dock at the bottom of the screen for easier multitasking on foldables and tablets. Android 17 本身于今日登陆 Pixel 手机,谷歌表示其他制造商将在 2026 年内陆续发布更新。此次用户界面最大的更新是引入了“气泡”(Bubbles)功能,即可以通过长按打开的悬浮应用窗口——虽然许多 Android 定制系统早已具备类似的悬浮窗口,但现在它们已成为 Android 17 的官方功能。谷歌通过在屏幕底部设置专用的“气泡栏”(bubble bar)停靠区,使其在大屏设备上更加实用,从而提升了折叠屏手机和平板电脑的多任务处理效率。


The Google / Xreal Aura XR glasses are now available to preorder

Google 与 Xreal 合作的 Aura XR 眼镜现已开启预购

The Project Aura glasses collaboration between Xreal and Google is now one step closer to being something you can buy. Reservations for the second Android XR device, now dubbed the Xreal Aura, are available for $99 starting today, with a full launch in the US, UK, Japan, Canada, and South Korea expected sometime this Fall. Xreal 与谷歌合作的 Project Aura 眼镜项目距离正式上市又近了一步。这款名为 Xreal Aura 的第二款 Android XR 设备从今日起开启预订,预订金为 99 美元。预计将于今年秋季在美国、英国、日本、加拿大和韩国全面发售。

The Xreal Aura follows Google’s first Android-powered XR device, the Samsung Galaxy XR headset, which launched at $1,799 in October 2025. We still don’t have a full price for the Aura — which Google has previously described as “a headset masquerading as glasses” — but Best Buy will be the first in-store retail partner when it does become available. Xreal Aura 是继谷歌首款搭载 Android 系统的 XR 设备(三星 Galaxy XR 头显,于 2025 年 10 月以 1799 美元的价格发布)之后的又一力作。目前我们尚未获得 Aura 的完整定价——谷歌此前将其描述为“伪装成眼镜的头显”——但当产品正式上市时,百思买(Best Buy)将成为其首个线下零售合作伙伴。
