Earlier this year, we heard about how Google is updating the Android brand with a new logo, and we might also get to see a new 3D robot. Well, the search engine giant has finally confirmed these changes and we now have our first look at the new logo, along with a new 3D robot that looks a lot more modern than before.
The latest Android logo looks a lot more modern, with the font also getting a facelift
Google explains that the new branding is going to "help connect Android to Google", and it also is a follow-up to the last change we saw back in 2019. In a statement posted on its blog, Google talks about how the company is looking at future goals with this change and how it is vital for the company that people can use its platform for multiple use cases.
Each time we overhaul our branding, we evaluate not only changing needs, but also future goals. We know people today want more choice and autonomy, and we want our brand to be reflective of Android: something that gives people the freedom to create on their terms. As an open platform, it’s important that both our technology and brand are an invitation for people to create, connect and do more with Google on Android devices.
Google has commented on how the new Android branding takes inspiration from its own Material design that it has been using. You no longer see the lowercase text. This results in the log carrying more weight and a proper appearance of its own rather than feeling like an afterthought.
While we’ve added more curves and personality unique to Android, the new Android stylization more closely mirrors Google’s logo and creates balance between the two. We hope these small but significant updates to the Android typeface will better communicate the relationship between Android devices and the Google apps and services people already know.
You can have a look at the new Android robot or the Bugdroid below.
Google has mentioned that the new Android logo, along with all of the other aspects, is going to start rolling out to all devices and various spots starting this year. Let us know if you have managed to spot the latest Bugdroid and how you like its latest look in the comments below. We are hoping that the new logo starts rolling out once Android 14 hits the stable channel sometime later this month or next month.
