It didn&#8217;t announce any Nest products, but during a segment of the show, we <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/google\/762715\/is-that-a-new-nest-smart-speaker-i-spy\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/google\/762715\/is-that-a-new-nest-smart-speaker-i-spy&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/google\/762715\/is-that-a-new-nest-smart-speaker-i-spy\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">might have gotten a glimpse<\/a> of a new Nest smart speaker. That&#8217;s a big deal, because Google hasn&#8217;t released a Nest speaker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/review\/google-nest-audio\/\">in 5 years<\/a>. The device looks like a squashed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/review\/apple-homepod-mini\/\">HomePod Mini<\/a>, with a ring of LEDs on the underside that light up when Gemini speaks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">That&#8217;s the other component\u2014Gemini <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/products\/google-nest\/gemini-for-home\/\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/blog.google\/products\/google-nest\/gemini-for-home\/&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/products\/google-nest\/gemini-for-home\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">is coming to Google Home<\/a>. It&#8217;s finally replacing Google Assistant, and that means you&#8217;ll be able to interact with the assistant much more naturally and control all of your smart home devices without having to say rigid commands. That includes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/what-is-gemini-live\/\">Gemini Live<\/a> for a much faster back-and-forth conversation with the assistant. Google&#8217;s blog post says early access to Gemini for Home will begin in October, and it will replace Assistant on existing speakers and displays \u201cover time.\u201d That might suggest a new Nest Speaker will kick off the new capabilities.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"paywall\">Masimo Sues Again Over Apple\u2019s SpO2 Tech<\/h2>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Last week, we reported that Apple had \u201credesigned\u201d its blood oxygen sensing tool to get around a patent infringement suit brought by Masimo, and that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/apple-watch-blood-oxygen-sensing-is-back\/\" target=\"_blank\">blood oxygen sensing<\/a> had returned to the Apple Watch Series 9, 10, and Ultra 2. On Wednesday, August 20, Masimo sued US Customs and Border Protection, saying that CBP had unlawfully allowed Apple to reactivate the feature, <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/news.bloomberglaw.com\/daily-labor-report\/masimo-sues-us-customs-over-apple-restoring-watchs-oxygen-tool\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/news.bloomberglaw.com\/daily-labor-report\/masimo-sues-us-customs-over-apple-restoring-watchs-oxygen-tool&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bloomberglaw.com\/daily-labor-report\/masimo-sues-us-customs-over-apple-restoring-watchs-oxygen-tool\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">as reported by Bloomberg Law<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">In the complaint, Masimo notes that CBP had reversed the ruling in an ex parte decision without Masimo\u2019s knowledge, in spite of the fact that the agency normally requires both parties to be heard. In addition, Masimo also noted that this reversal comes after Apple committed an additional <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/newsroom\/2025\/08\/apple-increases-us-commitment-to-600-billion-usd-announces-ambitious-program\/\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.apple.com\/newsroom\/2025\/08\/apple-increases-us-commitment-to-600-billion-usd-announces-ambitious-program\/&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/newsroom\/2025\/08\/apple-increases-us-commitment-to-600-billion-usd-announces-ambitious-program\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$100 billion<\/a> in US investment for a total of $600 billion, in a ceremony where Apple CEO Tim Cook presented Trump with <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DNDT6xwCObS\/\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DNDT6xwCObS\/&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DNDT6xwCObS\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">an engraved glass disk mounted on a 24K-gold base<\/a>.
