Google now allows you to edit your @gmail email address.
Google has updated its Support page to announce that it is gradually rolling out the ability for users to change their Google account email address ending in gmail.com to a new gmail.com email address. Previously, this was not possible.

The Google account email address is used to log in to various Google services. It appears on the profile page and is displayed when performing actions such as sharing files from Drive and sending Calendar invitations. Many users may want to change their email address, but previously, Google only allowed email addresses from external services.

Google states that when users choose to change their email address from their old gmail.com to a new gmail.com email, the old email will become an "alternate email" that can be used for login or password recovery. Emails will still be received from both the old and new email addresses.

Samsung Mobile Faces Historic Challenges: Potential First-Ever Annual Operating Loss Looming Samsung Electronics is facing a pivotal moment in its mobile division. According to reports from South Korean media, TM Roh , Head of Samsung’s Mobile eXperience (MX) business, has expressed internal concerns regarding the potential for an operating loss this fiscal year.

However, the current surge in DRAM and memory chip prices has created a severe cost burden for smartphone manufacturers worldwide.

The Vulnerability of Price-Sensitive Models The cost crisis hits different segments in vastly different ways: Entry-Level/Budget Models: These devices a...

GitHub Copilot Shifts to Usage-Based AI Credits What Developers Need to Know.

  GitHub Copilot Overhauls Pricing: Moving to a Token-Based "Credit" System Following last week’s surprise announcement regarding a temporary freeze on new GitHub Copilot customer onboarding, GitHub has officially unveiled a complete overhaul of its AI pricing model. The platform is moving away from its previous "Request-Based" system in favor of a more granular, usage-based model powered by GitHub AI Credits . From PRUs to Token-Based Credits Previously, GitHub Copilot utilized Premium Request Units (PRUs) , which applied different multipliers based on the model used. However, this structure had a significant flaw: simple conversational queries and complex, long-running coding tasks were often treated as a single "request." While this made Copilot an attractive, budget-friendly alternative to token-based competitors, it created scaling challenges for GitHub’s backend. Starting June 1, 2026 , the new system will: Account for Every Token: Usage will be me...

Beijing Blocks Meta $2 Billion Acquisition of AI Startup "Manus" In a significant move highlighting the escalating technological rivalry between Washington and Beijing, China National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) has officially blocked Meta’s $2 billion acquisition of the Singapore-based AI agent startup, Manus AI . The Intervention: A Major Regulatory Blow The NDRC has issued a formal order requiring both Meta and the relevant parties to "unwind" the transaction. While the commission cited compliance with "laws and regulations" as the basis for the decision, the move is widely viewed by industry analysts as a strategic effort by Beijing to prevent the "hollowing out" of China’s domestic AI innovation base. The "Manus" Story: From China to Singapore Manus AI, initially developed by the Beijing-based startup Butterfly Effect , gained global prominence in early 2025 as a breakthrough "action engine." Unlike tradit...

Meta Launches "Instants": The New Standalone App for "Real Life, Real Quick" Moments Meta has officially launched Instants , a new standalone application derived from Instagram’s internal features. Now available for download on both iOS and Android , Instants is positioning itself as a direct competitor to the fleeting, unfiltered social media movement.

The "One-and-Done" Experience: Staying true to its mission of "realness," photos shared on Instants disappear the moment they are viewed by the recipient. Hybrid DNA: The app serves as a deliberate hybrid between the spontaneous capture of BeReal and the ephemeral nature of Snapchat , stripping away the pressure to create ...
