Google AI Plus is now available for $4.99 per month and offers double the storage.
The entry-level Google AI subscription now offers 400GB of cloud storage, doubling the amount initially provided at launch.
Google is reducing the price of its AI Plus subscription from $7.99 to $4.99 per month while also increasing the included storage, making this offering more competitive against similar AI subscription tiers from other providers.
What’s new with the revised plan
The upgraded AI Plus plan now features 400GB of cloud storage, an increase from the previous 200GB that subscribers received since the plan's inception. The new price will be $4.99 per month, or the local equivalent, with the change taking effect during the next billing cycle rather than immediately. The storage enhancement will be implemented over the coming days.
📣We’re revising the price of our Google AI Plus plan to $4.99/mo💰or local equivalent (down from $7.99), while doubling the storage from 200GB to 400GB ☁️. You can now access tools to enhance your productivity and creativity, along with expanded space for your photos,…— Vikas Kansal (@vikaskansalHQ) June 8, 2026
Core benefits of the plan will remain the same. Subscribers will enjoy double the usage limits in the Gemini app compared to the free tier, a context window of 128,000 tokens, and access to features such as Daily Brief, Omni Flash video generation, and scheduled interactions. AI Plus members will also benefit from increased limits in NotebookLM, proofing tools in Gmail, and greater access in Google Flow, AI Studio, and Antigravity.
Additionally, Google is officially rebranding its $9.99 per month 2TB storage option as Google AI Plus, aligning it within the same product family.
How this fits into Google’s AI subscription offerings
In recent months, Google has been actively adjusting its AI subscription plans. In April, the company enhanced AI Pro with an added 5TB storage at no extra charge. At the I/O event last month, AI Ultra was introduced at a new entry price of $100 per month, while the highest tier dropped from $250 to $200 monthly.
The price reduction for AI Plus positions it more favorably against competitors like OpenAI’s $8 per month ad-supported ChatGPT Go plan. At $4.99, Google's offering is now the lowest-priced significant AI subscription from a top-tier provider.

reMarkable Paper Pure review: An outstanding digital slate that I find both appealing and frustrating.
If you enjoy writing or want to get back into the habit, it's unparalleled. However, if you are looking for digital conveniences, there are better alternatives.
Quick Review
I invested in the reMarkable concept years ago and have tried several slates, but the Paper Pure is the version I consistently return to. Priced at $399, it’s the entry-level E Ink tablet from the brand, replacing the aging reMarkable 2 by eliminating nearly everything you would expect from a 2026 device.
A humanoid robot climbed a volcano, with significant human assistance.
A modified Unitree G1 made it to the summit of Chimborazo in Ecuador, although human help was essential during the challenging parts.
A humanoid robot named Pemba has successfully reached the summit of Ecuador's Chimborazo volcano, a peak standing at 20,341 feet that gives a stark contrast to the notion that robots are taking over.
While the ascent is noteworthy, the details reveal substantial human involvement. Pemba, customized from a Unitree G1, managed the 16-hour climb with assistance from its team. The robot navigated independently during simpler sections, while people carried it through steeper, more difficult spots.
I visited BenQ’s lighting lab, and now my desk setup feels inadequate.
I used to view monitor light bars as unnecessary luxuries, but BenQ changed my perspective.
I have always considered desk lighting a secondary concern. Until recently, I was unaware of how much a proper lighting setup can transform my workspace. If the room was dim, I would simply turn on a lamp. Working in low light? Just dim the brightness. When my eyes fatigued after hours of writing, gaming, or editing, I would blame it on the screen I was using.
After visiting BenQ's lighting lab in Taiwan (during Computex 2026), my entire desk setup started to appear lazily assembled. Ironically, I had never seen monitor light bars as essential. You’ve probably seen those sleek desktop setups online—where there’s no bulky lamp base, just a simple light bar above the monitor casting a premium glow. It creates a specific impression about a workspace used by creative professionals.
