- Google AI Plus dropped its monthly price to $4.99 from $7.99, a roughly 38% reduction announced on June 8, 2026.
- Google AI Plus doubled its cloud storage from 200GB to 400GB, usable across Gmail, Drive, and Photos.
- Google kept all other Google AI Plus features intact, including 2x higher Gemini usage limits, access to Omni in Gemini, the new Daily Brief, and the upcoming AI Inbox in Gmail.
- Droid Life flagged the move as unusual, noting the outlet typically reports subscription price increases rather than simultaneous price drops and feature upgrades.
Why it matters: Subscribers pay $3 less per month while getting twice the storage, making Google AI Plus a more competitive entry-level tier in the Google One lineup. The move is notable because simultaneous price drops and feature upgrades are rare from Google, which has trended toward subscription cost increases across services like YouTube Premium.
