Google announced that its latest flagship AI model, Gemini 2.5 Pro, will be available for free to all Gemini app users. This means that the advanced features previously only accessible to Gemini Advanced subscribers ($9.99/month) are now available to a wider audience.
Google calls Gemini 2.5 Pro its "most intelligent AI model yet," boasting significant improvements in reasoning capabilities. The new model supports a variety of features, including app and browser extensions, file uploads, and seamless integration with Google's collaborative tool, Canvas. These updates aim to provide a smoother user experience and make it easier for users to select and remember their currently active Gemini model.
Gemini 2.5 Pro is currently live on the Gemini website and will roll out to the Gemini app on Android and iOS platforms in the coming days. While now publicly available, Google reminds users that Gemini 2.5 Pro is still in the experimental phase. Features such as app and extension integration, file uploads, and Canvas functionality are still under optimization. Furthermore, its strong performance on the LMArena leaderboard demonstrates its competitiveness in the AI field.
A standout feature of Gemini 2.5 Pro is its 1 million token context window. This means it can handle large amounts of data and maintain consistent context during long conversations. Google also plans to expand this to 2 million tokens to further enhance the model's memory and interaction capabilities, providing users with even more accurate results.
The launch of Gemini 2.5 Pro marks another significant breakthrough in Google's AI technology, aiming to make cutting-edge AI accessible to a broader user base.
