The new feature is now available effective yesterday, August

Google said these video previews will only play when users’ devices
are connected to a Wi-Fi network. Remember that in order to ensure these
previews works on mobile networks, the user will need to enable it from the

Though the roll-out has kicked-off since yesterday, the new
