Google seems to be testing bolding and underlining the title links in the search results snippets in the mobile search interface. Google is also testing a triangular format for the three dots icon used for the about this result feature.

This was captured by Brodie Clark, who shared a screenshot on Twitter; he said, "Google is now testing out a new mobile format for organic links, featuring darker text with a grey underline." He wonders if this will be the new format to match Google SGE in the future.

Here is that screenshot:
