It’s amazing how underwhelming google’s product launch announcements are compared to apple’s. Not even trying to light up a platform holy war here, just saying that if you’re going through so much work as to create new generations of hardware, seems like something more than a press release is a good idea.
Given Google's severe corporate ADHD, who's willing to bet that Google will still be making watches or tablets in 5 years? Why would any third party develop apps for these platforms, given Google's record?
Apple’s announcements are all pre-recorded theatrics now. They are attention grabbing, over the top, and sensationalized to feel special.
Props to Google for actually doing their event live, cutting to the chase, and not scaring people into feeling like they will die if they don’t buy product X or Y
