“An epic display of Google AI.
All the magic of Gemini on Pixel's largest screen.“
It is not only completely cringeworthy, but also nonsensical. How does having a bigger display affect AI at all? What sets it apart from other Pixels? Nothing.
I am honestly shocked that this company can keep putting out garbage like this. Any smaller company or startup would go bankrupt and cannot afford to be this sloppy and incompetent. This is only possible if your company has enormous cash reserves and monopolistic market position, where you can eat losses and fail repeatedly on epic scales.
Never in my life I will buy any Google product. They so easily kill products used by millions without second thought. This destroyed my trust in the company, they just don’t care enough, it’s all about profit and their monopolistic position.
I hope other smaller companies with better ethics will emerge
Well, from the phone viewpoint people buy them to get a less garbage-filled android experience. Most consumers don't really expect phones to last forever... because they seldom do.
My comment is still valid for software killed in the mobile space. I don’t know what other people feel but I have a strange feeling that, because they have so much money, anything other than search is built temporarily. All their software, their apps and services aren’t build to last. It’s built for now and later they will abandon to start from scratch. It’s easier to start over from scratch with a new team than to make what’s been built last.
That comes from a shortsighted vision that I dislike.
Look at the marketing text on the Pixel Fold (https://store.google.com/us/product/pixel_9_pro_fold?hl=en-U...):
