#62does anyone know why 12 out of 13 photos on this website show only black people? Is Google tailoring to a specific segment of the market?
They're emphasizing how inclusive the camera is, was one of the segments on the video. Historically some smartphone cameras have done poorly with brightness / saturation of darker skin tones I believe.
The "equitable" camera is akin to a SNL skid.

#63>We aren’t in your country yet.
New year, same shit again.
I wonder who are the target of these phones really are? Never seen anyone using a Pixel out in the wild
Feels like a pet project of Google to me. Like "we make Android so we better make some phones too otherwise people don't take us seriously" idk

#64What’s the differentiation against an iPhone? Presumably both phones are fast and take great photos and have an app ecosystem. But the iPhone is likely faster, probably has longer battery, and will last longer as a phone - I know people using Apple phones several generations old and still getting security updates. Apple also offers better privacy and their built in services like Maps are really good now.
If I were Google what I would do is make a more open phone. One with side loading, customization, repairability, and transparency as first class considerations. Otherwise it all comes off as a second class offering that’s just like anything else.

#65They bumped support to 5 years, interesting. Short support duration is a common complaint from Android users.
Its historically because qualcomm cuts support so you have to buy new phone, new chips.

#66Not a fan of the design of the Pixel or iPhone. They both have these cold, sterile design that doesn't look like it was designed to be used and held by a human hand. It was designed to be looked at or for curated display in an Apple Store. And what's with all the flat design, we need skeumorphism and warmth back in industrial and UI design. I prefer the soap bar design which seems to have been forgotten. And no more…
I agree. I had a Palm Pre and tried a Palm Pre 3 and they were truly delightful objects to hold. Things like the Unihertz Atom and TCL Palm phone still exist but occupy a miniscule niche.
Though ultimately I get why slate/phablet phones won out with their larger screens.

#67The store was down, but these are the links: Overview: https://store.google.com/product/pixel_6_pro?hl=en-GB Buy: https://store.google.com/config/pixel_6_pro?hl=en-GB Weirdly I kept seeing an internal MOMA login page asking for an @google.com login. So clearly something is broken (I do not work at Google). Edit: Past all of those problems... error R013 when trying to check out. Edit: Oh well... I missed out. Sold out…
I finally got it in my cart but I can't checkout (Error code: R013, or R008). Somehow the leather case is already "sold out" (not "out of stock") so I guess some people can check out :(
I bet it's not available yet.

Coming from google PR machine it's obviously being strongly ideological. They're so full of their twisted vision of diversity that it turns into some kind of anti logic, as you noticed it's becoming the literal opposite of diversity
