  1. I hate that I have to wait for embargoed reviews after the release to actually get people’s reactions to the phone, and especially the new cameras—but again, my point is that Google *could* have taken advantage of that to actually nerd out about these cameras, dive into why and *how* they changed things, and set the narrative.

    Instead, it was basically, “They’re our best cameras yet! The new Tensor chip makes them great! Here are some marketing demos!” NERD OUT ABOUT WHY

  6. If you’ve not read @[email protected]’s excellent piece about the Pixel 11 cameras, I highly recommend it btw! But WHY WASN’T IT PART OF THE PRESENTATION AT ALL?? Even if it’s not the same event, I would love a presentation from the people building the honestly impressive gadgets we carry around to shine a light on all of the engineering that goes into them.

    This is the compelling part of the story to me.

  11. I understand that tech should be about the experience—what it enables, what problems it solves—rather than being about specs; I have a background in user experience design, after all! But these events *used* present a problem, then show us the nerdy tech and engineering that went into solving that problem.

    Get Isaac Reynolds up on stage to talk about why people are tired of smartphone cameras, then nerd out about how the new camera pipeline solves that. Show me graphics!

  16. Combined with my growing disdain of Google as a company/brand and absolute disinterest in AI-for-AI’s-sake, I almost didn’t even watch the Made By Google event yesterday. I did pull it up while working out of sheer curiosity, but I could have skipped it. It wasn’t for me.

    The format is just… cringe. I understand why it exists but it’s not at all filling the same void as previous events that were actually about the technology.

  21. I used to be super excited by tech presentations for new devices because they seemed to be targeting the enthusiast/nerd/technologist audience with the understanding that they would then go forth and tell their friends about why the gadgets were so cool.

    They’ve *always* been marketing events, but at least the audience was nerdy and thus the content would get into the nerdy details a bit. Now it feels like they’re just mainstream marketing events.
