Apple to launch cellular connected Apple Watch later this year, report says
-
Google's Pixel XL priced like Apple's iPhone 7 Plus, but it lacks numerous key features
The launch screams, "no investment" by Alphabet. Hence it was low key, super short, used only commodity components, available only through Verizon, and priced high compared to it's market, Android competitors (iPhone is not a competitor). Pixel will be a minority product in the US and much smaller in the rest of the world.
It packs a lot of pixels into the screens, requiring a much bigger battery - nearly 2X in both cases vs iPhone 7. But this will not cause switching from iPhone. Samsung, with a superior phone, will loss business to Pixel, due to battery issues.
