The design is basically an iPhone with a camera visor. Its (front) screen looks just like any other Android device.
Not sure if paying an extra $100 for AI features is worth it. In a months time of using the device we will all be bored with it.

AI good or bad doesn’t bother me as A “feature” or “Perk” with exception to replacing human jobs of course???? Looks cool and hope it does well for them. Only thing is AI can be a god send or curse with time. Since its still evolving and improving, its a costly gamble.

All Sizzle, No Steak. This is a $599 phone, tops. The reason they are charging the extra here, is to keep that Gemini server running. Spending 20+ minutes of the announcement on Gemini, and running several of the Demos on competitors devices, sort of says what Google thinks of these devices. This is another inferior phone from Google.

Use the phone in person if you can. You might be surprised. People get caught up on the Tensor chip and benchmarks but that doesn’t tell the whole story.

I feel these *new” AI features will get old and tired in no time, just like the fancy memojies on iPhones. I don’t know anybody, including my 2 kids and their friends, who use memojies any more. All really useful AI features can still be accessed through computer anyways. Buying a new phone seems pointless just for accessing fancy AI features.

@vladimirkraus1438

7:05 iPhone takes sharper photos because it uses incredible amount of artificial oversharpening. It adds sharpness to places where it is non-existent in reality. Some pictures of nature (grass, foliage) look very artificial on iPhone. I have not yet tested the new Pixel so I cannot compare, but I lived with iPhone 15 Pro for about 6+ months and eventually got rid of it especially because of artificially looking photos of nature.
