I think there’s a very high chance it’s net positive. It’s growing quickly and approaching 10% marketshare for premium phones (the most profitable segment) in the US. https://axis-intelligence.com/google-pixel-statistics/ They’re also strongly tied in with Google Fi which is almost certainly very profitable. | ||

It is net positive for keeping folks in the Google Ads funnel. That is Androids purpose after all. | ||

agreed h/w negative, but how far removed is pixel from android itself and then the ad tech platform, playstore, etc in general? | ||
