My guess is that Google just doesn't care at this point. "Money keeps flowing anyway" is the sentiment that comes across.

- pmlnr 6y agoYeah, that mindset is the reasons why M$ has no mobile presence any more.
- yoz-y 6y agoWas. They might not have an OS but their mobile apps are up to speed and they provide backend infrastructure to a sizeable chunk of others.
- 4ggr0 6y agoWell I mean, there's the Surface Duo, right? Granted, feels more like a tech-demo than an actual product.
- meowster 6y agoI saw one in a Best Buy. I tried to check it out, but it needed to be reflashed (I don't remember what was wrong with it, it was months ago). I was there to buy a phone, and they might have made a sale, but someone dropped the ball.
- 4ggr0 6y agoFor me it's the price. I feel okay spending 2.5k on a gaming PC or a mountain bike. But a smartphone for over $500 is just excessive for my usage. As long as the camera is good enough, I don't really care. I would really like to own a foldable phone, but not at the current prices.
- Traubenfuchs 6y agoMaybe I am naive, but I would expect some chain of responsibility from the CEO down to the lowest intern. And "all our apps just stopped working world wide" or "we haven't released an app update for 2 months for most of our apps that are used by... probably billions of people worldwide" should be events that would receive scrutiny from upper level management?
