Google’s new Pixel 10 ads made me go ‘wait, WHAT are they trying to sell?’
Summary
The article critiques two new advertisements for the six-month-old Pixel 10 phones, finding their messaging confusing and potentially problematic. The first ad, "With 100x Zoom," suggests using the zoom feature to deceptively fake a better view from a hotel room, despite Google admitting the footage is simulated and uses additional hardware. The second ad, "Moving on," is narrated from the perspective of a jilted phone, which the author found unsettlingly reminiscent of the voice of Joe Goldberg from the show *You*, leading to confusion over the intended message.
