Google: don’t do it anymore!

The story repeats itself. What at the time was considered by the competition as a controversial decision by Apple, is today the example to follow. So, among all the novelties presented by Google during the event that it played this week, the company also announced the end of the headphone jack on the Pixel 6a.

The recently announced high-end Pixel will carry over this novelty. The funny thing is that just a few months ago the company parodied a video in the style of those featured by former Apple design chief Jony Ive, to reinforce the presentation of the 3.5 mm jack port on the Pixel 5a.

Of course, this is not the first time. Google mocked the ‌iPhone‌ 7’s lack of headphone jack while unveiling its original Pixel smartphone in 2016, and at this point the idea might be a little funny. However, introduces the Pixel 2 without the headphone port a year later. And six years later, he chose to repeat the formula.

The joke no one understands

In August of last year, Google published a video in which it presented, with obvious similarity, as it was done at Apple in the Ive era, the features of your Pixel 5a. Especially, focused on the presence of the headphone jackwhich at the time was not only nothing new, but their own devices already lacked it.

Sure, Google is not going alone to the wall of the accused. In fact, over the years he’s been the lightest in teasing Apple.

Hundreds of times, Samsung took the same marketing approach to eventually imitate Apple.. In 2018, the Korean company also took advantage of the lack of a headphone jack on the ‌iPhone‌ X in one of its “Ingenius” ads promoting the Galaxy S9. Five months later, it presented the Galaxy A8s, its first smartphone without a headphone jack.

And it surely won’t be the last time we see something like this.
