A few hours ago, an article was published that provided sales statistics for some of Google's travel products. Generally manufacturers only provide statistics for units sold if they want to boast about it, but in this case it is not.
According to the publication, Google would sell about 3.5 million units of Pixel 3, and much less, about 2 million, of Pixel 4.
Or Sales of the Pixel 3a did not reach those of the Pixel 3. This has to do with the fact that this model is designed to be a mass-market model.
Despite having the best camera in the Android ecosystem, Pixels failed to sell well. Goals? More.
Pixel 3A, update: This is the Nexus 5 we've been waiting for
The Google Pixel 3A is a phone that has caught the attention of its amazing camera, but what else does this cell phone offer? we will refresh you.
Pixels are inexpensive, precisely
When we technical fans talk about cellphone prices, we sometimes risk forgetting that for people a terminal of 300 euros is expensive. It doesn't matter if the price is worth it or not, it's some money, at least in Spain, that costs to pay for the terminal.
So, even though there are markets like America or Germany where the low retail price of mobile devices is high, many people want a more affordable or less expensive smartphone.
Google had something right for this Nexus 5, but moving it to Pixels preceded any attempt to have a signal for the best value for money. Pixel, Pixel 2, Pixel 3 and Pixel 4 have been the terminals that have been steadily rising in price and are at their peak in this category.
In an effort to gain market share, the company introduced the Pixel 3a and 3a XL last year, but even in these models the price was much higher than the average cost that users often pay for Android phones. Yes, Apple has the highest sales price, but that's the exception to the rule.
More self-development
If you ask anyone what is most important to their mobile phone, they are definitely in doubt between the camera and the battery. When we talk about Google we can't say that we have complaints about cameras, in addition to various various losses. Where almost all pixels do impurities are not independent.
Last year it was very clear about the Pixel 4 issue, and we can't say that the participants didn't know it before it was introduced, but we think they had nowhere to use it.
This means that Google mobile phones are automatically discarded for the most part.
Marketing … almost nothing
When Xiaomi began to gain momentum in China, OPPO saw its first threat. Contrary to the rival company's online strategy, OPPO has opted for a strong investment in analog marketing and the opening of virtual stores.
Years later Xiaomi repeated that strategy, with great success in countries such as Spain.
Google's mobiles are not accessible to the majority of users, who go to buy their devices in supermarkets or stores such as Amazon. In recent times Google has increased its investment in advertising, but it is far from rivals like Samsung or Huawei.
Software failure?
As if that wasn't enough, Google has indicated that sometimes its mobile software is not as defined as it should be at launch time. A good example of this we had in the fall of last year when we found out that the Pixel 4 face recognition didn't pay attention to whether or not our eyes were closed.
Google solves your Pixel 4 face recognition problem
Google Pixel 4 has launched its biggest issue with a face recognition system in a security update in April 2020
And we've seen hardware failures, like the Pixel 2 XL screen.
Google has enough money and resources to create the kind of mobile app that earns the world's top performers. Until a few years ago we believed that it was not an easy task, it was not right to anger Samsung or Huawei. At the moment we are beginning to think that it has no power to do something like this made by other companies.
