google he goes all in on his own hardware products, like the Pixel line of smartphones, but does so at the expense of its services and partners. Less money (and staff) for projects that rely on third-party products and much more investment in devices manufactured directly by Google.
For example, according to the site The Information, Google has weakened the following distribution Google TV, an operating system used on some Sony Smart TVs and TLCs. Some executives and employees who previously worked at Google TV are said to have moved to the departments charged with tracking the development of Google TV. wear operating system and the first Pixel tablet.
We also find this strategy in the internal economies of the division that manages the Google Assistant: the resources once intended to guarantee the optimization of the voice assistant on the speakers, telephones and even cars of third-party companies have now been diverted to the general development of the product and its optimization to Google branded products.
According to De Information, this strategy will also have important consequences. Most likely, not all of Google’s partner companies — that is, those using its operating systems and services — will continue to receive the same attention. Google has identified in Samsung, OnePlus And Xiaomi as a premium partner, while eclipsing all other brands. This may delay the release of the latest patches and features. The updates could come first on smartphones from Samsung and Xiaomi and a little later on the products of other brands.
Google is said to have made this decision after reading the declining sales of Samsung and, more generally, of virtually all other manufacturers of Android smartphones and tablets. By bolstering its hardware division, and thus stepping into the forefront of the smartphone market, Google hopes to gain ground from Apple and defend its company.
