As an iPhone user who hasn't touched Android in years:

You could literally replace that special marketing video at the top of the page [1] with any other Android / Google phone and I wouldn't even be able to tell the difference.

Just feels like a bunch of shiny blah without telling me anything useful. Might as well replace with a toaster. Maybe that's the point...

On a less critical note though, glad Google is pressing cheaper phones. The standard for a reasonable phone is all over town these days

What specifically stands out to you about that being an ad for an Android phone instead of an iPhone? I can't see a huge differentiation.
That's my perception of all phones, iPhones included.
Pretty standard marketing for all phones and "smart" devices these days
