This is another addition to a whole slew of tech / "hip "marketing videos inspired by the format of Apple's "iPhone 7 event in 108 seconds - Don't Blink" ad. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jk6sz25OZgw&pp

I think the original was pretty interesting and worked in context, but doesn't work for every product.

The contrast in quality between what you've linked and Google's is staggering. I actually did not blink while watching this video and felt totally engaged. The information was presented at a great pace and was easily digestible.
It was largely one word at a time, supported by a simple but effective visual. The Google one is just filled with text, so I had to pause repeatedly to figure out what it even was. They’re not comparable.
