They are the fresh blood and moving fast in everything. > Maps will have offline navigation soon. Why use Bing or Apple maps? I use Nokia Here Maps. They have offline navigation today. On my device. Which is not Android. > Android is everywhere. Not on iPhones. Not on content-producing devices. > Google Now and their new Google Now features look great. 2015s version of Clippy. Predictive analysis is not ready. Beware of the hype curve. > Is there any space that they are not in / won't enter? Their business is still revolving around ads. They are lagging in enterprise. They cannot beat Amazon at shopping. They cannot beat Apple/Microsoft at premium device design quality. They are not perfect. PS: It's great that Google exists, but don't put it on pedestal. |
