Google has eyes only on premium and nothing.

Everything by Google screams of expensive soon.

Google Home Max. $399? I think if you ain't a Google-freak audiophile the Google mini or Google Home will do.

Google Pixelbook. $999 + $99 for the pen?
Basically still a chromebook, at this price it seems a hard sell when there are alternatives. HP spectre, Microsoft Surfacebook.

Google Clips. $249. This thing kinda reminds me of a HTC Re. Maybe that's why Google end up acquiring talents from HTC too?
$249 is kinda expensive. I might probably grab one and play if the price was $199 or lower.

Google Pixel Buds. $159. You killed my headphone jack and you want $159 for the buds? No thank you.
Basically just an assistant extension on your earphones. Can really do with it.
Trying to speak with a native overseas when you need constant internet connection to access to Google translate is not going to work well in places where connection is bad. You'll be better off with an offline translator device like this. https://iamili.com/
Gimmicky.

Google offerings are expensive, but in Google's AI future. We can all dream, don't we.
