Yes, I was a weird, nerdy kid and yes, I was one of the A/V geeks. These are some of my stories. Don't look at me like that.

Google launched new phones and watches yesterday, but they left a MASSIVE gap where a new tablet should be! OnePlus is ALL too happy to jump in with one of the best Android tablets of the year. https://somegadgetguy.com/2025/08/21/oneplus-pad-3-updated-massive-improvement/
Here's my long term follow up, and wouldnt you know it, I'm seeing BIG performance improvements after this last update...
Yeah. Really no way around it. This Pixel Launch was a bad show. You could see how much money was spent on AstroTurfing celeb endorsements and hosting. The staging and presentations were less engaging than QVC. There were no big reveals. It felt horribly inauthentic.
And this is for PIXEL TEN. The TENTH Pixel was something of an afterthought in most of the demos and presentations. Just remember how wild the reactions were for iPhone X.
The hottest trending topic in tech right now is the price hike on Playstation. Google completely dropped the ball here.
