Google introduce the second-generation family of Made by Google products. We’ve heard
from so many of you that our new products have been helpful in your
everyday lives—whether you’re taking stunning portrait mode photos with the new Pixel 2, getting hands-free help around the house with the Google Home Mini, or using real-time translation
in 40 languages with Google Pixel Buds.
But even with all the great
things these products can do, building hardware is…
hard, and there’s
still a long journey ahead.
That’s why I’m delighted that we’ve officially closed our deal with HTC,
and are welcoming an incredibly talented team to work on even better
and more innovative products in the years to come. These new colleagues
bring decades of experience achieving a series of “firsts” particularly
in the smartphone industry—including bringing to market the first 3G
smartphone in 2005, the first touch-centric phone in 2007, and the first
all-metal unibody phone in 2013. This is also the same team we’ve been
working closely with on the development of the Pixel and Pixel 2.
As
our hardware business enters its third year, we remain committed to
building and investing for the long run. Today, we start digging in with
our new teammates, guided by the mission to create radically helpful
experiences for people around the world, by combining the best of
Google’s AI, software and hardware.
Finally,
with the official close of this deal, we’re expanding our footprint in
the Asia Pacific region. Taiwan is a key innovation and engineering hub
for Google, and Taipei will now become the largest Google engineering
site in APAC.
