The smartphone industry is hopeless. Samsung continues to chase Apple's designs, claiming that is what customers want, which is ironic since that is all they now offer, so there is no true choice. Yet when they did the first Note and foldable that's all people talked about! People want new designs!

I think I was pretty close, writing this editorial out before the event actually streamed. The only thing I'd add, Trevor Noah did an amazing job with absolutely terrible segments co-hosted by awkward Google execs. Otherwise, swing and a miss for Pixel 11 and Made By Google '26.

Well. I wasn't planning on publishing anything on the Pixel 11 until later in the afternoon, but Google doesn't seem to mind reviews going live from all their hand picked influencers. So here's my reaction to Made by Google '26 (before the even has streamed). somegadgetguy.com/2026/08/12/m...
