At this point Marques’ video is the event
Event starts in an hour btw
Google barely clicked upload on the announcement video and my man already has the two week impression up!
never knew Maques was a part time youtuber
Seeing the Pixel 10 hardware review before the actual event makes me think the event is going to be heavy AI focused
It’s crazy it’s been 10 years of Pixel
We got Marques releasing the Pixel 10 review video before the Google Pixel Launch Event.
He might have the pixel 11 with him as well
Your "we'll see how it holds up over time" made me think it would be cool to see a review of some 4-5 yo flagships to see how they've all comparatively held up over time.
