As per the AC blog: https://www.androidcentral.com/google-clips
Honestly, I think I will pass, and for a few reasons.
1. The price. $250 is in the same price point as some very good point and shoots, from Nikon to Sony.
2. The framerate. 15 fps....ummm, no. So roughly two thirds the frame rate of movies, half the framerate of most video games. Here is a good video on what that would look like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfiHFqnPLZ4
3. Relatively small storage. It has Android 7.0...so probably about 6-7 GB is used for the OS partitions. I can't find what resolution this records at. Given the small storage, I think Google would have been fine with shooting for 1080 30 fps.

Anyone interested, though?
