So, it's reported that the upcoming pixel 5 won't have the soli radar chip.

Makes sense to me, no pun intended

 

[eric002]

Hahaha Yeah, I'd have to completely agree though. I mean I know pixels have never had gimmicky features in the past, but with the soli radar chip I think it wreak havoc on more pixel buyers and pixel sales and anything else unfortunately

I see what you did there...

And I also think I'm okay with that feature being absent in the Pixel 5 line. I'm excited to hear more about it!

They should of did more with this , but if it goes not a problem.

 

[eric002]

Oh yeah, I feel agree! I mean it could be a massively useful feature I'm not sure why Google isn't further developing for motion sense.

 

[mustang7757]

Maybe they can't do more , not sure .

 

[eric002]

Yeah, dude, I'm hoping they can do more development / API creation. Motion sense radar soli chip has the potential of being immensely useful as long as Google doesn't give up on it like they did with Allo... I mean the problem with aloe was that they didn't market it correctly, which meant no one used it. Yes that gave birth to Google Assistant, but still it was a piece of messaging software Google created and gave up on and I just hope for a future pics of development that the same thing doesn't happen with motion sense.

 

[mustang7757]

That's the problem they put something out and give up..

 

[eric002]

Yeah, exactly. I'm not so sure why though. It's not like they're bad at software creation. Google is a software company and not a hardware company first and foremost.

 

[mustang7757]

Yup I agree

 

[eric002]

Ha, well, why thank you very much!

It always made more sense to me to use the Soli chip in smart display devices, not the phone. How often do people really have to interact with their phone using air gestures? Most of the time, the phone is in a user's hand.

I'd love it if my Google Home Max had Soli, and I could just wave at it when I'm listening to music.
