Google pokes fun at Apple copying Pixel features ahead of iPhone 17 redesign [Video]

Google released a humorous ad titled “Responding to the Rumors” as part of its “#BestPhonesForever” campaign, joking about how Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 reportedly copies features initially introduced by Google Pixel phones.
The ad features a mock podcast between Pixel and iPhone discussing Pixel features like Night Sight, Magic Eraser, and homescreen widgets that appeared later on iPhones.
It playfully highlights the ongoing rivalry and mutual feature copying in the mature smartphone market, ending with a mirrored phrase from Apple that Pixel had just said.
This playful jab contextualizes the trend of smartphone makers borrowing design and software ideas while engaging audiences with witty competition.
