Google has once again taken a playful jab at Apple, this time through one of its #BestPhonesForever ads. The company released a new video on YouTube titled “Responding to the Rumors,” in which the iPhone humorously critiques itself for adopting features that were originally found on Android devices.

In this latest video, the Pixel and iPhone are depicted as friends engaging in a light-hearted podcast discussion about rumors surrounding the design of the upcoming iPhone. One notable rumor mentioned is that “iPhone 17 Leaks Look A Lot Like Google Pixel.” The iPhone quips, “It’s crazy!

Can you imagine me doing the same thing you did first, years later?” to which the Pixel retorts, “Sounds pretty far-fetched.” This exchange serves as a clear shot at Apple, suggesting that the company has borrowed ideas that Android has had for a while. The video continues with Google highlighting specific examples of these borrowed features.

For instance, it points out that Google’s Night Sight was introduced before Apple launched its own ‘Night Mode’ a year later. The Pixel humorously remarks, “total coincidence” to drive the point home.

Additionally, the iPhone brings up Google’s Magic Eraser, which Apple launched as ‘Clean Up’ three years after its debut. While not identical, the features serve similar purposes.

The discussion also touches on the longstanding availability of widgets in Android, which have been a staple since its inception. To wrap it up, the Pixel reminds viewers that rumors are just that—rumors—only for the iPhone to echo the same sentiment.

Fans of Google’s #BestPhonesForever series will likely continue to enjoy these humorous exchanges, as the brand shows no signs of slowing down this creative marketing approach.
