Google’s meditation video on how to switch to Pixel is hilarious
- A new official video from Google is here. It explains how to switch to Pixel from your current phone.
- The video is designed as a sham meditation instruction and is absolutely funny.
- It’s nice when companies put a little more effort into these things.
Close your eyes. Live in the moment. Breath in, breath out. Accept your inner peace. Namaste. These are the statements you hear in the countless meditation instruction videos on YouTube. However, what you usually don’t hear is “plug in your pixel” or “don’t worry if you have thousands of latte pictures.” That’s exactly what you hear in Google’s new official video on how to switch to Pixel from your current phone.
The video makes fun of the deluge of meditation videos you can find online by showing generic nature clips while a voice over explains how to transfer your files. The narrator sounds like she’s lost between the realms but still has time to make brilliant sayings like, “You can’t screw this up as long as you trust the process.”
Connected: The worst marketing ever by smartphone brands is failing
After watching the first time I had to double check that this is one officially Video from Google itself. In other words, if someone is looking for a way to switch to Pixel, they’ll find it and watch it. Not sure if Google is trolling or just being unconventional, but I love it.
Now it is possible that Google will just put this up temporarily and eventually tear it down. That would be unfortunate, but it would make more sense to have a “normal” instructional video for this purpose. If it does, you should see this ASAP. It would be a shame for anyone not to experience it.
“Hello jackhammer. Must be the road works. “
