After Apple recently announced the upcoming features for iOS 26, both Samsung and now Google have taken the opportunity to playfully tease the tech giant for finally implementing features that have long been available on their own devices.
Google's latest "#BestPhonesForever" campaign includes a video showcasing a conversation between a Pixel and an iPhone, highlighting the similarities between iOS 26 features and those found on Pixels. The video humorously points out that features like auto-translation of messages, Hold Assist, and call screening have been present on Pixels for several years before making their way to Apple devices.
Despite the friendly banter, it's not uncommon for tech companies to draw inspiration from their competitors, ultimately benefiting consumers with improved products and services.
