New strategy works: Pixel 6 breaks Google sales records

Google has published a report on the results of the fourth quarter of 2021 and boasted of its achievements and the popularity of the new Pixel 6 flagships.

So, Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet (Google's parent company), said that the corporation broke sales records in the last quarter, and all thanks to the Pixel 6 family.

“In the fourth quarter, we set a Pixel quarterly sales record. This happened despite an extremely difficult environment in the supply chain. The reaction to Pixel 6 from our customers and operating partners was incredibly positive,” said Sundar Pichai.

Unfortunately, the exact numbers are not called and it is not yet clear whether the Pixel 6 is the company's best-selling smartphone of all time. But since most "Pixels" launch in the fall, around October or November, that also means this "quarterly sales record" is measured against any other flagship Pixel launch. Therefore, we won’t be surprised if the Pixel 6 will officially receive the title of Google’s best-selling smartphone soon.

By the way, the new flagships have every reason for this. Firstly, they got an updated design that really looks very cool. Secondly, based on the proprietary Tensor processor. Thirdly, smartphones are equipped with one of the best cameras on the market.

By the way, Google's segmented results don't break hardware into separate categories — it's all just a part of Google Services, which includes Android, Chrome, Google Play, and YouTube. However, this segment has grown significantly over the past quarter, with revenues of over $69 billion, up from $52.8 billion in 2020, and operating income of nearly $26 billion (up from $19 billion in Q4 2020).
