Google has released a new #BestPhonesForever ad, it’s called ‘The Big Game’, and it’s a hoot, as were the previous ones. In this new ad, Apple’s iPhone becomes a motivational speaker, of sorts. It plays the role of a coach who is trying to motivate his team.

Why is he trying to motivate his team, though? Well, because of the Pixel’s new AI features. As per usual, this is Google’s way of taking a dig at Apple in an entertaining way.
Now, in this ad, iPhones find themselves in a locker room at halftime of a ‘Big Game’, a game against the Pixels. Coach iPhone decides to hold a speech in order to motivate his players, as they’re worried about Pixel’s new AI features.
He says “This game isn’t over yet”. To what one of the players says “But Coach, the other team keeps getting new AI features”. At that point, others start listing Google’s new features, as does the Coach as part of his speech.
Various Google AI features are mentioned here
Features such as Circle to Search and Video Boost features are mentioned. One of the players says “We’re doomed”. Coach iPhone doesn’t give up, however, not at all. He proceeds by saying “Sure, Team Pixel got advanced AI to fix group photos and summarize recordings and reduce noise in videos. But it doesn’t matter what you got on the inside. It’s what’s on the outside that counts”.
He then mentions some changes that the new iPhones have seen, such as a “different shaped charging port”, hinting at a Type-C charging port, and an Action Button too, amongst other outside changes.
To make things even funnier, at one point, one of the players/iPhones starts to ring, as a spam caller is on the other side. Towards the end of the ad, a Pixel appears, and iPhones says “I, um, lost my playbook. Can I borrow yours?”
This add has a duration of less than a minute. The video is embedded below in case you want to check it out. It sure is entertaining, as were all the previous ones.
