I went straight to camera quality, software integration, and battery life.
Start by framing the goal: making Pixel the best smartphone means winning on user experience, differentiation, and ecosystem. Then choose three priority areas that leverage Google's strengths (AI, software, services) and address key gaps (hardware, market perception), and justify each with user impact and business potential.
Pro tip: Show that you understand the competitive landscape and Google's unique position: don't just list features, but explain how each priority creates a defensible advantage and ties to Google's mission. Also, acknowledge trade-offs and how you'd measure success.
Define what 'best smartphone' means: best for whom? Consider dimensions like user satisfaction, market share, profitability, and ecosystem lock-in. Align on metrics such as NPS, sales, or engagement.
Briefly assess Pixel's strengths (camera, AI, clean Android) and weaknesses (distribution, brand perception, hardware specs). Compare with Apple and Samsung to identify gaps and opportunities.
Select three high-impact areas where Google can differentiate and win. Ensure they are distinct, cover different aspects (e.g., hardware, software, ecosystem), and are feasible.
For each area, explain why it's critical: user pain points, competitive advantage, alignment with Google's strengths, and potential ROI. Use data or examples to support.
Briefly describe how you'd execute (e.g., partnerships, R&D) and how you'd measure success (KPIs). Show awareness of trade-offs and risks.
