Despite the Pixel 6 series being in the news over various bugs and issues, the Google flagship lineup has seen great success in the market. Now, an official financial report from the company has revealed that the new phones have even managed to break past its previous sales records.
Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Alphabet (parent company of Google), stated in the earning’s call that the Pixel 6 series has set an “all time quarterly sales record.” The senior official attributed the latest Pixel phones’ success to its new real time translation tools (Via AndroidPolice). Unfortunately, the Search Engine giant did not reveal any accurate figures and groups its hardware products along with its software as “Google Services.”
It includes Android, Chrome, Google Maps, Search, Google Play, and YouTube as well. But looking at the overall financial figures, we can clearly tell that the brand saw a notable rise, as its revenue hit 69 billion US Dollars in Q4 2021. This also marked a noticeable bump compared to the fourth and final quarter of 2020, in which the company had a revenue of 52.8 billion US Dollars. Meanwhile, profits also saw a boost, reaching 26 billion US Dollars in 2021, compared to 19 billion US Dollars from back in 2020.
With the Pixel series launching sometime between October and November, its clear great sales of the premium grade smartphones helped Google boost its revenue. However, it is still doubtful if the Pixel 6 is actually the best selling Pixel ever, considering it isn’t as widely available as its predecessors and has only been available since October 2021. But with its current pace, it might become the most popular Pixel model.
