Google is poking fun at Apple in a lighthearted video which welcomes iPhone to RCS texting.
The world is healing: iPhone now has third party app store support (in the EU), third party NFC payments (also EU) and now RCS texting. To welcome the iPhone to the world of RCS Google released a lighthearted video of a Pixel and an iPhone chatting about Apple’s recent decision. The video is part of Google’s #BestPhonesForever series on YouTube.
In the video the Pixel and iPhone talk about how the two have had “communication issues” in the past. They also acknowledge the iPhone finally deciding to switch to RCS, which the Pixel reiterates is the modern standard for texting that other phones have been using for a while.
The video then mentions the benefits of RCS on iPhone, namely the ability to send much higher quality media between Android and iOS.
