Google Highlights Google Now In Grammys Commercial For The Nexus 4

During the Grammys award show on Sunday
night, Google aired a new commercial highlighting the Nexus 4 and its
Google Now service found within Jelly Bean.
The first dedicated Nexus 4 ad was a
Christmas-themed effort that went down rather quietly last month,
showcasing the device’s camera. However, this new advert — details of
which were revealed on Google+ by Vic Gundotra, who heads up development
of Google’s social network — is its first big-time US ad spot for the
(Android 4.2) Jelly Bean-powered device and the focus is interesting.
Rather than going into detail on the
handset itself, which is built by LG, the advertisement highlights the
features of Google Now, showcasing a number of ways it can be used via
examples from across the world. In the extended 60-second version of the
video, below, Google Now is used to check the weather, plan and carry
out a trip, locate a restaurant, perform a translation on the go, and
video chat through a Hangout.
Indeed, Google Now aims to make your
life a little less challenging while you pursue your goals. It is a good
thing that Google Now works on multiple devices, otherwise you would
still be facing the supreme challenge of finding a Nexus 4.
Apart from its aggressive web campaign
for the Nexus 4 and Google Now, the company hasn’t exactly highlighted
the features to the masses via television campaigns. Now that Google’s
Nexus 4 stock looks to be steadying, it’s ramping up that arena.
