History

It was announced during Google's "Made By Google" event on October 4, 2017.

It was released for sale on January 27, 2018.[1] With a flashing light emitting diode (LED) that indicates it is recording, Google Clips automatically captures video clips at moments its machine learning algorithms determine to be interesting or relevant.[2][3]

Google Clips' artificial intelligence (AI) will learn the faces of people so it can learn to take photos with certain people.[4] Google Clips can automatically set lighting and framing.[4]

It had 16 GB of storage built-in storage and could record clips for up to 3 hours.[5] This camera was originally priced at $249 in the United States.[5]

The product was pulled from the Google Store on October 15, 2019.[6] Google has said that the product would be supported until the end of December 2021.[7]

Reception

The Independent wrote that Google Clips is "an impressive little device, but one that also has the potential to feel very creepy."[8]

According to The Verge's review, "it didn't capture anything special" over a couple weeks worth of testing.[7][9] This, added with the steep price, made Google Clips a tough sell.
