Why would apple want it
Because those who love iPhone buy from apple, and now those who hate iPhone also buy from apple 💰
I will never give Apple any money, they are the scourge of the Earth. They want to bind people to closed proprietary hardware, and create exclusive walled gardens. They are the worst thing to ever happen to technology.
Pixel is a android phone with small market presence. It is more of a brand, that is manufactured by mostly external companies. Why would Apple possibly want it, or gain anything in the process ,?
It'll be like how mars, snickers and m&ms are all produced by the same company, the illusion of choice
its android.. Playstore revenue etc is going to google. android is not sticky, people can switch to samsung or other androids when they want. why would apple promote anything android ? candy analogy applies does not apply here.
I would rather have another brand to choose from
Competition is good for consumers
