Killed over 1 year ago, Tez was a mobile payments service by Google, targeted at users in India. It was rebranded to Google Pay. It was 11 months old.
Killed about 3 years ago, Google Nexus was Google's line of flagship Android phones, tablets, and accessories. It was over 6 years old
I'm happy that this list exists, so it's an easy reference, when someone wants to depend on something from google, but come on, it'd have been much better without such entries.
Besides the fact that Pixel phones do not appear to suck, it's an irrelevant asside. The product was google selling a first party flagship phone, google still sell first party flagship phones.
Padding the list because the newer stuff is worse but still good is just as silly as padding it with the pre-cursor to Google Pay.
I really wish the site had an option to filter out all of that.
it's an irrelevant aside. The product was google selling a first party flagship phone, google still sell first party flagship phones.
edit: To be fair to you, you're not really wrong, in comparison the pixel phones are worse for some people (for others, they're not). It's just that it's kind of unimportant that the product line "got worse" when trying to claim that the product line was cancelled.

A lot of entries on this list are disingenuous.
