Everyone would have been happier if they had waited another year before including it, while giving us the ultrawide angle camera we actually wanted.

This project was from 4 or 5 years ago and still it just looks like a prototype.
Where did fancy features gone that ATAP introduced using finger motions?

[alish]

People are gonna call it a gimmick but the potential for the technology behind it seems amazing.

Pixel 4's radar feature used to help me make 3D Animations, by helping me understand how the curve behaves when I move the phone like the way I want my character to move.
The future was bright!
Sad it got killed

For skipping songs xDDD OMG Google please include snaps, turns, and other motions for volume, sliders, exc.

[OfficialIsaac]

Still waiting for the ability to screen calls here in the UK. :D

[jamesjackson]

Thank you for all your hard work! This is truly a start to the future!

Man flicking so hard like he got a fly thete

With that small battery its gonna die soon before can sense a motion sense.

[DoorisJ]

And on the plus side it only eats your battery up moderately

[rialdyfahmi]

Samsung galaxy s4 already had that feature a few years ago

We've had hand gestures for years. Nobody wants them whether they're radar or camera.

man this was ahead of its time, sad it got killed

[gflav]

disappointing compared to what was advertised years ago. And all reviewers are saying it misses a lot. But this can only get better from here!

[mrjasonlu]

When will the SDK be released for developers?

[codedfotography]

Amazing tech my dream to work at Google

[jakovs]

Writing this from pixel 4, never used motion sensor since I got the phone.I'd rather have wide angle camera and battery with more juice.

[rockleone]

Wow. Motion sensing. As if they didn’t look at all the other phones that failed which had that feature.

[muhammedhussainb]

This is the reason why pixel 4 is not released in India 🤨

[giftonunkun]

This is great and all but where's the ultra wide lens that literally everybody wanted?
