Discussion: Do you think Google's hardware devision(s) could survive independently as part of a hypothetical anti-trust spin-off? (lemmy.world)

Rough list of Google Hardware lines:

  • Pixel (smartphones, earbuds, Chromebooks, tablets, smartwatches).
  • Google Tensor SoC (semiconductors) and Google TPU hardware
  • Google Nest / Home (home IoT and smart speakers)

Let's assume Android is spun of on its own and that Google Cloud Platform is out of scope for the discussion.

Their TPU and semiconductor business may be in a better position, but at least with Tensor SoC, the team has never worked with 3rd party clients and this is a while different ball game from an internal only approach.

well they could at least continue to sell to Google
