Daydream isn’t the only Google casualty, as Google Clips seemingly killed too
June 25, 2025
Google confirmed yesterday that it killed off theDaydream VR platform, saying it would no longer certify devices and that it would halt sales of the VR headset. But this isn’t the only Mountain View casualty this week.
Google’sproduct support page— which lists all products sold by the company — no longer lists theGoogle Clipscamera and first-generationPixel Buds(h/t:Droid-Life).
We’re not surprised to see first-generation Pixel Buds no longer listed by the firm, as asuccessorwas announced at thePixel 4event yesterday (October 15). But the absence of Google Clips is pretty notable, as the search giant didn’t reveal a successor yesterday.
The decision to seemingly remove Google Clips from the Google Store suggests that the product wasn’t the commercial and/or critical success that the firm was hoping for. The camera used machine learning to automatically record and take snaps, although it has a shutter button too.
It’s certainly understandable that Google may have given up on the device, as its $249 price tag made it more expensive than many action cameras and budget phones. But it definitely seems like some Google Clips smarts were added to Pixel phones in the form of thePhotobooth mode.
Our own Edgar Cervantes thought the camera was interesting in hisGoogle Clips review. More specifically, Edgar praised the device for being “amazingly fun,” but criticized the price tag, lack of a microphone, video frame-rate (15fps), and disappointing battery life.
