On Windows 10, still fails to respect both Hangout's own sound settings for speaker/mic as well as the Windows configured default communication device. So while I like this interface better, any number of other services I use (e.g. Zoom, Skype) just work better with my devices. Those other services can switch to using my bluetooth headset on calls and similar.<p>Google really is a technology company, not a products company. They have some really very clever ideas and implement them with great mediocrity more often than they should. And even when they get something solid, you can never really tell for how long the product will last or if they'll start screwing with it.<p>For me, the only things that really come to mind as solid are maps and search. Google Now, great... if you don't have a Google Apps account. Inbox, great... if you don't need a bit slightly sophisticated formatting or image support. etc.
