I can not look at the english page for it anymore, because of Google's automatic forwarding rules. Maybe they changed the marketing by now? I'm pretty sure it was marketed for all skin colors, not just darker skin. And the talk about talking diverse photographs was the first "marketing section" after the tech specs. Yeah they also announced they have a "tensor processor" now. I don't think that was/is an actual selling point.

The slogan didn't change since the 1st ad.[1]

The Real Tone page says people of color several times.[2] And even saying all skin colors wouldn't mean they have to be in the same photo.

Are you claiming Pixel 6 ads don't explain any Tensor processor benefits? Or sell anything but the processor and camera?

I didn't reger to the video ad, but to their web site. I'm saying their main selling point was (and is) that the camera does well with different skin tones.
