It takes more than just being better when you are late to market.
> Self driving cars are fast approaching. Will anyone beat Google at this?
Uber? They are the fresh blood and moving fast in everything.
> Maps will have offline navigation soon. Why use Bing or Apple maps?
I use Nokia Here Maps. They have offline navigation today. On my device. Which is not Android.
> Android is everywhere.
Not on iPhones. Not on content-producing devices.
> Google Now and their new Google Now features look great.
2015s version of Clippy. Predictive analysis is not ready. Beware of the hype curve.
> Is there any space that they are not in / won't enter?
Their business is still revolving around ads. They are lagging in enterprise. They cannot beat Amazon at shopping. They cannot beat Apple/Microsoft at premium device design quality. They are not perfect.
PS: It's great that Google exists, but don't put it on pedestal.
