Last year, Google revealed how its first tablet would look like and now it has finally officially launched it. Pixel Tablet was launched during the Google I/O conference alongside the Pixel 7a and the long-awaited Pixel Fold.
The slate features the in-house Tensor G2, the same processor that powers the Pixel 7 series and the foldable. It gets a large LCD display with support for a 2560 x 1600 resolution. There’s also a wireless dock that functions as both a charging station and speaker.
The Google Pixel Tablet comes with a 10.95-inch LCD panel that boasts a 2560 x 1600px resolution and a 16:10 aspect ratio. The panel offers a peak brightness of 500 nits, up to 12 hours of video streaming, and USI 2.0 stylus support.
Powering the tablet is Google’s own Tensor G2 processor, which comes paired with a Titan M2 security coprocessor. The device is offered with 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM and either 128GB or 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. For photography, the tablet gets an 8MP camera on both the front and back, with a 1.12 μm pixel width, f/2.0 aperture, fixed focus, and an 84-degree field of view.
Other notable features include WiFi 6 support, Bluetooth 5.2, a USB Type-C port, a quad-speaker setup, and three microphones.
There are pogo pins on the rear that will allow for dock functionality. The wireless dock functions as both a charging station and a speaker. It will let you use the device as a smart display, similar to the Amazon Echo Show.
The tablet gets a 27-Wh battery battery with support for 18W charging.
