If you’ve been hunting for an Android tablet with smart display features, now it’s the best time to finally plunge in. Google’s Pixel Tablet with a charging speaker dock has fallen to a new best price on Amazon. The ongoing sale has the tablet bundle listed for $390, which is $109 lower (22 percent) than the usual price of $499.
This price is slightly lower than the record low we saw last month. But keep in mind that the only variant available with this offer is the porcelain with a base memory configuration, which has a hue closer to cream.
Why the Google Pixel Tablet is worth it
The Google Pixel Tablet (review) is one of our favorite Android tablets. It’s a phenomenal machine for those who want a reliable tablet and a smart home display in one. Even better, it’s a more recommendable purchase at the current price.
While it’s the first Google tablet in its new Pixel line, the company didn’t skimp on its specs. The Pixel Tablet features an 11-inch LCD panel which boasts 500 nits brightness and 2560 x 1600 pixels resolution. Although it doesn’t come with its own Pixel pen or stylus, it is compatible with third-party USI 2.0 writing stylus pens.
Under the hood, the Pixel Tablet is powered by a custom Tensor G2 chipset that performs admirably in most tasks and even when gaming. It has a battery capacity measured at 7,020 mAh, while the actual endurance of the tablet can last an entire day with juice to spare for the second day.
You can charge it via wired or with the charging speaker dock. The latter automates the charging time while also preventing overcharging the device once it reaches a specified battery charge level. Pairing the tablet with the dock utilizes the dock’s speaker, which outputs more powerful sound.
If attached to the dock, the Pixel Tablet switches to smart home display mode. This presents an interface that prioritizes Google Home and media controls for easy navigation. However, you can customize how the UI goes through the widgets available.
