The Lenovo has worse performance but a better screen dimension for watching videos and already has a dock and awesome speakers with it, unlike this pixel tablet which requires a separate dock and speakers to have the same effect.
The Lenovo has shittier performance.
Moment of silence for those who bought that Lenovo yesterday…
$60 restocking fee (20%! Thieves) Meaning you will be paying an extra $70 for this pixel tablet if you cancel your Lenovo.
Delivery only? Can't see any store with stock online.
Agree. It's hardly $349 when you can't avoid the shipping fee since it's OOS in all stores.
Awaiting JB to modify the shipping or availability to fix this..
This or that?
This
No, That is better (not that)
Hmm you could be right 🤔
For what purpose? They advertise to quickly fix security vulnerabilities but you're relying on zero pay "you tell me what's wrong" bros rather than literally the Android development team.
Custom ROMs are very 2012
Pretty uneducated opinion imo.

I also don't think they're just 'zero pay bros' considering they've received substantial grants from the likes of Proton etc. You don't have to like it/use it, but I think dismissing it to something akin to a 2012-era custom ROM is silly.
Not for profit and asking for donations. They could drop the project any day.
interested in using this as a digital photo frame with Google Photos when the tablet is not in use. but $599!
$536 if you buy separately
does the dock also make this like a google home device?
yes
You can buy this from officeworks for the same price and the dock is $187 so total with dock and tablet is $536.
Google black friday sale is coming soon. Hodl
Will wait for BF to get a deal with the dock to replace my good home hub. Doesn't make sense to just get the tablet.
Is this supposed to be kinda like the new google home product that sits around like the google photo album?
I would prefer the dock, so if I buy just the tablet version and not open it, see what happens with BF, if the tablet+dock is a lot better value, then should be able to just return the tablet only right? And if there's no deal with a dock then just open it and hope there's dock only deal in the future?
Any opinion on how this works with a stylus? Any better or worse then an iPad mini (last gen)?
Can't get anything for this price other than the Lenovo. I have the Lenovo for the kids, and it's amazing.
So you'd pick the Lenovo over this…?
Lenovo's cancellation conditions… 20% restocking fee, bastards!
This stung me as well, wont ever buy from them again. I returned it as it was laggy, no updates and they did not care, support offered zero ETA on an update so back it went then they stung me with a restocking fee they caused by releasing a poorly supported device.
Still not cheap enough for the model with dock
This or Galaxy tab a9+?
I bought this instead of a laptop for basic productivity tasks at home and watching netflix a few months ago. Im a huge google fan and wanted to love it, but I dont.
I get bugs, glitches and apps closing all the time. At the moment, the system software doesnt even finish installing and chrome closes everytime i open it. Raised a ticket 3 days ago and havent heard back.
Theres also minor things i dont love. Like how one side dims when split screening. How messages/emails dont register that youve viewed them on your pixel phone.
I dislike apple but have to admit my partner's ipad is way less buggy and much more practical.
Thanks, saved me the headache, I was looking to see if Googles software for tablets had improved since my last check, clearly they don't care about this sector. Im still in shock developers are still building phone apps stretched as tablet apps or they just use the phone size area of the screen and its on popular apps as well, fragmentation in Android is its biggest issue
Its the dock really worth another $250?
This or the Lenovo Tab Plus
