Google appears to have killed off the Pixel Tablet after just three years, and the move has left users concerned for the fate of ‘one of the most underrated products'
The Google Pixel tablet is no more, Google appears to have pulled it from its online store.
Google has quietly discontinued its Pixel Tablet after just three years, leaving users bewildered and disappointed. The device, which launched in 2023, is no longer available for purchase on the Google Store or through third-party retailers such as Amazon. The absence of the Pixel Tablet from the market has also resulted in the unavailability of its accessories, such as the Speck SandyShell Case and Charging Speaker Dock.
Despite not being as popular as other tablets, the Pixel Tablet was highly regarded by users within the Google/Android ecosystem. Reddit users expressed their disappointment, with some stating that it was one of the most underrated products Google had released. While some believe the decision to discontinue the Pixel Tablet is surprising, many are not entirely shocked, considering Google's history of neglecting its tablet range.
The company first unveiled the Pixel Tablet in 2023, at a starting price of $399 / £399 / AU$649. However, rumors of a second and third tablet were quickly dismissed. Google's decision to retire its lineup of Nest Audio speakers in favor of its upgraded Google Home Speaker suggests that the tech giant might be preparing to enter a new era, potentially leaving a void in the tablet market. A response from Google has yet to be received.
