Who here is buying the Pixel Tablet? (lemmy.world)

I’ve been thinking about getting the tablet once it releases, but I’m curious about what others are thinking and what their use cases are going to be. So, who’s buying it? And if so, why?

I was considering it ngl, but the 60hz screen is a deal-breaker for me.

Excuse me? It’s only 60hz? Who would release a flagship product with a 60hz screen in 2023. Sad.

[–] rjsr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

uh, it's not a "flagship", is it? It's like, a budget combo tablet + smart hub.

[–] Sjvo@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

That's a completely fair deal-breaker. I think I'm going to check it out once it releases and see if it feels smooth for a 60hz screen. Although, hopefully the future iterations bump up that refresh rate to 90hz or 120hz.

They really screwed up on the hub part. If the hub could have audio cast to it while undocked I would've bought it in a heart beat but having to have the tablet docked to it to make it work kills the whole thing.

I am thinking about it, but it is unlikely. I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 lite that works 'fine'. I really can't justify the expense of the Pixel tablet at this time. I like the docking stand, it should have happened a long time ago. Lenovo had something like this 5 years ago, but the tablet was really under-powered. I'm going to wait and see what real world reviews say to see if it is powerful enough. The other thing I would want from it is a keyboard case so that I can take it on family vacations instead of my laptop.
