**Google Pixel Tablet Review** The Google Pixel Tablet, now priced at $399 instead of $499, has been on sale at Best Buy. This 11-inch device runs on Android 13 and Google's Tensor G2 chip. Users have found the Pixel Tablet performs well for multitasking. It features small bezels and comes with a charging dock that acts as a speaker. However, some users report that the Android software can be buggy, although it is generally more stable than other Android devices. The Pixel Tablet aims to be a simple, effective device, but it is not designed to compete with high-end tablets like the iPad Pro. It excels in basic tasks like checking scores or scrolling through social media while serving as a smart home display. One of the standout features is its integration with Google Assistant, which many users find works better than Siri or Alexa. The device is portable, making it convenient for users who want a flexible display for their smart home. Nonetheless, the Pixel Tablet faces challenges, particularly with smart home controls. Users have reported connectivity issues with some smart devices. The far-field microphone also does not perform as well as Amazon Echo devices, making it less effective in larger spaces. In summary, while the Pixel Tablet offers portability and a decent smart home experience, it may not fully replace dedicated smart displays like the Echo Hub or Google Nest Hub Max. Users looking for a versatile device may find the Pixel Tablet appealing, especially at its discounted price.
