Knowing Google, they’ll just cancel it altogether.
It’s like I’m on Reddit again. So sick of hearing this tired line regurgitated over and over to free upvotes.

If only Google wasn’t also so repetitive.
Quite a few on this list I would have definitely kept using today.
Hangouts getting killed was the last straw for me. I immediately moved everything except for Gmail away from Google.
Google Duo really hurts. It was some of the best quality cross platform video calling service.
Hey, I already replied but here’s yet another thing killed by Google.
You didn’t even read the article, huh?
They are getting rid of an experimental feature only released in one county. Companies do this all the time, it’s only news “because Google kills everything” so it gets clicks.
I would REALLY like to buy one of these. But I just can’t justify buying anything with a 60hz display in 2024.
I’m legitimately asking. Why does that matter? What do you do with a tablet where it makes a tangible difference?
Scrolling any list.
Once you get used to higher refresh rates, lower ones look stuttery.
Sometimes when I go back to a lower refresh rate display, I even get some visual discomfort for a little while until I readjust.
For me going to 90 or 120Hz is well worth the small hit to battery life.
That 120hz life is just too good
I would personally say that if you want to do work on a tablet, the pixel tablet isn’t good for you. But I own one, and I personally like it. Personally switched from an iPad mini 6th generation. Wish there was more drawing apps and better support them with USI.
It’s not like one of Samsung’s higher end tablets, but it’s also not like one of their cheap budget ones either that barely run the software given to them. It’s pretty much like the pixel phone and falls into the category of “good enough/acceptable”. Yeah there’s definitely better hardware out there, but it’s the software that is what makes it a decent tablet. A higher end model with stuff like a better refresh rate would be nice, but it’s not a requirement for me personally.
It’s a bit gimmicky, but I do like the hub mode of the tablet that’s engaged through the dock. It’s nice that the tablet can do something at all times even when it’s just changing.
My only real complaints about the tablet are the poor keyboard and mouse support (though that’s more of a problem on app developers), the fact the dock doesn’t do much. And I’ve also noticed quite a few problems using other launchers with it (probably because the taskbar is very heavily tied to the pixel launcher).
I’d have considered it if it had an amoled display. Bought myself a used Galaxy S5e instead.
