The Pixel Tablet is one of the better options if you’re on the hunt for a new tablet but would rather not go the iPad route. It’s a huge improvement over Google’s previous attempts at an Android tablet, and it even comes with a speaker dock in the box that turns it into a fancy smart display when charging. Sure, there are cheaper alternatives on the market but there are often ways to get a Pixel Tablet for less than the original sticker price, and we’ve found them all. We’ll be updating this list regularly to make sure you’re always getting the best deal as well.
Google returned to tablets after several iterations of Pixel phones and a lineup of smart home devices, and it’s clear that what it’s learned from those devices is being used in the Pixel Tablet (as well as the new hybrid Pixel Fold). The Pixel Tablet is powered by Google’s in-house Tensor G2 chip, and the Fold’s software experience mirrors that of the Pixel phone rather than leaning into a Chromebook-like experience like the Pixel Slate’s. The included magnetic speaker dock also transforms the Pixel Tablet into a smart display a la the Nest Hub.
The Pixel Fold features an 11-inch screen, 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. There’s an 8-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls and also one on the back for snapping photos.
