Google Enhances Pixel Tablet Experience with Upcoming Stylus and Keyboard Launch
Get ready for a more versatile Pixel Tablet experience as Google introduces new stylus and keyboard accessories on May 10th. As the Charging Speaker Dock is phased out, these eagerly awaited additions, priced at €100 each, promise to enhance your tablet functionality in style. Stay tuned for updates on possible price adjustments and more flexible options for your Pixel Tablet.
Last June, Google launched its Pixel Tablet with an innovative feature: a Charging Speaker Dock included in the package. However, according to GSM Arena, the tech giant is set to remove this bundle from its offerings starting May 10.
The decision to phase out the Charging Speaker Dock reflects Google’s recognition of consumer preferences. Initially, the idea of combining a tablet with a smart speaker functionality when docked was seen as cutting-edge, but it seems it didn’t quite hit the mark with consumers.
Google is not just stopping with the removal of the dock; it is also planning to expand the Pixel Tablet’s capabilities by introducing two new accessories: a stylus and a keyboard. These have been much-anticipated by users and will be available for purchase separately from the same date the dock is discontinued. Each accessory will be priced at €100 in the Eurozone, meaning customers looking to enhance their tablet with both will need to spend an additional €200.
The new accessories will come in Hazel and Porcelain, designed to match the Pixel Tablet’s color options. With the dock bundle being phased out, there’s also speculation about a possible price adjustment for the Pixel Tablet itself.
While it’s still unclear whether Google will reduce the tablet’s price permanently to offset the removal of the dock, consumers are keen for further updates. This move indicates a strategic pivot by Google to better meet consumer needs, offering more flexibility and choice in how they enhance their tablet experience.
