For anyone who are underwhelmed with the entry-level model, Google may have the Pixel Tablet Pro.
The business made the odd choice to introduce a product that wouldn’t ship until 2023 during the Google I/O 2022 event back in May. The Google Pixel Tablet was officially unveiled in a “blink and you’ll miss it” fashion, with only a marketing image and no information on specifications.
Google hasn’t said anything more about the Pixel Tablet since then, but developer sleuthing has revealed that it will be a low- to mid-range device with the same processor as the Pixel 6 and less RAM than the Pixel 6a, as well as the average front-facing IMX355 sensor used on both sides of the tablet. Anyone searching for an is rather let down by that.
However, this could only be telling half the story, according to 9to5. the most recent code exploration by Google. The website looked through Google’s most recent Android 13 beta release and discovered mentions of a “tangorpro” gadget. The Pixel Tablet’s codename is Tangor, which is occasionally abbreviated to “t6” in the code. As a result, references to “t6pro” from time to time are also significant.
The prospect of two levels for Google’s next tablet shouldn’t be all that shocking given that the company has already released Pro versions of the Pixel 6 and Pixel Buds, but the specific distinctions are still mostly unclear.
So far, 9to5Google has only been able to identify one hardware difference: a new back camera sensor. Unfortunately, the website is unable to specify what is being utilised in its place; it can only confirm that the IMX355 will not be.
Everything else is just conjecture. It may be merely ornamental, with the casing made of more expensive materials, or maybe the Pro version would employ a faster Tensor chip? Maybe it will have a better quality screen and more RAM? If this advanced version ever makes it into consumers’ hands, we’ll just have to wait for confirmation from Google, though it could be any combination of these things.
