Prime Day is over, but this sweet Google Pixel Tablet deal (with no strings) chugs along

Did you miss Amazon’s unprecedented Pixel tablet promotion from earlier this week due to… negligence or an inexplicable reluctance to become a Prime subscriber? Don’t worry, because Google’s first in-house Android lineup in ages is still significantly discounted in 128 and 256 GB storage configurations with a charging speaker dock included, and unlike the event Bonus Big Deal Days from the e-commerce giant, everyone can save big. right away.

Admittedly, this new deal isn’t as great as the aforementioned Prime-exclusive $90 discount. But it’s pretty close, shaving $80 off the $499 and $599 list prices of the 10.95-inch Google Pixel tablet with 128 and 256 GB of local digital storage, respectively.

By no means a serious alternative to Apple’s best iPads of 2023 in terms of processing power, this reasonably good-looking, decidedly feature-rich and uniquely versatile mid-range (upper) Android tablet promises to deliver stellar software support.

Of course, its biggest selling point and main distinguishing feature compared to all the best tablets one can buy this holiday season remains that bundled dock, which allows you to seamlessly transform the Pixel tablet into a sort of Nest Hub and thus compete with the popular Amazon Echo. View smart displays in addition to Apple iPads or Samsung Galaxy Tabs.

Once docked, the Pixel Tablet can fill your home with music played at pretty decent quality, take voice commands for a number of handy tasks, control various compatible smart home devices and accessories and perhaps most importantly, charge at speeds of 15 watts to ensure a full and continuous charge. preparation for portable use like a good old tablet.

This truly is a “best of both worlds” situation…or at least a “decent two-thing” type setup. Either way, if you need a device that can competently handle such double duty, now is the time to make your purchase and hopefully check off two top items with one stone. your holiday shopping list without breaking the bank.
