    Google Pixel Tablet $100 Cheaper – Excludes Charging Speaker Dock

    Google has recently reduced the price of its first-ever tablet, the Pixel Tablet, by approximately 100 US Dollars. This price drop is attributed to the removal of the Charging Speaker Dock that originally came with the device.

    It was previously reported that the Pixel Tablet would be sold without the base accessory, and this has now been confirmed. The tablet is now available for purchase without the Charging Speaker Dock. The device comes in Hazel and Porcelain color options, along with 128GB and 256GB storage variants. Initially priced at 499 US Dollars, the new price without the wireless dock now starts at 399 US Dollars.

    The 256GB model is now priced at 499 US Dollars, and this offer is accessible in various countries including the US, UK, Canada, Denmark, France, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Japan, Italy, Germany, and Australia. This price adjustment follows the introduction of Google's new mid-range smartphone model, the Pixel 8a.

    The Google Pixel Tablet features a 10.95-inch WQXGA display and is powered by the Tensor G2 processor paired with 8GB of RAM. It boasts 8-megapixel cameras on both the front and rear, a Titan M2 security chip, and a quad speaker setup.

  • Google Pixel 8a Price Leaked, Exceeds Pixel 7a Cost

    Google Pixel 8a Price Leaked, Exceeds Pixel 7a Cost

    Pixel 8a details are circulating widely across various platforms! Render images have been making rounds, and Google inadvertently unveiled the phone’s design in an official Google Fi advertisement. While most aspects of the phone are pretty much known to us, the pricing remained a mystery until now!

    Pixel 8a Pricing Unveiled

    Tipster Paras (via PassionateGeekz) recently spotted the smartphone at a Canadian retailer, finally disclosing its cost. The 128GB model of the Pixel 8a is set to be priced at CA$ 708.99, with the higher-tier 256GB version tagged at CA$ 792.99.

    Price Comparison with Pixel 7a

    To put things into perspective, the Pixel 7a debuted at CA$ 599 in Canada for the base 128GB model. Hence, the Pixel 8a emerges as approximately 10% pricier than its predecessor. However, the retailer’s listing doesn’t reveal any additional details about the smartphone.

    Pixel 8a Specifications (Rumored)

    The Pixel 8a’s design has been disclosed through numerous leaks and renders, showcasing a striking resemblance to the Pixel 8, complete with a familiar visor camera bump and rounded edges. It is expected to be available in multiple colors like Obsidian, Porcelain, Bay, and Mint.

    One of the significant upgrades for the Pixel 8a is its display, which will feature a 120Hz refresh rate, a first for a Pixel A-series phone. The screen will be a 6.1-inch OLED panel boasting a peak brightness of 1400 nits.

    Similar to the high-end Pixel 8, the Pixel 8a will run on the Google Tensor G3 processor, albeit in an underclocked version. It will also pack 8GB of RAM and the Titan M security chip, operating on Android 14 upon boot.

    The camera setup is anticipated to utilize the same sensors as the Pixel 7a, with a 64MP primary sensor, a 13MP ultrawide sensor, and a 13MP selfie camera. Moreover, it may incorporate some of the new camera features seen in the Pixel 8, such as Best Take and Magic Eraser.

    Addressing a historical weak point, the Pixel 8a is rumored to sport a larger 4,500mAh battery with faster 27W wired charging, an upgrade from the Pixel 7a’s 18W. Wireless charging at 7.5W is also expected. Additionally, there are speculations about an enhanced battery stats feature that will provide insights into manufacturing date, charging cycles, and battery health.

  • Pixel 9 Pro Design Revealed in Real-Life Photos

    Pixel 9 Pro Design Revealed in Real-Life Photos

    Google is preparing for the launch of the Pixel 9 series later this year, which is rumored to include three models: the Pixel 9, a more robust but smaller Pixel 9 Pro, and the larger flagship, the Pixel 9 Pro XL.

    We have already seen renders of all three devices, and now, actual images of the Pixel 9 Pro have surfaced online. These images, shared by a Russian site called Rozetked, purportedly reveal the design of the Pixel 9 Pro along with potential specifications.

    Pixel 9 Pro Design and Specs

    Upon initial inspection, the phone in the images shows signs of wear, with visible cracks on the back, yet they offer significant insights into the device.

    Compared to the iPhone 14 Pro Max with a 6.7-inch display, the Pixel in question appears smaller, hinting at a 6.1-inch screen size. Notably, the triple camera setup on the back strongly indicates that it might be the Pixel 9 Pro.

    Notable Features and Upgrades

    The regular Pixel 9 is expected to maintain a dual-camera setup similar to its predecessor, while the rumored Pixel 9 XL could sport a triple camera setup coupled with a 6.7-inch screen. The leaked image aligns well with the anticipated features of the Pixel 9 Pro.

    One of the images showcases the phone in fast boot mode, revealing its codename as "caiman" and some essential specifications. These details correspond with previous reports linking this codename to the Pixel 9 Pro.

    Enhanced Performance

    A noteworthy highlight from the leaked information is a significant RAM upgrade for the Pixel 9 Pro. The device is reported to house 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, a notable increase from the maximum 12GB in the Pixel 8 Pro. However, storage capacity is expected to remain at 128GB.

    Additional photographs provide a comprehensive 360-degree view of the device, showcasing a design featuring flat sides meeting the front and back with a gentle curve. A cutout at the top, likely for the mmWave antenna, resembles that of the Pixel 8 Pro.

    It is crucial to bear in mind that these details are leaks and, although they correspond with earlier renders, exercising caution is advisable.
