Google seems to have quietly pulled the Pixel Tablet, its Android tablet, from sale today. The Google Store product page is gone, and the Tablets category has vanished from the Google Store in the US, UK, and Canada.
Google hasn’t formally said the Pixel Tablet is discontinued. Still, with the recent out-of-stock notices, redirected listings, and earlier reports that Google had dropped a follow-up and that the company’s hardware team would stop making its own tablets, this is the clearest sign yet that the device’s run is over.
Google announced the Pixel Tablet at I/O 2023 and launched it in June 2023. It was a hybrid Android tablet and docked smart display, sold with a charging speaker dock for $899 and pitched as something you’d use on the couch, in the kitchen, or by your bedside.
If you already use the Pixel Tablet regularly, it’s still probably worth keeping. Google promised software and security updates through June 2028, even if Google’s patchy history with tablets, the competition from the iPad and Galaxy Tab, and the lingering problem of Android apps that still aren’t really built for tablets make this retreat hard to miss.
You can no longer buy the Pixel Tablet directly from Google. Amazon no longer lists it, and Best Buy says the Pixel Tablet is no longer available new. Google still has accessories up, including the case and charging speaker dock, though most of those are out of stock too.
What’s left is the Wasserstein Pixel Tablet Speaker Stand. That’s usually the kind of thing you see when a product is at the very end of its life.
