The Pixel Tablet is Google's latest attempt to rejuvenate the ignored segment of Android tablets. But this alternative offers more for the same price.
The market for Android tablets appears to be sinking, but the likes of the Pixel Tablet may have some role in salvaging it. The Pixel Tablet, launched last week — exactly a year after it was first unveiled — marks Google’s reentry into the tablet segment after almost a decade.
OnePlus Pad: refreshing display The OnePlus Pad rocks an 11.6-inch display with a 2800 x 2000 resolution. The display has a 144Hz refresh rate display, which means the contents on the display update 144 times every second, allowing the OnePlus Pad to render smooth animations for launching or transitioning between apps, scrolling webpages, and playing games.
Pixel Tablet: all about entertainment At last week’s Google I/O 2023 conference, Google talked about several updates coming to its services, mainly AI-backed improvements. The tech giant briefly touched upon upcoming devices, including the Pixel Tablet, and spoke about specific capabilities — such as entertainment, video calling, and editing images in Google Photos.
Outside the U.S., OnePlus also sells a variant of the OnePlus Pad with 12GB of RAM. While that may sound preposterous for an Android tablet, it gives the OnePlus Pad immense power for extensive tasks such as gaming. In contrast, the Pixel Tablet supports the Universal Stylus Initiative standard for generic active styluses. While the move favors interoperability, it also leaves the task of researching and finding the most appropriate stylus for the tablet up to you, should you wish to illustrate on the Pixel Tablet.
OnePlus also chooses an unconventional 7:5 aspect ratio for the display, compared to the Pixel Tablet’s 16:10 display. The OnePlus Pad’s display allows for more vertical space when used in landscape mode, making it more appropriate for reading in a tabletop- or laptop-like orientation. Battery and charging Owing to their respective flagship chipsets, the Pixel Tablet and the OnePlus Pad can be expected to offer similar performance. But the OnePlus Pad comes with a slight advantage in the form of a bigger 9,510mAh battery. Meanwhile, Google uses different units and claims a 27 watt-hour battery for the Pixel Tablet. Watt-hour and mAh are not directly convertible power units, but Android Authority confirms the Pixel Tablet’s battery to be rated at 7,020mAh.
