When docked, the tablet can be used to control your connected compatible thermostats, lights, locks, and view cameras from the lock screen or Quick Settings menu.

Thanks to Google’s Tensor G2 chip, first seen in Pixel’s 7 series flagships, which features Google AI, the tablet achieves fast and smooth streaming, high-quality video calls, efficient multitasking, and more. The tablet also has the certified Titan M2 security chip, making it one of the most secure tablets on the market. Design-wise, the Pixel Tablet has a unique nano-ceramic coating that is inspired by the feel of porcelain, giving it a soft matte look and textured feel. The tablet is also environmentally friendly, featuring over 30 percent recycled materials, and the aluminum in the enclosure is 100 percent recycled content.

Further, the tablet comes with the Google TV app, making it easy to browse and watch your favourite shows and movies. Additionally, it’s the first tablet with Chromecast built-in, allowing you to cast music and videos from your Pixel phone like you would on a Chromecast-enabled TV.

The tablet has a built ion 27-watt-hour battery that provides up to 12 hours of video streaming per charge. Both the front and the rear sport an eight-megapixel, f/2.0 camera, with fixed focus, and an 84-degree field of view, alongside features like Magic Eraser, Photo Unblur, Night Sight and more.

Finally, the Pixel Tablet, phones, earbuds, and watches work together to help you throughout your day. You can also easily connect your Pixel devices with each other and switch between them, and with Nearby Share, you can quickly and securely share photos, videos, contacts, links, and more between your Pixel Tablet and other nearby phones and laptops.

The Pixel Tablet will be available to purchase on June 19th in Canada for $699 in Hazel and Porcelain colourways. Learn more about the tablet here.
