Some accessories of the yet-to-be-released Google Pixel Tablet have been spotted via Google code. This seems to confirm rumors about a keyboard and stylus for the tablet. Google started snipping the Pixel Tablet after it was showcased at I/O 2023.
The Google Tablet will come with a first-party keyboard and stylus to enhance its versatility. It will also be bundled with a charging dock that transforms the tablet into a smart speaker. It is expected that Google will unveil more accessories for the tablet after the release of Android 14 OS. There are hints however from Google code that the new accessories will include the keyboard and stylus. The names of the two accessories are Keyboard for Pixel Tablet and Stylus for Pixel Tablet.
The Pixel Tablet accessories have been previously spotted by a developer. The new discovery was from the Pixel Retail Demo app. This was accessed via the PixelSetupWizardOverlay APK. The two accessories are categorized under currently selling Google products.
Android 14 comes with improvements in keyboard and stylus integration. There are more keyboard shortcuts and refined Stylus functions in Android 14. The tablet will also support USB 2.0 styluses even though there are no Google-approved models to date. The speculation only relates to evidence from Google code and no pictures have been seen of either of the two accessories.
Google is getting set to unveil its lineup of products during its autumn hardware launch event. Some of the models already slated for launch are the Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, and Pixel Watch 2. It remains to be seen whether the Pixel Tablet will also make the cut.
