Then again, that means nobody will be trying to use the 12-inch Pixel Slate to take photos at a concert or school play.
The camera takes average photos and doesn't seem to have any of the Pixel Magic we see in the Pixel series of phones, which I'll admit was a dissapointment.

On the back, you'll find an 8MP (1.12um pixel size) sensor with an ƒ/1.8 aperture that can also take video at 1080p and 30fps. It's also capable of 1080p video at 30fps. The front camera is "Duo Cam-optimized," and is 8MP with 1.4um pixels and an ƒ/1.9 aperture. There's a camera on both sides of the Pixel Slate. Hopefully, that's something that gets ironed out before this version of Chrome heads out to the rest of the world. On more than one occasion I was required to enter my password but wasn't prompted to do so. The sensor itself seems to be fine and can read prints with the slightest of touch, but Chrome itself can act a bit different. During setup, you provide one or more of your fingerprints and the Pixel Slate will unlock the same way your phone does. The power button is on the top left and it doubles as a Pixel Imprint fingerprint sensor. That's important as nobody wants a tablet this big to be top-heavy.Įverything is nicely rounded and the weight is well-balanced. The edges are well rounded, too, so it's comfortable to hold, and Google spent the time to ensure the center of gravity is in the actual center of the product. You'll find just enough bezel around the edges to hold the Pixel Slate firmly, and they're functional as you'll find a pair of forward firing speakers embedded that offer surprisingly nice sound. A 12-inch screen isn't very big when you're talking about a laptop display, but when you squeeze it into the tablet form factor it can be a little overwhelming.
The first thing you'll notice, and something that you'll always notice, is the size. This was never intended to be a Pixelbook replacement. After using it, I understand why the Pixel Slate Keyboard isn't included and is instead a $199 accessory.

The features you want in an Android tablet, like a gorgeous 12.3-inch patented Molecular Display, fingerprint sensor, a 7mm thick body, and a full day of battery life come along for the ride, but you're going to need to be OK with a tablet this big. Google isn't trying to sell your next Chromebook the Pixel Slate is first and foremost a tablet.
