    Why does Google insist on fucking up every try to make Android on Tablets a thing? Nobody expects iPad level of quality after fumbling for decades, but at least sticking with it, adopting a stance similar to Apple regarding tablet layouts or proper window support would help.

      I guess they want to be able to sell it at 900$ like with Pixel but they see they can’t do it in 2 years so they give up.

        Its the usual story with Google, nowadays they just lack the basic patience to let good products become great. Imagine if the same mindset had ruled there when gmail, maps or even search were introduced…

          I can’t wait for them to announce the Pixel Slate in 2028 (discontinued 2029), the Pixel Tab in 2030 (discontinued 2032) and the Pixel 10 (tablet) and Pixel 10 Pro (tablet) in 2034 (discontinued same day).

          I’m still mad they killed Google stadia. They didn’t even release it worldwide and decided to kill it.

    Too bad, since it’s the only tablet that runs GOS. And there are no new hardware tablets for LineageOS either.

    Who still uses a tablet?

    Too big for pocket, too small to replace a laptop.

    The only people I see using them are little kids at school.
