TheGoogle Pixel Tabletis already shaping up to be one of thebest tabletsof 2023, and a newGoogleblogpostshows its impressive-looking interface in action.
The post itself is an announcement of new keyboard shortcuts for Google Keep, but as9to5googlespotted it also shows the new interface in action in what appears to be a pair of screen recordings. The image resolutions are in the right aspect ratio for the tablet, which is expected to have a resolution of 2,560 x 1,600, and they definitely fit with the very many images Google has already revealed of its tablet UI.
What do these leaked Pixel Tablet images tell us?
The most obvious takeaway here is that the tablet interface makes use of the extra screen size, so icons are more widely spaced than they are on thebest Android phonesand the status bars are taller. There’s also a persistent user switcher that should make it fast and simple to move between different accounts, something that’ll be useful for shared tablets at home.
The recordings also demonstrate a Split View that appears to work much like aniPaddoes: there’s an equal split to begin with but you can grab the border between the two and resize them with a drag.
The more I see of the Pixel Tablet, the more impressed I am: after many years of apparently seeingAndroidtablets as an afterthought, Google has clearly pulled a U-turn and invested serious amounts of time and talent in the Pixel tablet. I can’t wait to see how it compares to next year’sbest iPads.
