Google Pixel Slate is a “thin and light” Chrome OS-running tablet with an optional detachable keyboard that comes with a 293ppi display and dual front-firing speakers. The power button houses a fingerprint scanner. It comes with 8-megapixel front and rear cameras with portrait mode. The front camera comes with a wide-angle lens and is optimised to work in low light, according to Google. Chrome OS on Pixel Slate is optimised to work on the touchscreen, including running side-by-side apps.

The Pixel Slate Keyboard doesn’t need to be paired or charged, similar to the iPad Pro’s Smart Keyboard. It has a back light and doubles up as a cover for the Pixel Slate. The Pixel Slate price is $599 in the US with the keyboard priced at $199. A $99 stylus was also announced. All three available in the US later this year.
