Google Pixel C Tablet Release Date & Specs: Device Now Available, Comes With 10.2-Inch Display, 3 GB of RAM
A hybrid laptop and tablet device has been released and is expected to go up against the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and Apple iPad Pro. As Android Headlines had earlier reported, since the Google Pixel C had already gone through benchmarking by GFXBench and Geekbench, two popular tests, it was only a matter of time before the company made it available for purchase.
People can now buy the Google Pixel C in the Google Store. It is said to be the first tablet that the company had designed and produced on its own. Tech Radar had earlier reported that the Dutch site Tweakers had talked about a Dec. 8 release and as it turns out, they were correct.
Some of the specs and features of the device have already been revealed through the official announcement. The benchmark results also provided more information on what people could expect with the Pixel C. Now that the device has finally been launched, its specs are now available for consumers to think about.
