  • The Google Pixel Slate is Google’s answer to the iPad Pro and Microsoft Surface devices. The Slate takes some of it’s cues from the Pixel Book (Chromebook) but packs it into a removable tablet style form factor. So is the Google Pixel Slate any good? Can it compete with the iPad Pro and Microsoft Surface?

      MargeSimpsonWeed especially after iPadOS was released. The only main advantage the Pixel Slate had over the iPad was a desktop class browser, but iPadOS now gave that feature to the iPad now which leaves no reason to choose the iPad over the Pixel Slate. No wonder why Google gave up on the Pixel Slate.

    I'm an apple hater for the most part but I absolutely love my iPad Pro. Why? The pencil! It's amazing for taking notes or drawing. I have stacks upon stacks of notebooks laying around from previous courses but the last two semesters I haven't touched a notebook for any classes. The iPad pencil is that good and has replaced paper and pen for me. On your iPad pro review you did a segment where you focused on the pencil but not so on this Pixel Slate. If the pencil on this is as good as the iPad pro I will sale my iPad and pick this up asap. So my question is why would you not focus on the pencil here at all? Is it that bad? Either way I hope you revisit this with an in depth comparison of the pencil use on both the iPad Pro and Pixel Slate. Please up-vote this so we can get a pencil comparison

    Thanks Lou, but I really want another in-depth analysis and comparison between the two. Both are potential future laptop replacements. But the main factor is the software. I wanna know where iOS or Chrome OS holds back their respective devices from reaching full potential. iOS apps are perfectly suited for the iPad. But some Android apps still have ways to go on Chrome OS. This hybrid technology is really exciting. We have the USB C issue, for external device support. Pixel slate does it better than the iPad. I really really really wanna see a full comparison between the two with future improvability, and scope for further development of both the hardware (especially on the Pixel) and software issues on both, and the fields where they both excel, for content creators, laptop replacement users or the general light workload public. Thanks. Always love your videos.

The reality is that Surface is dominating the market and Lou just can't promote that, he is forced to try pushing two shitty products.

    Watching this on my HP X2 Chromebook that I got to replace an iPad Pro 12.9 and Surface Pro. I loved the iPad as a Tablet but it had too many limitations for anything other than consuming content. The Surface Pro was good as a productivity tool but rubbish as a Tablet - Windows 10 just isn't right for touch yet.
    The X2 Chromebook for me is the perfect replacement - it's good as a Tablet and good as a Productivity Tool - not the pinnacle for either but does both well enough in one device rather than having to use 2.
    That's what I think Lou is saying here - we're finally getting devices that can do both. Plenty of people viewing this will say 'it's not as good as the iPad Pro as a Tablet' or 'it's not as good as a Surface Pro/Book for productivity'. That's still true but to have decent versions of both those devices you're dropping over 2,000 USD. I've spent 800 USD on my X2 with 8GB RAM and it performs really well.
    If you're happy to keep having multiple devices and spending the money that's fine but my X2 Chromebook does all I need in one.
    Interesting times.

      I mean I’m in university for biology currently(going to switch to political science) and so far my pro has done literally everything a laptop can do besides excel. There are some real limitations on iPads excel app that drive me crazy. You can’t make trend lines from your graphs which is absurd. But other than that the thing is amazing. In political science I will probably literally never need to use a laptop unless I have to make trend lines for populations or some shit on the iPad eventually. The iPad is more than enough to be productive for most people. But it does have its limitations, and is better as a companion device to your main device which for most people isn’t a problem due to most households having a capable desktop in their homes. Hopefully IOS 13 brings well needed upgrades to the iPad Pro, like mouse support for Christ sake. I love my iPad Pro though.

    I don’t see the point of buying a tablet for work and a laptop replacement. I use tablets for watching movies playing games and all sorts of entertainment and I also do some school work on my ipad cause it is so portable. But why would you buy a tablet to do real work with it. Current laptops are so much better at that. Edit: Btw I really like the new iPad Pro and I have already ordered one. It really is the best tablet you can get and you can do some really nice video and photo editing with it cause it has so much power and thinn design, but it is not meant to replace your macbook or any laptop. If you want to do some real work and lot of writing you buy a macbook for that. Why would Apple sell macbooks if the iPad is meant to replace them.

But if you buy it to do some real work, it’s not gonna be that great. It has all the power that you need and you can nicely do some video editing but the typing experience is bad it has no trackpad or mouse support and it dosen’t work with full desktop websites. I think that the iPad Pro is for those who want the best tablet in the world and also want to be able to do some video and photo editing on the go. You can take the iPad anywhere cause it has LTE and it is really portable, but for real paper and typing work that you do with macbooks it is better to stay with laptops.

    Reading the specs, I just discovered that none of the config options include LTE connectivity, although of course we can use most phones as hotspots, and apparently if you have a Pixel phone it will connect automatically. There are some buyers who will like the built-in 4G for iPad Pro and this is worth mentioning as a key difference. I'm loving the Pixel 3, but this is a complicated sell.

    What's the music in the background? It groves like mad.
    So. the iPad is a tablet with a keyboard.
    The slate is a laptop with a detacheable screen.
    That said, I do a lot of raw photo editing, video editing, audio editing on my PC.
    I don't think either of those devices is quite as good at that as a full on Windows computer.
    Honestly though, I think the iPad may have the apps to do this, rather than the slate...
    I'll stick to PC's and laptops for now.

    I love it. I purchased the i7 version and it is now my only device at home. The keyboard - it is just briliant. Slipping - yes - but it does not bother me (I can understand for some it is bad, not for me). I love the idea and direction. I think Google will come back to this direction. Wish luck..

    I have a Pixelbook and I actually really love it. The Slate seems to be same thing but with fancier hardware and styling. If someone likes their Pixelbook, should they upgrade to a Slate, or are they too similar?
