Yeah, but the Nexus 7 was such a totally great product, ahead of its time. https://t.co/EjJz1PkJSt

Hey, it's true...Google's HARDWARE team will be solely focused on building laptops moving forward, but make no mistake, Android & Chrome OS teams are 100% committed for the long-run on working with our partners on tablets for all segments of the market (consumer, enterprise, edu)

There’s a QA joke about the Pixel Slate here but honestly it’s piling on sohttps://t.co/TsnkLptAVn pic.twitter.com/D5tKh4YuFT
Slack/AWS is the 2019 version. In 2009 it was using Google and OSX/MacBook Pros and iPhones. ? https://t.co/nrHSVBTlwm

Some articles have made this a bit unclear so wanted to clarify. And of course we will fully support Pixel Slate for the long-term as well.

1. Hardware is hard.
— Rene Ritchie (@reneritchie) June 21, 2019
2. Tablet market is still mostly an iPad market.
3. Silicon and software don’t have the market of phones nor the commoditization of PCs, which makes them expensive.
4. Sad, because consumers benefit from competition.https://t.co/725dTYXGgk

Google's officially done making its own tablets https://t.co/6wbiRQBXPs @computerworldより
This is unfortunate for @Android users hoping for this form factor. @Apple is killing it with #iPad, calling it “the most popular computer in the world” while @Google gives up. Has anyone made a decent Android tablet yet? https://t.co/VQ39yMzruL via @computerworld

Looking forward to some Google exec to reverse this decision and releasing a tablet in March 2020 https://t.co/DGlpKXKDq8

After Google announced it wasn’t making tablet hardware anymore, I got to thinking: was the hardware ever really the problem? I kind of think no, the problem is that Google was never really serious about tablets https://t.co/t75XOJJ3WT pic.twitter.com/X27Qa05zVd

The 2013 Nexus 7 was the best Android tablet I've ever had, in part because (as the author notes) it was the least-tablety tablet.

The Pixelbook is the second-best Android tablet I've owned, and it's neither Android nor a tablet.https://t.co/8bqJOfkVSk
