Looking for a budget-friendly mid-range Android tablet for casual use, work, or school? Google’s Pixel Tablet is on sale and now available on Amazon at one of its best prices yet, making it a smart buy.
Pixel device deals continue to roll in on Amazon, including Google’s only tablet. The Pixel Tablet has dropped to $279, marking its second-best price ever. That means you’re saving $120 off the usual $399.
This deal applies to the tablet-only version with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. If you want to convert it into a smart display or enjoy better audio, you’ll need to buy the Charging Speaker Dock separately. Only one color is available, Porcelain.
Who Should Consider the Google Pixel Tablet
The Pixel Tablet (review) launched as a mid-range option. While it’s starting to show its age, it remains a solid pick for anyone looking for a balanced device that won’t break the bank. With this discount, it’s a more compelling buy than ever.
We praised the Pixel Tablet in our review, especially for its sleek and compact design. It features a thin, lightweight metal chassis with soft tapered edges and rounded corners that make it comfortable to hold. It’s even manageable with one hand for tasks like streaming or sketching.
Its 10.95-inch IPS LCD display isn’t flagship-grade like the OLED or 120 Hz panels found on pricier Galaxy tablets, but it’s sharp and vibrant enough for media consumption. The more square-like aspect ratio also makes multitasking with split windows more efficient. It supports active styluses via USI 2.0.

Even without the dock, the stereo speakers are loud and deliver crisp audio with decent bass. Surprisingly, the 8 MP front and rear cameras perform better than expected, producing color-rich, sharp images with accurate tones.
Powered by the Tensor G2 chip, the tablet isn’t the fastest in its class, but it handles everyday tasks like app switching and casual gaming smoothly. The 7,020 mAh battery is average in size, but real-world usage stretches comfortably across a full day. For added charging flexibility, the dock is a smart companion.
The Pixel Tablet ships with Android 16 and is expected to receive its final major update with Android 17. Google has committed to security updates through 2028.
