I found this, I'm wanting to get a pixel tablet in about a week or so. Title just got me wondering a bit, though it's probably just a little bit sensationalized
Google is making the same mistakes with the watch, fold, and tablet that they originally made when they rebranded the Nexus to the Pixel. Thinking just making it expensive and the customers will just buy it because reasons.
They seem to have come off of that delusion with most of the phones.
They have not provided a reason to buy their expensive, but middle of the road hardware, when cheaper and competitive options already exist from Samsung and Apple in these segments.
Unless someone just dislikes Apple or Samsungs offering what would make the Google offering stand out?
