The Google Pixel Tablet was just released! 12 hours after I received it in the mail, the initial build of GrapheneOS was ready for it. In this video, I unbox the tablet, talk about some of my initial impressions, and cover some reasons why I purchased it.

Very impressive by the Graphene OS team to pump out this so quickly.

@trollerjakthetrollinggod-e7761 11 месяцев назад

They have said that Pixel firmware is fairly similar to each other, so it's possible that it would be fairly easy to modify code from device to device. Even still, most other OSes are slow to pump out in comparison and don't compete with their update speeds.

@IslamicAudiobooksCentral Год назад

Google should thank GrapheneOS and CalyxOS projects as they're driving sales. We don't even have Pixels sold in our country by Google but people still import them just to use them with these 2 OSes!

@frank.p_ Год назад

i was hoping (dare i say assumed) graphene os would release an os version for the pixel tablet. unbelievably excited this came to fruition! i have no choice, but to buy one now. also, i was hopeful that *if* graphene os had a release then you would do a review. thank you!

@sideofburritos Год назад

Sounds like all your wishes came true, haha. I figured they would release a version for the tablet since everything was looking good from a hardware perspective, but you never know until the device is actually released. I was super excited when I saw the initial build was ready.

Just ordered one thanks to this video, I actually didn't know you can run graphene on the tablet! Very cool! I hope newpipe still works .

@sideofburritos Год назад

Nice! So far, all the apps I've tested have worked well. I've been using libretube on it without issues, so I'm guessing newpie should work just as well.

@tredfxman 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the show! I like the idea of the dock. But the size is alittle small compared to my Lenovo P12 Pro on a 12.6 inch screen used as a replacement for a Laptop. I like the soft material on the back on the Pixel though. Graphene OS or similar seem to be mandatory after warranty goes here to.

@Zatsando Год назад

I 'm looking forward for this! This is the closest thing to a GOS computer we can get. A great idea for a video would be, ways to use it a day to day laptop replacement.

@sideofburritos Год назад

💯% it's a giant step closer to having that.

@drishalballaney6590 Год назад

I would also be interested to see if someone ports mobian or archlinuxarm or some other cool arm linux tablet, would be cool I wonder if this tablet supports display out to a monitor

@sideofburritos Год назад

I don't think it natively supported it, but I was able to make it work with a displaylink dock and the app. The leaks of the Pixel 8 show that it should have a native DisplayPort which would be great if that happens. I'm guessing that would be incorporated on the 2nd gen table.

@drishalballaney6590 Год назад

@@sideofburritos yess I also heard about the leaks of pixel 8 supporting display out this time.

Welcome back sir! Please give us an update of you using the tablet as your daily machine. Would love to see if this could replace my Linux laptop

@sideofburritos Год назад

Will do! Should have an update in a few weeks on it.

@WickedMuis Год назад

For "laptop use" I have already gotten myself a Steam Deck, to double as one (kitted out with foldable keyboard, dock, etc.). But if wouldn't have gotten a Framework laptop instead, this looks like a pretty good alternative for on-the-go considering the price.

@sideofburritos Год назад

Framework laptops are pretty neat. My friend has one, and I really like the overall concept of them. It's nice a company is finally making a product the user can upgrade easily without an engineering degree.

I used and loved my iPhone/MacBook/iPad combo when I was in the Apple ecosystem. I have a GOS phone and Pop!_OS laptop that are pretty well synced now, and it would be super nice to have a tablet back again that’s not from Apple, so I might look into this!

@ArcherNX1701 Год назад

Thanks for the vid. I'm glad GrapheneOS has made it already. When you do your install vid, would you add the backup & restore feature? I would like to see the procedure to restore your phone setup to the tablet.

@sideofburritos Год назад

You're welcome. The current backup option using seed vault has some issues. The plan is long term for GOS to build something from scratch, but there's no ETA - grapheneos.org/features#encrypted-backups

@IAmJakeDamon Год назад

Thanks for making this video so quickly! I hope GrapheneOS can do the Pixel Watch.

@sideofburritos Год назад

You're welcome! I don't think they have plans to, as the hardware isn't supported/up to the projects standards. It would be nice though to have a wearable that supported GrapheneOS.

@IAmJakeDamon Год назад

@Bloodsaw Год назад

Hey, i rly like your videos. Can you make a video how you would use an graphene phone save without missing banking, games, getting push notifications for mails or other apps. I know you can use separate users. Maybe you can do an example with using banking apps, PokemonGo, mails, WhatsApp (for work) etc. Would you then have 2, 3 or even more separate accounts? Thx and greetings

@miguelrmusic Год назад

With this size form factor, would be cool if you could resize windows to whatever you want and have windows side by side, etc. One of the reasons why I don't do real work on a phone. And this is why I see tablets as just a giant phone despite it not having cell service.

@sideofburritos Год назад

You can! It supports having multiple windows open, so you can have different apps side by side.

@ernestomaserati9417 Год назад

I have a old Pixel tablet with an original keyboard which can be attached to it with magnets. Even if it is now outdated, it was a better user experience I think than this product now.

@BoycottISraHeLL1 9 месяцев назад

when will there be pixel fold support

@TheMMAVOICE Год назад

That keyboard looks like something I MUST HAVE.

@sideofburritos 11 месяцев назад

I really like it. If you can touch type, it should be a quick adjustment with the blank keys. Regardless, my brain hurt for the first few days haha. It's worth it for the minimalistic look.

@ArcherNX1701 8 месяцев назад

Just a question, what are your recommendations for VPN and anti-virus apps for GrapheneOS?

@Mojo_DK 11 месяцев назад

I would be interested of the capabilities of this tablet with graphene when it comes to school work....like how good is the pen support, is there a good app to write/take notes inside of PDFs, how good is the general app comparability. Is the OS just like a bigger Phone OS or are there some adjustments to make it more tablet like? Does using a custom keyboard fix the fact that the standard keyboard is too big? Are there other things to consider or should I just get an IPad and call it a day?

@Mojo_DK 11 месяцев назад

Oh and is the performance good enough to not get annoyed by constant stuttering and stuff. Is the battery good enough to get through a normal college day? What are the things I might miss out on compared to an IPad? That are some things I would like to know in the real review.

@holyscience3763 3 месяца назад

can you pleease give us an update, sir?

@cheesium238 Год назад

I wonder if the GOS version is as limited in terms of speed as the stock is. Saying that because even if it has the same chip as the 7 lineup it seems to be not as responsive, not sure if it's a thing of clocking though

@sideofburritos Год назад

Hmm, good question. GOS is based off AOSP, so I would assume it should perform exactly as AOSP does in terms of how it uses the Tensor G2.

@IslamicAudiobooksCentral Год назад

How do the specs of the tablet compare to the phones? Every time I see tablet specs, they appear to be handicapped compared to phones. Also, when is its End of Life for firmware and security updates from Google?

@sideofburritos Год назад

This site is pretty decent for comparing specs. I would say it's on par with the Pixel 7. As far as EOL goes, June 2028 - grapheneos.org/faq#device-lifetime.

@laberbla6466 Год назад

What I always wanted to know - if you put a custom rom on a pixel, and revert it back to stock - is there also this hardware fuse like on Samsung, (Knox 0x0 / 0x1 which is permanent) where you never ever can use the phone to pay again, or have issues with netflix and stuff?

@sideofburritos Год назад

No, you can install and revert to stock and there is nothing that voids the warranty or functionality.

@Yates__ Год назад

Does it have video out?

@sideofburritos Год назад

Not natively that I know of. I was able to make it work with a display link dock and the app.

@cyberp Год назад

what kind of protection (yellow) do you use for your pixel phone?

@sideofburritos Год назад

It's a dbrand skin. The phone in the video is my testing phone, so it just sits on my desk. I wouldn't really trust the skin for something in my pocket all day that could be easily dropped. If you're someone who doesn't use a case normally, I would recommend it. But if you're used to the protection a case offers, the skin isn't even close. That being said, I do have a dbrand skin for my laptop and I really like it.

@andersontubebless Год назад

Hello, I recently purchased a Pixel 7 Pro and found your channel, after a few days I lost connection and found that my pixel has an IMEI BLOCKED due to loss or theft, I could not return it to the seller in China, and so far I have not found a solution , I read that there is a way to change the IMEI with a custom ROM, do you have any idea how to do this, or another solution? please!
