Google’s Pixel Tablet launched with a bundled charging and speaker dock, but no keyboard or stylus, not even as add-on purchases. It’s a bit strange in today’s world where tablets routinely present them as options. However, new evidence today indicates that Google is actually working on releasing a first-party keyboard and stylus for its tablet.
This was discovered by a developer in a URL leading to the latest version of the Pixel Retail Demo app, which is used to block display devices in retail stores and showcase various features of the device it’s running on. The URL was found in the “PixelSetupWizardOverlay” APK, which directs Google’s Setup Wizard app to the location of the latest version of the Retail Demo app when provisioning the demo device.
The latest version of the Retail Demo app, released on May 21, contains strings that directly name a “Pixel Tablet Keyboard” and a “Pixel Tablet Pen.” There are no images of either accessory in the app, and we don’t currently have any additional details like pricing or release times, but it’s pretty clear that Google is (or at least was working, last month) on a launch of these accessories in the near future.
