WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enthis is Luke with Digital Trends and we're here at the made by Google event, where they've just announced their latest device - the Pixel Slate 2-in-1. This device is meant to be both a full-on laptop replacement and an iPad-like tablet that you can use on the go.

So let's take a look at how it works in laptop mode. The Pixel Slate 2-in-1 has a keyboard attached, which is a full-size keyboard, and also features a pretty large touchpad. As you can see, Google wants this to be a full-on laptop replacement, similar to something like a Surface Pro, but with a slightly different design aesthetic that's a bit less like an iPad Pro.

If you turn the device around sideways, you'll see how the screen adjusts using the folio case - it just requires pushing back on it, and uses magnets to hold everything in place. It's quite easy to get around with this setup, which is definitely one of the strengths of the Pixel Slate 2-in-1.

For the keyboard itself, Google says that it's a modified version of the one used in their Pixelbook. The keys are somewhat rounded - I'm not sure if I'll ever get used to them, but at least they're full-sized, which is great for anyone who wants to multitask or just type a lot. And as you can see, this is definitely a full-size layout, so you won't miss out on any functionality.

Now, let's take a look at the device in tablet mode. You can easily detach the keyboard and put the device in a case that doubles as a stand. It feels pretty smooth to pull it out of the case - once you get used to using it without the case, anyway.

When you do pull it out, it launches into tablet mode quite quickly, where everything is indeed more touch-friendly than before. And this is a 12-inch screen we're talking about here, which feels really light in the hand and generally very good to look at.

One of the new features that Google has added with the Pixel Slate 2-in-1 is a split-screen mode - you can pull apart two windows on your screen, and have one window to the left and another to the right. It's not quite as seamless as some of the other devices out there, but it does work in certain Android apps.

Another new feature that Google has announced with this device is a set of cameras. The Pixel Slate 2-in-1 features two cameras - one on the front, and one at the back. Both are 8 megapixel, which is somewhat modest for a camera on a tablet, but we'll have to wait until we get our hands on it to know more.

There's also an interesting tidbit about accessories - Google has announced that their Pixelbook stylus will be available in a new color, but it still comes with the same old design as before. You might find this useful if you've already bought the previous-generation stylus and want a slightly different option. However, another thing to note is that there's no dedicated case for the device - so while it does come with some sort of accessory cover, that's about it.

In terms of specs, the Pixel Slate 2-in-1 starts at around $600 for just the tablet - which is relatively low compared to what you might expect from a full-fledged laptop. However, there are also configurations available with Intel Core i7 processors and 8GB or 16GB of RAM, which do start to get a bit pricier. We're still not entirely sure how much all these options will cost when they become available, but it's definitely an interesting option for anyone who wants a high-quality tablet that can also double as a laptop.

Overall, the Pixel Slate 2-in-1 is certainly looking like a very strong contender in the market - with its powerful specs, excellent display and long-lasting battery life.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enthis is Luke with Digital Trends and we here at the made by Google event to take a look at a brand new product from Google and it's right here the pixel sleep se 2 and one hybrid device that's meant to be both a full-on laptop replacement and a an iPad like tablet that you can use on the go so let's take a look at how it works now here is the pixel slate in the

magnets to hold it in place and it is a pretty smooth way to adjust the screen and it's pretty easy to get around as for the keyboard itself google says this is a keyboard that was brought over from the pixel book that's been kind of reconfigured to be put in this tiny thin little keyboard and even though the keys are rounded which I don't love first off the bat I could see myself getting used to the the pretty low travel and the it is nice that it's a full sized layout that gives you basically what you would want in a laptop so you can do things like multitask and get a lot of typing done and of course this is a tablet so Google means for you to use this as a tablet just like you would an iPad so I'm gonna remove it from the case here and you can see it's all held together with magnets and it feels pretty smooth to pull out and right when you pull it out of the case it launches into something like a tablet mode where you can see there's at the launch right here everything is a little bit more touch friendly than it used to be and this is a twelve inch screen it feels really light in the hand it feels good it feels similar to an iPad pro in that sense and Google has really done a lot to try and make this tablet experience feel a little bit more touch friendly it's it's included a bunch of new features like you can pull a tab out and put it into split screen mode like this it's a little finicky still Google miss it still and working on it but yeah you can see you can adjust the split screen there and it will work with certain Android apps but not all at the moment the other big new feature that Google is talking about with the pixel slate is some new cameras so the the device has two cameras one on the front one the back and both are 8 megapixel and as silly as it might seem to be taking photos with a tablet like this we all know somebody who loves to take photos on their iPad it does Google has included a new portrait mode as you can see I took this photo just a few seconds ago and the camera app has gone through and silhouetted myself and let blurt out the background it's not done an amazing job but it is there for those who are going to want some more photography options on a tablet like this so that is the pixels slate a couple of their important features to know about the device it doesn't have the success or doesn't come with it comes still a hundred dollars for the pixel book stylus it's in a new color but other than other than that it's the same stylus that came last year and another thing to know it doesn't still have anywhere to put it on the device there's no magnet or anywhere to hold it but it's still there you still got that and the other thing to know is that it does have forward-facing dual speakers so Google is really presenting the device as a an entertainment device as a content device so it's another thing to know about it but that's the pixel slate and it starts as $600 as the base price again that's just the tablet and there's a bunch of different configurations that low $600 prices for the version that comes with an Intel Celeron processor it's gonna be a little slow it's gonna be a little chunky when you move around in Chrome OS but may be good for somebody who's looking for just the tablet and it goes all the way up to a core i7 we don't know exactly what causes that processor that is but it's an 8th gen Intel Core processor that so much as we know and obviously the price goes up from there it also starts with 4 gigabytes of RAM and 32 gigabytes of storage so that's our first look at the pixel slave we're going to be excited to do a full review on that at digital trends Pemexthis is Luke with Digital Trends and we here at the made by Google event to take a look at a brand new product from
