CNET USA

The Pixel Slate has a nice display
solid construction
a great-feeling keyboard accessory
supports mice and trackpads (like all Chromebooks)
and has always-on Google Assistant as an option.

The Pixel Slate feels a little too heavy and has buggy software and unimpressive performance. It's expensive compared to competing Chromebook/tablet alternatives.
