While Google surprisingly previewed the Pixel Tablet during its recent I/O 2022 event, the tech giant did not spill the beans about its specs and features other than mentioning that the tablet will pack the Google Tensor chipset and will release sometime next year. However, a recent report gives some details on the Pixel Tablet and suggests that it might come with support for a USI-backed stylus. Check out the details below.
According to a recent report by NuGiz, an unspecified tablet device from Google, with the codename “Tangor” has been spotted on the official Universal Stylus Initiative (USI) website recently. Although the listing does not particularly mention the Pixel Tablet, the “Model” section identifies the device as a tablet. You can check out the listing in the screenshot attached right below.
Now, what does this listing actually mean? Well, the USI website lists all the devices, be it a Chromebook, a tablet, or a 2-in-1 device, that have been certified for being compliant with the USI standard. So, this means that Google has seemingly certified its upcoming tablet to support a USI-backed stylus. This could allow users to write, scribble, draw, and take notes on the Pixel Tablet even via third-party styli. They might also be able to charge the stylus by magnetically attaching it to the back of the device. Or maybe, it will support USB Type-C for charging.
