If we are to believe the current rumors about Google’s Pixel Tablet, the price could range from $400 to $600. The former price point would be cheaper than its competitors, while the latter would match the prices of tablets from Apple and Samsung.

Google has stated that it does not intend to compete with the entry-level iPad, which starts at $599. To undercut the iPad’s pricing, the Pixel Tablet would need to be priced under $500, possibly as low as $450. However, it’s important to note that this price estimate doesn’t include the Charging Dock, which also functions as a speaker and is expected to retail for around $99.

Taking that into account, the overall price of the Pixel Tablet and Charging Dock combo would likely be similar to that of the iPad Air, which costs around $599.
