Is the pixel c still worth buying

[dentalexel]

I'd buy one used with the keyboard. Looks like they can be purchased for about $450. His it worth it?

Yes, still the only high end Android tablet worth buying. The only other reasonable choice (outside of the Fire series) is the NVIDIA Shield Tablet K1.

Agreed. Can it be used as a laptop for travel, I've tried Chromebooks but didn't like them and I have an iPad pro.

I've been using a Pixel C as a laptop alternative for school and business trips for about a year and a half. Works really well.

Completely disagree. Behind on software, behind on security, doesn't have the NVIDIA X1 SoC, hardware buttons that shouldn't exist and their facing the wrong way and in the wrong order, no guaranteed updates, etc.

No one wants the Nvidia X1 SOC, it performs worst than the snapdragon 820 in the tab S3. The galaxy tab S3 is the best android tablet available currently; thats no question. You can check reviews to verify this. With all of the hardware defects and horrible wifi of the Pixel C, the tablet can't even be properly defended. It was a waste of a device and a waste of time for most users.

Weird. Ok I'm fine with agreement to disagree.

Where they are convenient and easy to press compared to buttons in the bottom middle of the device.

 

[Aquila]

Neither have buttons on the bottom middle, but the tab s3 has them upside down (backwards) and on one side, in a place where your hands would never be while using it with a keyboard.
