The Google Pixel Tablet (codename tangorpro; page title style: google-tangorpro) is Google's 2023 tablet built on the Google Tensor G2 platform. It ships with Android and uses the same general SoC generation as the Pixel 7 family, but in a tablet form factor with a 10.95-inch 2560x1600 display, 8 GB of RAM, and 128 GB or 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage.

This page is currently focused on early porting and documentation work for postmarketOS on tangorpro.

SoC / platform

The Pixel Tablet uses the Google Tensor G2 SoC.

CPU

  • 2x 2.85 GHz Cortex-X1
  • 2x 2.35 GHz Cortex-A78

How to enter flash mode

Note These instructions apply to the standard Pixel fastboot / bootloader flow.
  • Power the device off completely.
  • Hold Volume Down + Power until the fastboot screen appears.
  • Alternatively, from Android with USB debugging enabled, run adb reboot bootloader.

Installation

Current state

There is currently no merged or published postmarketOS device package for google-tangorpro. This page is being used to document the hardware platform and early bring-up work first.

Future pmbootstrap notes

Once a device package exists, the expected vendor/codename pairing would be:

  • vendor: Google
  • codename: tangorpro

Notes

  • The long-term goal is to move beyond dump-and-documentation work into actual device bring-up.
  • Because this device is built on Tensor G2, progress here may also help inform future work around the broader Tensor G2 platform.
