I want to see a detachable keyboard option. Since this is meant to be a Pixel Slate replacement, it better has one.

Very ironic. Some OEM like Vivo even limit their charging to as low as 10W unless you use their proprietary cable and charger, that's worse than Apple.
The current PD charging can support up to 240W. So the OEM should ditch their proprietary solution and went with universal solution. Only ZTE and Lenovo/Motorola seem to understand this currently.

I don't understand why this thing still has not hit the market already, why try to hype it for months/years when it's just a tablet with nothing special.

Potat0, 05 Apr 202318 watts is a let down 67 watts is the standard for tablets... moreProbably because they have terrible battery tech vs the likes of xiaomi, oppo, huawei and honor, they use software to nerf your performance constantly and refuse to invest in proprietary solutions like everyone else even though 100w+ phones now can do 1600 full charge cycles which will give you atleast 4 years before seeing significant lower battery health and thats not mentioning the new silicon-carbon batteries becoming available on chinese brands. (they just stick to the old QC and PD standards aswell which wont help).
To me it seems laziness and wanting more money from you for less to just use software updates to restrict overall performance, works for them and people praise them for it.
