Does it matter? Is the spec appropriate, is the screen size matching? Are the batteries good?

So long as they don’t add random weights…who cares about some empty space

Just like every iPad and galaxy tab and every other tablet out there. Complete nothing story this is.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The latest device to get a parts selection is the Pixel Tablet, along with a whole bunch of repair guides with the usual lovingly detailed teardown photos.

iFixit’s photos after this step all feature shredded adhesive leftovers stuck to the separated screen and body halves, too.

You have a much better shot of winning that battle with this guide, though, thanks to detailed information about where the adhesive is the strongest and what cables you could possibly break while doing this.

I cannot overstate how strange it is to see a major OEM just mount a few spare parts in a box and call it a day.

The latest news is that the whole Google Assistant is getting a reboot around a ChatGPT-style large language model, and it’s doubtful current hardware will make the transition.

Anyway, iFixit’s store has a few parts for this device now, including a screen for $207, a new battery for $67, the whole rear case for $200, four unique speaker SKUs for each of the four corners, and a few wires.
