According to an expert source speaking with Android Authority, Google is undoubtedly dealing with a follower to the very first Pixel Tablet. The slate is still thought to be “lots of months” away from being revealed.

The second-generation design is being prototyped with a keyboard cover, the Google source states, with pogo pins utilized to connect the cover to the tablet. It likewise doubles up as a stand to keep the tablet standing, as we’ve seen with numerous other tablets.
