Sometimes companies announce products that just don’t materialize. Given Apple’s AirPower has been in this product purgatory for well over a year, it’s been a hot topic on that side of the pond lately. It’s definitely not a great comparison (because most don’t really care about this one, frankly), but a similar situation is happening with a product that Google announced last fall. Two SKUs of the Google Pixel Slate tablet have been MIA for months…
This week we talk about the launch of the first Android Q beta, some exclusive Pixel 3a and 3a XL details that we got our hands on, and Google’s Stadia game streaming service.

Google announced its new “Stadia” game streaming platform today at the Game Developers Conference 2019, outlining its vision for a game experience that can be played anywhere. But when can we play? Google says that Stadia will be launching/releasing Stadia at some point in 2019.

According to a source familiar with the phones, the forthcoming mid-range Google Pixels are indeed called the “Google Pixel 3a” and the “Google Pixel 3a XL”, as was first rumored last week. We can also independently confirm some previously-rumored specifications and offer some more details about the devices…
We’re on the ground at GDC 2019 today in the lead up to Google’s gaming event tomorrow, and we got a chance to get the first look at what seems likely to be the logo for the new product that makes up this big announcement.

For a long time, the only way you could get your Google Pixel 3 or Pixel 3 XL fixed was through one of Google’s external repair partners — which for most people meant uBreakiFix.

No longer: Google is now doing first-party repairs for the Pixel 3.
