For those of you who have updated their Pixel Tablets to Android 14, how has it been so far? Has there been any noticeable differences (good or bad) since updating?

Seems no one here tried the Android 14 beta on a Pixel Tablet yet ๐Ÿ‘€ Looks like you're the one who's gonna share your experience with us if you decide to try it out! ๐Ÿ˜

Slightly off-topic but I'm using the 14 beta on my Pixel 7a and so far I haven't encountered any issues. I feel like the battery optimizations are really effective as I'm charging my phone way less now, but I sadly forgot to do some tests before installing the beta to quantify that and show some before/after numbers.

Haha it definitely appeas that way! I would love test it out... I had a pixel tablet ๐Ÿ˜„. I'm just very interested in the product and waiting to potentially buy it if there are some good sales towards the end of the year. So I kinda thought to see if android 14 has improved people's initial experiences and whether it provided any quality of life improvements.

That's great that you're experiencing better battery life. I'm currently on the beta with my Pixel 6 Pro and I've also noticed the phone's battery has felt much better, especially in terms of Idle battery drain. Good to be us I suppose!
