Yesterday a rumor did the rounds claiming Google is on the brink of launch a model of the Pixel Pill that may come with out the Charging Speaker Dock within the field. At this time a brand new rumor ‘confirms’ the earlier one (as a lot as any rumor can ‘verify’ something), and helpfully provides pricing data for the brand new dock-less pill.
Fortunately, it can price lower than the pill + dock bundle that is presently on sale. Within the Eurozone, unnamed retailer listings are alleged to cost €446 with 128GB of storage and €553 with 256GB for simply the pill.
For comparability’s sake, be aware that the value for the present bundle together with the dock is €679 and €779, respectively for these two storage variations. The leaked pricing does nevertheless appear bizarre and will not embrace VAT, which varies broadly throughout EU nations.
If we have been so as to add the German VAT quantity of 19%, the ensuing value could be €529 for the 128GB mannequin and €659 for the 256GB one. That is nonetheless a hefty low cost for many who haven’t any want for the dock, so the official launch cannot come quickly sufficient.
The identical unnamed retailers have additionally reportedly listed the rumored Bluetooth keyboard accent. It is priced in that stock system at €89, which can or might not find yourself being the ultimate promoting value. If it is devoid of VAT too, then including that in for Germany as soon as once more would yield a closing value of €105. The also-rumored stylus is not listed, however yesterday’s leak claimed it could have the identical value because the keyboard.
