Murena has launched the Murena Pixel Tablet, a de-Googled version of the Pixel Tablet that removes Google’s apps and services to enhance user privacy. Priced at $549, it offers /e/OS, an alternative app store, and privacy-focused productivity tools, but lacks Google’s speaker dock and direct access to the Play Store. The Verge reports: First announced last December, the Murena Pixel Tablet is available now through the company’s online store for $549. That’s a steep premium given Google currently sells the same 128GB version of the Pixel Tablet for $399, or $479 as part of a bundle with the charging speaker dock that Murena isn’t including. Part of Murena’s de-Googling of the Pixel Tablet includes the removal of the Google Play Store. You can still download apps through /e/OS’ App Lounge which acts as a front-end for the Play Store allowing you to browse and get free apps anonymously without Google
