Pixelbook Go is rumored to what the sequel to Google's Pixelbook is going to be called, and it'll apparently feature a 4K display. Potentially launching this October with the rest of flagship devices Google has under wraps, the device is also speculated to be a standard laptop instead of a 2-in-1.
Google is scheduled to unveil a bunch of new devices at its hardware event this October, and though it will focus mainly on the heavily leaked Pixel 4, rumors say it's got plenty of other surprises, including its follow-up to the Google Pixelbook.
The laptop is said to feature a 13.3-inch 4K display, according to 9to5Google, and will be very much similar to Google's original Chromebook Pixel from 2013 with its plain clamshell design as opposed to the 2-in-1 form factor of the Pixelbook or the tablet-style Pixel Slate.
The Pixelbook Go has been in development for quite some time, apparently. Back in April, Google confirmed it had future Chromebooks in the works, then FCC filings for the product surfaced in July. In recent weeks, pictures of the device have also leaked, showing off a design marked by rounded corners that's strikingly different from the angular touches Google has typically went for with its past Chromebooks.
Google Pixelbook Go Specs
9to5Google's report also "reveals" a number of specs for the Pixelbook Go. The screen, as mentioned, will be a 4K panel. It'll be 16:9 in terms of aspect ratio and support touch. However, users apparently will be able to opt for a Full HD panel if they want that instead. As for the internals, the device is rumored to offer a variety of configurations, including Intel Core m3, i5, and i7 processors. RAM choices will be either 8 GB or 16 GB. The lowest storage option will be 64 GB, while the largest will be 256 GB.
Ports include two USB Type-C and a headphone jack.
Google Pixelbook Go Price And Release Date
