Google Launches Premium Laptop: Chromebook Pixel

Apple is well known in the industry for its premium laptops, each of which comes with premium pricing, but they?re not the only one with these kinds of offerings now. You may recall that Google originally tried to enter the laptop market by launching their original Chromebook which came with the bargain basement price of $249.

Now, the company has released a new Chromebook that is more in line with the higher end devices that Apple comes out with. Google?s new product is the Chromebook Pixel and its base price is $1,299. The laptop runs on the Google Chrome operating system and out of the box, it has 4GB RAM, a dual core 1.8 Ghz Core i5 CPU and a choice of either 32GB or 64GB of on-board storage through a solid storage drive. This storage space is also augmented by an additional 1 terabyte of cloud storage. According to Google, their latest Chromebook blows away the competition in terms of its 12.85-inch touch display. Along with its 2560 x 1700 resolution, this display comes with a pixel density of 239 pixels for every inch which is said to be the highest available on any laptop at this time.

As a Chromebook, the Chromebook Pixel puts a huge emphasis on web applications and we are seeing customers getting more and more comfortable with having their data online. Other features of this laptop include 3 microphones for improved background noise cancellation, a 720p Webcam and a backlit keyboard.

The base model will run you $1,299 while customers that are interested in an LTE model can pick one up for $1,449.
