Google’s hardware event unveiled a series of new devices, including the Pixelbook Go. While it’s less expensive than the original Pixelbook, it unfortunately does not come with the latter’s 2-in-1 functionality. If you want to go all-in on a high-end Chromebook, we recommend you stick to the Pixelbook. Amazon currently has a

deal on the Pixelbook

Intel Core i7 core variant which drops its usual $1,649 price down to $1,350. Order today and enjoy a significant savings of $299.

The Google Pixelbook currently reigns as the best premium Chromebook on our list. It fares well as a capable replacement for a MacBook or Windows laptop, thanks to its impressive set of specs and features.

From the standpoint of design alone, the Google Pixelbook is a dream machine. It’s built with a durable 360-degree hinge that expands its functionality in a variety of ways. These include the laptop mode for extensive typing and full-on productivity, the tent mode for creative work, the tablet mode for more convenient interaction, and the entertainment mode for watching videos and movies. Needless to say, it can adapt to whatever you need it for.

Inside this Chromebook model is a seventh-generation Intel Core i7 backed by 16GB of RAM. This powerful combo lets you zip through tasks even with multiple tabs open and can run mobile and 3D games buttery smooth. Even multitasking and demanding browsing activities operate with zero hiccups.

Google also made sure that the Pixelbook shines in the display arena. The software titan gave it an astounding 2,400 x 1,600 resolution which breaks down to 235 pixels per inch, outperforming the MacBook’s Retina display. This allows for delightful picture quality, and with full-sounding speakers to match, multimedia consumption is made even better.

This laptop has enough power to last you through a full workday. It’s estimated to provide a battery life of up to 10 hours but can extend further depending on usage. Its fast-charging capability can fill it up from 0 to 100 in just over two hours.

The

Google Pixelbook

comes at a high price tag, but its versatility and functionality fully justify it. So if you’re looking for some serious power in your Chromebook, you better not miss out on Amazon’s incredible offer. Score the i7 model today for only $1,350 instead of the usual $1,649.

hp chromebook 15 review db 1

If nothing stands out among all the laptop deals that retailers are currently offering while you're searching for your next device, why not try going for a Chromebook? Here's an offer that may have you consider -- the HP Chromebook 15a, original priced at $399, has its price slashed in half by Best Buy to just $199 after a $200 discount. Opportunities to get a Chromebook for this cheap don't happen often, so if you're interested, you're going to have to complete the purchase before all of the other interested shoppers grab all the stocks.

Why you should buy the HP Chromebook 15a
For those who aren't too familiar with Chromebooks, you should check out our Chromebook versus laptop discussion. We explain that the primary difference of Chromebooks like the HP Chromebook 15a from Windows-based laptops is that they are powered by Google's Chrome OS, an operating system that utilizes web-based apps and Android apps from the Google Play Store. With the lower overhead compared to laptops that need to install software, Chromebooks run fast even with cheaper components. That's why the HP Chromebook 15a promises smoother performance even with just the Intel Celeron N200 processor, integrated Intel UHD Graphics, and 8GB of RAM.
