Earlier this month, leaked on the Internet a video of a supposed prototype Pixel Chromebook, Google's new laptop. On Wednesday, the company officially unveiled its new notebook, which has a very good screen technology.

This is not a Chromebook as we are used to seeing. Not only is it better than the rest, but also much more expensive, costing $ 1300. The notebook has a touch screen of 12.8 inches with a great resolution of 2560 × 1700 pixels, slightly better than the Retina display that brings 13-inch MacBook Pro from Apple.

Under his case, the Chromebook Pixel has an Intel Core i5 dual-core processor running at 1.8GHz, the graphics card is an Intel HD Graphics 4000, has 4GB of RAM and a 32GB SSD, but we can expect to acquire 1TB Google Drive storage for three years. The estimated battery life is about 5 hours and also has WiFi connectivity. Regarding the ports, has two USB 2.0, a headphone jack and a Mini DisplayPort. It also includes a SD card reader, an HD webcam and of course a trackpad.

There is a model with better specs that costs $ $ 1450 and comes with 64GB of SSD, 4G LTE connectivity and a 100MB monthly plan for LTE Verizon (available only to U.S. probably).

Pixel The body is made of aluminum and its entire design is intended to give the impression that this is a team "premium".

If we compare what it costs and what it offers, we will see that in the market there are better alternatives (except for the screen, obviously), but the Vice President of Chrome says this device is designed for those who rely heavily on the cloud. Even today, despite the fact that cloud services are becoming very popular, it is still very difficult to find someone to make use of the cloud in all its activities and even more, to trust all your data to it.

The Pixel Chromebook can be purchased from the store or from some stores Play Best Buy.
