Pixel Chromebook, Google's new laptop with high definition touch screen

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.

If 3 years ago, someone had said that Apple would not be a popular company among youth, probably would not have believed, and the same would have happened if we were told that Microsoft would become a company's most popular and recognized again by youth . Yet this is the reality as revealed by a recent survey.

The survey in this case was not done by any small firm, but by Reuters, one of the largest news agencies in the world. 50% of Americans between 18 and 29 believe that Microsoft is more popular and great compared to last year. Still, the software giant has a long way to become the company's most popular technology industry, since 70% of respondents who are in that age frame believe that Google's Android operating system has greatly improved over 2012, which led him to be recognized. 60% believe that Apple has become more popular over the last year, but the expected percentage was higher for sure.

Galaxy S IV would be delayed by problems with the Exynos 5

We have already seen a lot of rumors that talk about the future flagship smartphone from one of the leading companies in the technology industry. Of course we are talking about Samsung and its Galaxy S IV, which according to all forecasts will be released next month.

This obviously is not 100% safe, and in fact may not be so, since the Galaxy S IV could be delayed due to some problems with one of its components, its processor, the new cool Samsung Exynos five of eight cores . But these are not problems of incompatibility with mobile or anything, but a production problem which would delay the Galaxy S IV for a few weeks probably.

The fact of not having enough pieces of hardware for the first wave of units is something that can affect any device launch and subsequent sales that already happened to Apple a few times in the past, for example. We hope that this obviously is not the case of Samsung, because otherwise we will have to wait more than three weeks to see the new supersmartphone.

3 Ways Apple Actually Innovates

“Think Different”
So the first way Apple sets itself apart from the crowd is to “think different” and not let what others do impact the products or services Apple creates and brings to market. This has to be a very freeing feeling for Apple executives as they continue to put themselves in the driver’s seat by creating new products — and new categories of products — that have driven innovation in MP3 players, smartphones, tablets and computers over the years.
