Pixelbook Go Review: The Google Laptop

I'm a writer both story writing and blogging, I also own a small business and all of that can easily be done on a chromebooks especially with so many services now web based. I can even make my graphics with web services like Canvas. Wish more people understand how enjoyable a ChromeOS is to use it's highly underrated imo.

[@peteralexander17]

I randomly woke up and can't turn down a Mr Mobile video, so here we are. Edit: Now that I've seen the video, I've long ago waved off Chromebooks just because I've always figured it more worth it to just get a laptop with Windows. That being said, while this is expensive, there's a lot to like about the Pixelbook. Thanks for another great review!

[@patcola7335]

You didn't randomly wake up. The LORD kept you through the night.

[@peteralexander17]

@@patcola7335 lol. Believe it or not I actually got scared out of my wits. I just got a Pixel 4 XL, and I was using my old Samsung wireless charger. The phone ended up sliding off the charger, made all these banging sounds as it fell between the wooden frame of my bed and the mattress, and I was positive it was broken or cracked... I lucked out like hell though, and everything's fine! Edit: run on sentences are dumb

[@nadeemshaikh7863]

So, you have a Pixel 4 XL, believe me you're gonna be pulled to other Google made products and services. For the past couple years, I've seen plenty of people in Reddit and other social media that they first bought a pixel phone then got tempted to buy a Google home, then Google WiFi, then Pixelbook and so on. Google is playing the same game that Apple has absolutely nailed.

[@Dr.Sortospino]

​@@nadeemshaikh7863 I understand the feauture of the google environment but I still not understand to whom the chromebook are interested. I Had to convert an old XPS 13 to a kubuntu for reduce the coilwhine and I am using it as a chromebook basically: internet, spotify, e presentation, but god if I miss windows. as a student use the office online version sucks. professionist: nope. people that need to use this device just to browse? they can get a cheaper one.

[@Mdogbrown]

I appreciate the webcam sample. Most people don’t show it in reviews. I wish you gave a more in-depth review of the webcam and the microphone quality. Hardly anyone does that with chrome books. I don’t understand why since chrome books are aimed mainly at education. The webcam and audio quality is an important aspect of a chrome book especially during these times. With A lot more people doing online schooling it is more important now than ever to have a good quality mic and video camera. Mr mobile please include these more in future reviews. Thanks

[@VittoIB]

I bought the m3 model and it's a pretty good deal for the frame, keyboard, and Android/Linux functionality. I use it for just about everything now, and I thought I'd miss Windows or a full Linux distro, but it's become a steady and reliable OS with an amazing body. I highly recommend it for how it feels to hold, touch, and type.

[@sampreethachanta976]

Michael Fisher's reviews are the most relatable and consumer oriented review on KZbin. Something about his reviews are so satisfying and enjoyable even if I'm not gonna buy the device. You've come a long way since the pocketnow days. Hope you reach the 1 million mark soon enough.

[@ScottGibbs]

So many tech sites could learn from you. It's clear you're not a regular Chromebook user, but you don't let that cloud your reviews of Chromebooks. You review what's in front of you, and base it's merits strictly on what it is. As a longtime user of Chromebooks, I thank you.

[@mdrahman6732]

Some polls show that at least 50 percent of Note users appreciate the S-Pen. Everytime I watch a video about the S-Pen and it's capabilities, I am surprised and amazed at it's capabilities (heck even much of the comments section of those videos are amazed or are happy to have the S-Pen) that I wonder why some KZbinrs kind of dismiss it (especially when wanting higher refresh rates and crazy levels of zoom on a phone).

[@leonellthelion]

Same thoughts. Stylus pens are just natural pairs for 2-in-1s and laptops. Although I wouldn't spend a dime on a chrome book. For me, if it ain't a mobile device like a phone or a tablet, it has to be Windows.

[@shouryeningle3688]

Been using a note 8 for 2 years now and S-pen was just an unwanted feature of this device. Its a great device no doubt, but after 2 years of usage, there’s a noticeable delay. Maybe its true that android suffers after an year of use. My battery has drained drastically thank to the fast charger. I changed the battery soon after and now I rely on normal slow chargers. I feel apple should be really appreciated. They know where android suffers

I'm a web dev (mostly back end) and android dev and recently I've been looking for replacements for my MacBook pro and my company gave me the pixel book go and man. It's been really really really nice. Having Linux available and all of chrome and Google syncing has been a HUGE plus. Typically when I'm not at my desk I just plug my s10 in to a work station and use DeX but the pixel book is surprisingly really really really nice. I don't think it's powerful enough to do my android development but I now understand why there's an i7 Chromebook. I also found a couple of Linux based video editors if you want to give it a go

[@eagletalon9735]

Chrome OS has come a long way. That being said it's still not too the point where I would consider buying a Chromebook. Sidenote: still wondering if we'll ever get a Pixelwatch

Try looking at the Pinebook Pro if you're in the ARM market. Or Pixelbook, with Crostini.

[@conquered.kozmos1395]

Well Google did just buy fit bit

[@RichardServello]

I have the i7 Go and yesterday I had the screen on for 7 hours and had 52% left. Maybe that was the model they were quoting for the 12 hour battery life...since google usually undersells their battery specs.

[@RichardServello]

You should try the i7 model. The screen is just incredible.

[@MarvinNeumannOfficial]

Seriously I don’t care what kind of tech you cover, I just love your videos and I will watch every single one of them.

[@joserobertocastellon]

Man, I bought one of the first Samsung Chromebooks Series 3 for about 75$, used. I *LOVED* that Chromebook. It was snappy, the battery life decent and I pretty much enjoyed everything about it. Sadly, it got PAINFULLY slow over time, and not even restoring it to factory settings helped, at all. I was really sad to have to discard it. I would gladly have another Chromebook, but for the asking price, I honestly feel you get so much more value from a 7th gen iPad with the Apple Pen and a bluetooth keyboard, and you get a much better experience.

[@WinterSoldier0315]

Chromebooks were a pretty big improvement in how I worked on the go. I bought an ASUS chromebook that had a full 15.1" display, good speakers, and it lasted, no BS, 12 hours the way I worked. I'd have KZbin open in one tab, and then use an android RDP app to connect to the servers I managed for work. I could work from basically anywhere, never worry about plugging it in for my entire work day, and for the screen size, it was super light weight.

At 850 it’s comfortably in the full fledged laptop range. Should’ve reviewed the 649 model, which actually makes sense.

[@123kingho]

fdsdas adfsadfs which actually none makes sense. $649 model only gets you 64 gb which is very limited. Besides, they’re promoting the usability of android apps. Let alone the android apps aren’t even optimised.

[@gianni982012]

Harold Lee 64gb for a chrome browser machine is more than enough. I seriously doubt anyone is going to use this as their only pc. It’s good for people that are more into tower PCs to take on the go or that just generally only answer emails, listen to music and watch Netflix, for which 64gb is still enough.

[@123kingho]

@@gianni982012 Cloud storage won't get you too far, mate. If I don't stream music, I can't even get my music library on board. To be fair, the $649 should already have 128gb. Android apps also eat up tons of storage.

[@RichardServello]

I would say if you don't already have a Pixelbook this would be a must buy. My 2 year old Pixelbook is still as good as it ever has been. I would love that 10 hour battery tho!

[@YonatanAvhar]

I really don't see why you would go for the higher end i7 options, I mean, what can you run in Chrome OS that needs that power? Most Android apps are built to run well one Snapdragon 6xx phones, so you're probably never going to use the CPU to its full potential.

[@conquered.kozmos1395]

You should revisit the Pixel Slate. I've heard that it is a whole new device after all the updates it received.
