All these products are more impressive than the Pixel 2 rumors. Let's see how they fare...

My middle schooler needs a laptop for school. please let the price on this be good. Fingers crossed.

Supposedly:
The Pixelbook will reportedly come in only one color, silver, and have three different storage tiers: 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB. Those will sell for $1,199, $1,399, and $1,749.

Now we know why the price of the pixel book is so high. Has a Wacom digitizer built in for the pen

 

[Shanghaichica]

For some reason thought it was 249.

Guess for speakers like this will never be cheap

We’ll have to wait and see how much $399 converts to in £. We already know that $350 is £350 in Apple land.

Whoa it has a pen! 😱

I want one! Lol, but this is what my kid needs. They have horrible chrome books the kids use. I suppose kids and I could share this. I don’t have anything on computers that kids can’t see. I’m a big kid myself. 😀

I bet it will be.
[doublepost=1507136180][/doublepost]So it allows apps from google play store

Snapchat access too
[doublepost=1507136240][/doublepost]This event is far better than i was expecting.

That's pretty huge.

 

[The Game 161]

999

Pen will cost 99

Price aside, that Pixelbook looks pretty sick. Talk about bridging the gap between phones and laptops.

If I didn't need full-fledged desktop apps, I'd certainly think about this one.

 

[epicrayban]

Pixelbook base configuration starts at $999.

Preorders today, avail Oct 30th.

$999...little cheaper than expected.

 

[Hustler1337]

$99 pen and $999 Pixelbook? That's insane. I'm getting sick of this new trend in price.

 

[The Game 161]

Price wise thats very reasonable IMO

Agreed but $999 for the Pixelbook is much better than $999 for the iPhone X.

 

[epicrayban]

Pixel leaks are accurate so far including the colors.

That’s too pricey for one kid alone. It would have to be a family device at that price.

"We also added a small pop of color on the power button for some playfulness"

So that explains that.

 

[Hustler1337]

😱 Not a fan of that white colour and that hideous red button.

 

[5105973]

Dongles!

Haha, damn right. I gotta agree with you there 😛

It will match my new Apple Watch.

 

[jamezr]

I wanted the white in the XL! Dangit!

"We don't set aside better features for the larger device". Lol, take note Apple.

 

[tbayrgs]

Lots of jabs at Apple....😛

I literally laughed out loud - that was a great line.
