Google has introduced the Googlebook, a new line of laptops designed as a natural evolution from its Chromebooks without making drastic changes. Five initial models are available, produced by Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, and Lenovo. Pre-orders have begun, with a planned commercial launch in France on October 5, 2026. The Googlebooks start at over 1000 € TTC, and their construction uses materials like aluminum and carbon fiber. Features include backlit keyboards, fingerprint sensors, and OLED touchscreens, with the exception of Dell, which uses LCD screens. On the processor side, the models use either Intel Core Series 3 (Acer, ASUS, Lenovo) or Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite (Dell, HP), with an embedded neural processing unit (NPU) of about 50 TOPS. Google highlights AI features such as the "Magic Pointer," which allows users to invoke the Gemini AI assistant by shaking the mouse pointer or using a keyboard shortcut. Additional features include "Rambler," an improved voice recognition system, and "Create My Widget," which lets users generate widgets using natural language. The Googlebook operating system is based on Android, incorporating elements of the ChromeOS user interface. This emphasizes continuity with smartphones through features like "Continue On," "Cast My Apps," and integration in the file explorer. These features allow users to resume tasks on a smartphone on a PC, cast apps from a phone to the PC, and integrate phone storage into the file explorer. Google also promotes the ability to install Android applications directly on Googlebook computers, with at least 16 GB of RAM available. The integrated light bar, previously found on some premium Chromebooks, returns with the Googlebooks to indicate battery level. Pre-order configurations go up to 32 GB of RAM, with some models offering up to 64 GB. Storage options include up to 512 GB, with some models offering up to 1 TB. Acer offers the only convertible Googlebook, the Acer Googlebook 14, starting at 1199 € TTC. It features an OLED 14-inch screen, Intel Core Ultra 5 325 or Core Ultra 7 355 processors, up to 32 GB of RAM, and up to 512 GB of storage. ASUS offers the most expensive Googlebook, the ASUS Googlebook 14, starting at 1399 € TTC, with similar specifications but different ports. Dell focuses on a compact format with the Dell XPS Googlebook, starting at 1199 $ HT in the United States, featuring an LCD 13.4-inch screen and Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite processors. HP starts with Snapdragon with the HP Googlebook 14, priced at 1099 € TTC, featuring an OLED 14-inch screen and up to 1 TB of storage. Lenovo opts for a 15-inch format with the Lenovo Googlebook 15, starting at 1349 €, featuring an OLED 15.3-inch screen and Intel Core Ultra 5 325 processors. Manufacturers report varying battery life, with HP offering up to 23 hours of video playback and 19 hours of web browsing, while Lenovo offers 13 hours in both scenarios. Chromebooks will continue to receive automatic updates for 10 years, though not all models will have access to this support. In France, Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, and Lenovo continue to sell some Chromebook models directly, with various configurations and prices available.
