Spectacular Sound
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I am loving my new Pixelbook Go. I bought it basically to have a bigger screen for my mobile phone, since I already have an Android Phone. I am not disappointed. Listening to music sounds awesome! It has a rich and vibrant sound, the bass shines through, but the music is loud and clear. If you are wondering what the benefits of having a machine like this is, well, it's lightweight, fast, and has apps that the phone can't run, albeit, some apps that it can not run that a phone can. But since it has a chrome web browser, you can get those on the web browser rather than having to deal with an app. Video on it seems to be great as well. I don't really need hi def picture, but it sure is clear none the less. If there was one thing about it that I don't like, it would be that there isn't a "home screen" per se. They call it Pinning to Shelf. The way it works, you swipe up on the bottom of the screen, and all the apps are there. Instead of a traditional home screen like on a PC/laptop. If I could put the apps I use on the screen that you see after the super fast boot up time, that would ideal for me. You can use the touch screen, or you can hook up a Bluetooth mouse to it, which is what I prefer to do. But, it is very touchy doing so. If you move just a tiny bit, it doesn't click like it should, it's as though you are trying to move something, rather than opening it up. Small things, but overall, I am impressed. There are 2 USB-C ports, and a 3.5 mm port for plugging in a headset. I find I am using this more and more over my Gaming Laptop. Only because I don't have a whole lot of time to play anymore, work is plentiful. I think this has a webcam in it, but I have not used it, so I can't comment on that. Yeah, it's not a cheap machine, but I expect to get a few years out of it (I hope). This version of the Chromebook opens only like a traditional laptop, it does not fold all the way around. I think that is called tenting, but this does not do that. Hope this helps with deciding if this is right for you. :)

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:Google servicesI waited to post this until I had a few months of usage on my Pixelbook. I am so happy I decided to purchase this. I am a trusted "Google" user and already have most products that they have released. Automatically syncs using my Google account with all associated products. All updates are automatic, turns on within seconds of opening, and is extremely easy to use. For someone like me that needed something for simplicity and on a system I was familiar with, the Pixelbook is perfect!

totally awesome machine
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I was really skeptical at first because this is super expensive for a chrome machine. However I was pleasantly surprised with the result. You can definitely get a MacBook Air for this price ... so why bother with this? The specs themselves are not that difference ... slightly better on the screen resolution... and the screen is touch and the CPU is slightly faster but overall you're not going to feel that. What you will feel is the longevity and reliability of this machine. It boots instantly. It will work for years with the guaranteed multiyear support.

Excellent
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendI would absolutely give this 5 stars, however, my first one went black screen within 2 days of having it. That said, Best Buy upheld their amazing customer service and order a new one right away. And it is perfect! It's fast, easy, and sets up in a snap. The colors are magnificent and it's light. I would definitely recommend this.

Good but pricey
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality4 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5This is a very nice laptop running on Android. It has a lot of nice hardware but your paying for it. The only down side is the touch pad, it does not respond very well, right clicks dont register. I use a trackball mouse so this is not an issue for me.

Q: QuestionI want to get this for my daughter, but I want to know if I can install Windows 10.
Asked by Stephan.
- A:Answer Hi, Stephan! No, this is a Chromebook. You can't install programs on it, and its operating system is Chrome OS. Basically a web brower, however these days Chromebooks can run Linux and Android apps, so they are a lot more useful than they use to be. I prefer a Chromebook to a Windows computer, but I understand the hesitation. I still use a Windows computer at work and it is nice to load programs, but I've found that for about 95 percent of what I do, I can use a Chromebook.
