A:AnswerHi Johnnie94,
I have the Pixelbook Go 13.3 TS Chromebook with the Intel i5 - 8GB - 128GB SSD. I was amazed how fast it was and what i could do on it. This unit will allow you to download Apps from the Google Play Store. I downloaded MS Word and Excel although Google Docs is an excellent word processing software too. Google also has fine presentation software also.
The touch display screen is bright and clear and wide enough 16:9 aspect, so that two pages of a word document can be displayed at one time if so desired. Great for students. It features a center-placed trackpad, which is adjustable for sensitivity. The keys on the keyboard are backlit and can be adjusted for brightness level. Only an Android smart phone can connect through BT to lock the unit and turn it on, if you wish. It will also allow you to send and receive messages from your phone and, or Pixelbook. This Pixelbook does utilize the voice commands of the Google Assistant also. There are thousands of Apps at the Play Store, and in my opinion, this Chrome OS rivals Windows and Mac for productivity. Chrome OS is a simple easy to learn system. It is NOT bloated like Windows or Mac so a high end processor, RAM memory, or huge hard drive is not needed. Cloud backups is available. This is a sold unit for school-related productivity, note taking, and entertainment too. It is great for creating and editing word processing and spreadsheets, e-mail, and surfing the web for information. But it is NOT a gamer or able to do heavy graphics and photo editing.
Hope this helps you. And good luck to your sister's college career.
A:AnswerYes, but keep in mind it is the GOogle Play Store Android app version. FOr basic stuff in each Word, Excel and Powerpoint, it's fine. But if you're working outside of OneDrive for files, working with big powerpoints or want to do macros in Word, it's not that great.
A:AnswerThe Google specifications for the Pixelbook Go state that the display is constructed of Corning Concore Glass. Concore glass reputedly has similar hardness and durability qualities to Gorilla Glass, but the two Corning products are used differently. Gorilla Glass is used as an additional layer of glass which is laminated on top of the display panel, which results in a thicker display panel. Concore Glass however, is used as an integral part of the display panel; it comprises the top layer of the display panel, rather than a separate layer on top of the display. Using Concore Glass results in a thinner and lighter display panel. I hope that you find this information helpful. And if you are curious, the Pixelbook Go is really a great Chromebook!
A:AnswerThe m3 and i5 are almost the same except the i5 is slightly better but most of the money that you pay when you get the i5 will be due to the 128gb ssd. Otherwise the m3 and i5 are very Similar.
