The editors didn't like
Android/Chrome apps can be confusing
Lacks pro-spec apps as per Windows/MacOS
Big bezels for a modern device
Spec largely excessive for a Chromebook (at present)
It's hugely expensive
At this price and specification the Google Pixelbook is simply too expensive. Way too expensive. Furthermore
The speakers are tinny - and they certainly shouldn't be at this price - and Chrome OS is limited. Android apps also proved hit and miss
Rating
Pricey
Still can't run proper desktop apps
ChromeOS still fairly limited
As expensive as a full-blown laptop
Few pro-level art apps defeats the point of the Pen
It's expensive. The stylus is sold separately. It has the same built-in limitations as other Chrome OS systems
ChromeOS not yet suited to every task
Very expensive
Glass rear will be fragile
Pen shouldn't be optional
Pennan säljs separat
Dålig ljudprestanda
Ingen biometrisk inloggning
Low power processor
A MacBook Air or Macbook may be a better option
Wobbly display
Minimal Pixelbook Pen support
Professional apps aren't as fully featured as on Windows and Mac
Only two USB TypeC ports and no SD card slot
Chrome OS has limited inking support
Assistant isn't as useful as it could be
Android apps are supported
But buggy
Big display bezels
Weedy speakers
Android apps aren't optimised for Chrome OS
High price for a Chromebook
Lacks enough USB ports (ideally we'd like to see three or more)
A card reader and a HDMI socket
It's expensive
Many of the apps you can use on the Google Pixelbook let you continue working even when there's no internet access

Abstract: It was easy to discount the Chromebook early on. The earliest models weren't particularly capable, with limited functionality, an anemic app selection and a reliance on a constant internet connection. But the products were a surprise hit in schools, now c...

ChromeOS is taking a big leap forward with the Google Pixelbook, the first truly premium Chromebook in years from the company and its many hardware partners. Chromebooks aren't often thought of as premium computing devices, and Google is working toward ch...

Pen costs an extra $99, Pen latency not consistent throughout different apps, Nowhere to store Pen on, in, or around Pixelbook, Voice commands only work when device and screen are on, Google Assistant lacks GSuite agenda and calendar integration, The best
I really enjoy the Pixelbook's keyboard it has a good balance of firmness and feedback. The trackpad is big and works well, Google quotes up to 10 hours, and I think with a little brightness and load management, it's pretty easy to get close to that numbe
At $100 and with few 3rdparty applications optimized for it, it feels like an afterthought. Even in Google's suggested demo apps, the latency just feels very average. There's also nowhere to put it in or on the Pixelbook, The Pixelbook is way too big and
For the Chrome OS fans out there itching for a new premium Chromebook that they can proudly whip out at the local cafe, the Pixelbook is a win. If you already know Chrome OS does what you need (or, alternatively, that you can live with the ways it doesn't...
