Only that the search giant introduced Google Chromebook Pixel - a laptop, working on Chrome OS . But not the operating system makes this machine. No. Google has released a response to the MacBook Pro 13 "Retina , Resolution 12.85-inch display in the Chromebook is 2560h1700 pixels, which is more than the laptop Apple (2560 × 1600 pixels).
According to the image density Chromebook also ahead, giving 239 ppi versus 227 in MBP. So the laptop from Google is by far the world record holder for this search, outperforming all the existing models on the market. True, the aspect ratio of his unusual - 3:2, but this screen - touch. Here MacBook Pro can not offer anything, because Apple considers touch displays in notebooks terrible in terms of ergonomics.
Well, the display Chromebook udelyvaet all, and that the hardware stuffing? She's also more or less level.Processor Intel Core i5 c 1.8 GHz (single GPU not), 4 GB "RAM», SSD capacity ... Hmm, 32 GB or 64 GB. A little? Little, but bear in mind that Chrome OS - is the "cloud" operating system, which stores most of the data on the Internet, and a large amount of built-in storage it is not required. By Pixel attached terabytes of space on Google Drive, but with restrictions on the duration - 3 years.
Come to the main issue. Price. Basic version Chromebook is $ 1,299, the model with LTE-modem, which will appear later - $ 1499. Now is the time to remember the recent price drop on Apple laptops Chromebook and compare the cost to that of the MacBook Pro 13 "Retina. If anyone has forgotten, the notebook from Apple is now $ 1499, having in stock SSD to 128 GB. Still let's not forget that the MacBook still works for "normal" self OS X, but the Chromebook without an Internet connection into a beautiful but useless toy.
We will draw conclusions? I do not need. Will the popular Chromebook Pixel - time will tell. But somehow I think that the line for him to line up will not.
