The word \u2018Go\u2019 in the name is certainly fitting \u2013 as this Chromebook has features that are perfect for anyone who needs a device that can be ported around with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We spent some time with the Pixelbook Go to see if this Chromebook lives up to the hype \u2013 keep on reading for our thoughts in full. Alternatively, take a look at our guide to the best Chromebooks to see how rivals compare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Design and build<br>\nAt 1.06kg this is a featherweight device, and at only 11.4inch x 8.7inch, it can slip into most backpacks with ease. It\u2019s perfect for students, as well as remote workers who use the Google ecosystem for most of their day-to-day tasks (such as the Tech Advisor team right now!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The magnesium alloy body has a matt finish with curved edges. Whilst this does look polished, it picks up fingerprints quite easily, something to keep in mind if you\u2019re bothered by this. We tested the \u2018Just Black\u2019 variant, but you can also get the Pixelbook in Google\u2019s \u2018Not Pink\u2019 finish, although that\u2019s only available on the 8GB\/128GB version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bottom of the Pixelbook Go is ribbed to allow you to grip it more easily. Whether you like the bold appearance or not is a matter of preference, but as a self-confessed klutz, I was a big fan. It\u2019s also comfortable to use and doesn\u2019t feel strange in your lap. I did find on occasion that the Chromebook got a little on the hot side, though not to the point where it affected performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both the top and bottom of the screen have quite large bezels that limit the display ever so slightly. Perhaps for future models, Google should look at maximising this space for a better viewing experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n\n         &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oriccabattery.co.uk\/battery-pc-laptop_Lab.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Laptop Battery<\/a> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oriccabattery.co.uk\/hotproduct.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Hot Products\ufeff<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Pixelbook Go&#8217;s high-end design, great performance and affordable price tag make this Chromebook one not to be missed dGoogle released the Pixelbook Go back in 2019 as a successor to the Pixelbook, but with a much more affordable price tag.
