Google has announced the Pixelbook Go, successor to the Pixelbook, at its Pixel 4 launch event in New York City on October 15.
The laptop is designed to be presented at a more affordable price, to be more accessible to more customers. All the while, the Chromebook can last for up to 12 hours on a charge.
Pixelbook Go is 13mm thin and just 2 pounds light with a magnesium alloy body, complete with quite “Hush” keys. The chassis is also surrounded in a grippable, soft-touch plastic coating for easier and more secure handling.
Google is offering the Pixelbook Go with an Intel Core m3 processor (CPU) to start, but it will be available with up an Intel Core i7 CPU at the top end.
The laptop starts at $649 (about £520, AU$930) in the US, and will be available in “Just Black” and “Not Pink” colors, with pre-orders available right now – but the release date is still forthcoming.
Cut to the chase

Google Pixelbook Go release date
It’s currently unknown when exactly the Pixelbook Go will release, but we have an idea. Google hasn’t yet announced a landing date, but pre-orders are open for the laptop in the US and Canada.
However, pre-orders in the UK will not start until January 2020. This is unfortunate for you folks across the pond, but this does give a hint toward a North American release date.
If pre-orders are available now in the US, while those in the UK don’t start until early 2020, it’s safe to expect a US release date sometime in late 2019. By that logic, we should expect a UK release date to follow sometime in late January or early February.
Google Pixelbook Go price
In the US, the Pixelbook Go will launch starting at $649. That price will get you an Intel Core m3 CPU and a currently unknown amount of memory and storage. (Google’s store page is unavailable at the time of writing.)
This is considerably less expensive than the current Pixelbook laptop, which starts at at a $999 list price. That’s certainly more approachable to a wider amount of people, putting it in line with the likes of the new Surface Pro 7 tablet from Microsoft.
However, we’re waiting with bated breath to see just how high this price can climb as you approach the optional Intel Core i7 CPU.
Developing… Google’s launch event is still going on, and we’ll update you right here with all the latest on Pixelbook Go.
