Google may re-enter the laptop game with a Pixel branded laptop

By

 

Just this past week rumors began to swirl about Google possibly making another laptop. Details were very sparse especially regarding the OS the Pixel Laptop would run. I thought that was highly suspicious due to Google already having a desktop OS with ChromeOS. A day later more news dropped and the rumor is the Pixel Laptop is going to run Android. Yes, Android. Not Fuchsia or ChromeOS but Android. 

Now, Android does not have a traditional desktop OS so I assume Google is creating a new desktop version for laptops in the future. Then if that was not enough news, Google is rumored to merge ChromeOS into Android which makes the previous rumor seem more credible. Google have not commented on any of this so we really don't know what's going on.

My take on this

I believe there is something brewing with the Google hardware team and a laptop is definitely something that's being worked on. Will it ever see the light of day? Who knows? Pixelbook Go was the last laptop made by Google and it was released in 2019. The Chromebook world is in need of a shake up and with the rumor merger of ChromeOS and Android along with a Pixel Laptop. It just may be the reset needed for Google's desktop OS to really take off.

What do you think about all this? What happens to the Chromebooks running ChromeOS and do those get upgraded before an Android laptop is released? Let me know what you think in the comments section.

Pixel Buds Pro 2 review after 1 month | Google's Premium Earbuds

By
Google follows up the OG Pixel Buds Pro with version 2 and I must say that the Pro 2s are better in just about every way. The stand out feature to me really isn't a feature it's more about the fit. The Pixel Buds Pro 2 is 27% smaller and it shows. This helps with the fit and the wing tip is there to make sure things stay nice and snug. The rest of the package is very similar to the previous model just better. Check the video for my thoughts and see if the Pixel Buds Pro 2 may be a good fit for you. No pun intended.
