Although there were many interesting and solid Chromebooks debuting in 2019, my pick for Chromebook of the year is the Pixelbook Go. Here’s why.
You can finally order the fourth configuration of the Pixelbook Go with Intel Core i7 processor, 16 GB of memory, 256 GB of storage and 16:9 4K display. I can think of only two use cases where this is worth the $1,399.
