What happened
The XPS Googlebook will start at $999, rather than $1,199. This laptop runs on a Snapdragon X Elite chip, with 32GB of memory and 1TB of storage.
Where the sources line up
It’s been two weeks since the Googlebook launch, and somehow we’re still learning new details. Last week, Lenovo confirmed that its Googlebook is $200 cheaper than what Google disclosed. That’s good news anyone can get behind, and it doesn’t stop there. Dell has now confirmed that its laptop is also more affordable than expected.
Practical impact for readers
When it was initially announced , Google said the XPS Googlebook would start at $1,199. But it looks like the actual starting price will be $999. Similar to Lenovo’s notebook, it turns out the XPS Googlebook is also $200 less than what was originally stated.
Who should pay attention now
Along with that lower price tag, you’re getting a device that runs on a Snapdragon X Elite chip, with 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage. The model with 32GB of RAM and 1TB of storage ups the price to $1,799. Additionally, it features a 2. 5K InfinityEdge touch panel, which delivers 100% DCI-P3 color accuracy, 500 nits of brightness, and a 30-120Hz refresh rate. Measuring 12. 7mm thin and weighing 2. 2 lbs, it will be one of the thinnest and lightest Googlebooks in the first wave of devices.
What is still unclear
If you were planning on getting Dell’s version of a Googlebook, it’s currently available for purchase on Dell’s website . It can also be found on the Google Store and at Best Buy. The laptop is scheduled to ship as soon as October 21.
