I recently chose to switch from Windows to Chrome OS. I purchased the Samsung Chromebook Pro back in May of 2017. I liked it quite a bit, however I was not impressed with the keyboard. I decided to upgrade to the Pixelbook, even though it took some convincing on my part because the $1,000 price tag seemed extremely high. I have to be honest, I have not regretted the purchase for even one second. This is, by far, the greatest laptop I have ever owned. The design is flawless, the silicone palm rests are a fantastic detail, and there is nothing you can throw at this machine that will slow it down. It is a productivity monster. Within 15 to 20 seconds of turning the laptop on, I am online and working. There is no slow boot up, no annoying updates, and no expensive antivirus program necessary. Plus, productivity software comes free. No need to purchase a separate program like Microsoft Office Student or anything. Google Docs, Sheets and Slides come free with my Google account and provide everything I need.
If anyone out there is on the fence about buying this, let me make your decision easier: You will absolutely love this laptop, and if you already use Google apps, or you are considering switching to Chrome OS, I promise that you will not regret this purchase at all.
Thank you, Google, for making the best laptop of the year and one of the best laptops ever made.
Update, 2/8/18: Well, it has been nearly four months, and I am still loving my Pixelbook. It has become my one and only daily driver, and I have sold my old Windows desktop PC. I keep discovering more and more things that I can do with this awesome laptop. Below is a pic from Starbucks last night, as I chatted with a friend on Google Hangouts, worked on a spreadsheet for work, edited an audio file, and listened to a YouTube video.
I have fully converted to Chrome OS, and I foresee my Pixelbook being my one and only computer for a long time to come.
Absolutely buy the Pixelbook if you are in the market and have the funds available. Once you realize that you can do absolutely everything you need to do on one, you will never use any other type of computer.
Edit Tuesday, 8/21/18: Business trip, and as you can see in the picture, I have my Google Pixelbook with me as always! It has been nearly a year since I took the "Pixelbook Plunge", and I could not be happier with my decision. The Pixelbook has inspired me to completely embrace Google's vision of the cloud method of personal and business computing. and my only regret is that I did not do it sooner. And now that the Pixelbook is discounted down to $749 and the pen is down to $82, there could not be a better time to get yours. Buy the Pixelbook, you won't regret it!
