Premium materials and striking design set Googlebook apart
Beautiful on the outside and powerhouses on the inside, Googlebook sets a new standard for hardware. Here’s what to expect from our new category of premium laptops.
Four distinctive models
Premium hardware shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all, so we’re launching four flagship models in Australia built with the world's best laptop makers, starting at $2,299 RRP
- ASUS: Feather-light at just 1.25kg , it’s the ultimate travel companion.
- Dell: Bold and flashy, its height, weight, and display are perfectly balanced.
- HP: Elegance defined, it’s as beautiful closed as it is open.
- Lenovo: With a spacious 15-inch display built for productivity, it’s the ultimate workhorse.
Master craftsmanship
Every Googlebook is made from premium materials like aluminium, magnesium alloy, and carbon fibre, making them exceptionally light, sleek, and durable. They feature touchscreens with up to 2.8K resolution that are bright enough to view outdoors in direct sunlight without a glare.
Our partners spent months fine-tuning the features that you engage with most.
- Custom keyboards: backlit layouts designed for fast, clean typing
- Haptic trackpads: large, glass-feel surfaces with precise haptic feedback and native OS gesture support
- Cinematic audio: up to six speakers with Dolby Atmos surround sound, paired with studio-quality, background noise-cancelling microphones
Interactive Glowbar design
We’re bringing back the Glowbar, which dances when you boot up, sweeps to show battery level, and supports other playful patterns. We’re also opening Glowbar access to developers to build custom, interactive animations.
Silent, next-gen power
We teamed up with Intel and Qualcomm, to ensure Googlebook keeps up with developers and creators alike.
At launch, you can choose between Intel Core Ultra Series 3 and Snapdragon X Elite processors, which are paired with advanced NPUs running at over 45 TOPS of on-device AI power. This lets you run complex AI workflows without spinning loud and disruptive fans.
- Memory: a baseline of 16GB of high-speed RAM across the entire portfolio, and some models go up to 32GB
- Battery: up to 14 hours of locally stored video playback and 16 hours of web browsing
