We’re introducing Googlebook, designed for Gemini Intelligence. These new laptops are built with Gemini’s helpfulness at their core, premium hardware and work seamlessly with Android phones.
Over 15 years ago, we introduced the Chromebook, a laptop built for a cloud-first world. Now, as we are moving from an operating system to an intelligence system, we see an opportunity to rethink laptops again.
We’re bringing together the best of Android, which comes with powerful apps on Google Play and a modern OS that’s designed for Intelligence, and ChromeOS, which comes with the world’s most popular browser. The result is Googlebook: a new category of laptops built with Gemini’s helpfulness at its core, designed to work seamlessly with the devices in your life and powered by premium hardware. We’re sharing a sneak peek into the Googlebook experience today and will have a lot more to share later this year.
Designed for Gemini Intelligence
Googlebooks are the first laptops designed from the ground up for Gemini Intelligence, to deliver personal and proactive help when and where you need it.
It all starts with the cursor, the first thing you see when you open up your laptop. For being the most often used tool on your laptop, it really hasn’t seen much change since the right-click was added. We are changing that with Magic Pointer on Googlebook, a feature we built with the Google DeepMind team, that brings Gemini’s helpfulness right to your fingertips, quite literally. Just wiggle your cursor and watch it come alive with Gemini, offering quick, contextual suggestions every time you point at something on your screen. Point at a date in an email to set up a meeting, or select two images — like your living room and a new couch — to instantly visualize them together. It lets you go from idea to I’m done in just a few clicks.
We’re also bringing Create your Widget to Googlebooks, which lets you create custom widgets just by prompting. Gemini can search the internet or connect to your Google apps like Gmail and Calendar to create one personalized dashboard. Planning a family reunion in Berlin? Gemini can organize your flight and hotel information, restaurant reservations and even a countdown in a single, helpful spot on your desktop, making your desktop your truly personalized home.
Optimized for the Android ecosystem
Being built on part of the Android tech stack allows us to bring new innovations much faster to all our users, including now on laptops. It also lets us provide a much better experience when you have multiple devices, which more and more people have nowadays.
Googlebook is all about keeping you in the flow, not just on your laptop, but also when you’re switching between your laptop and your phone.
For instance, what if you’re in the zone on your laptop but start to get hungry? You can tap a phone app, get that order out quickly and get back to it. Or if you get a reminder for your daily Duolingo language lesson, you can pop over and finish it without ever leaving your screen. It just works.
We’re also making it incredibly easy to access files from your phone right from your Googlebook’s file browser. With Quick Access, you can easily view, search or insert your phone’s files on your laptop — no transfers needed.
Crafted with premium hardware and design
We are working with industry leading partners like Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP and Lenovo to make the first Googlebooks and they’re just as excited as we are about them. Every Googlebook will be built with premium craftsmanship and materials, coming in a variety of shapes and sizes. You will know it’s a Googlebook by the unique glowbar — a statement that is both functional and beautiful.
We can’t wait to shape the future of laptops together with you. You can learn more on googlebook.com and stay tuned as we will share more when devices become available this fall.
