- Processor Model: Intel 7th Generation Core i5 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
- Storage Type: SSD
- Total Storage Capacity: 128 gigabytes
- System Memory (RAM): 8 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
- 2-in-1 Design: true (A laptop and a tablet combined in one lightweight, portable device. Sometimes referred to as "convertible" or "hybrid" laptops, these devices deliver the processing power and keyboard of a laptop. When you're ready to play, either detach the screen or fold your 2-in-1 into tablet mode to comfortably watch movies, play games, read an e-book and more.)

- Power Supply
- Quick Start Guide

A: You are ABSOLUTELY correct in your assessment. The only reason you would want to go to the i7 or 16GB is if you want to run Windows10 or Linux. As a Chromebook, the base model at $999 is OVERKILL for ChromeOS.
Q: Does this have retina display
A: "Retina Display" is just an Apple marketing term. But the 12" macbook "retina" displays have 226 pixels per inch while the Pixelbook has 235 pixels per inch. Pixelbook has the slightest edge but essentially they're identical.
Q: I'm wondering if this will be able to support Windows 10, due to it's Intel processor.
A: No, it does not support Windows 10.
A: All Microsoft Office Apps for Android work with this device (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, etc.). Great Device!
Q: How much does is the display quality for the google pixelbook
A: I would say it is somewhere around a macbook pro in quality. Superior to an air or surface laptop, but not quite as good as an iPad Pro. It is a glass panel so it is reflective like the former examples.
Q: Does this come with a power adapter?
A: Yes, this comes with a power adapter.
Q: would you recommend this for a college student who is looking for a replacement to his acer laptop?
A: Not if you need to run PC-based software (e.g., AutoCAD). Pixelbook-compatible programs are limited to Chromium/Android apps and cloudware products.
Q: What mouse works with the Chromebook?
A: Any Bluetooth mouse
