ASUS Googlebook 14 costs 1349 euros at release, slightly more expensive than Acer's

ASUS is releasing its first laptop with Googlebook OS, the ASUS Googlebook 14, in the Netherlands and Belgium in early December for 1349 euros. This is slightly more expensive than the Acer Googlebook 14, which will be available for 1299 euros.

The ASUS Googlebook 14 distinguishes itself, among other things, by weighing just under 1 kilogram. The price in the Netherlands and Belgium was previously unknown, but ASUS confirms that its first laptop with Googlebook OS will cost 1349 euros.

Acer previously announced that its Googlebook 14 will be released in the Netherlands and Belgium for 1299 euros. The differences between the laptops appear minimal on paper, although the exact configurations are not yet known. Both models reportedly feature an Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, 16GB of RAM, 512GB of storage, and a 14-inch OLED screen with 2,8k resolution.

HP, Dell, and Lenovo have also announced Googlebooks. These will be released in early October in various countries, but it is still unclear whether they will also be available in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Google has adapted Android for laptops, including a modified interface, task management, and a terminal. This results in the new 'Googlebooks', which in all announced cases are expensive laptops.
