For example, an IPS screen and a normal CPU Google created a new segment of the PC market more than 10 years ago. We're talking, of course, about Chromebooks. Today Google introduced a new category of these products called Chromebook Plus. [caption id="attachment_63365" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Chromebook Plus[/caption] In general, these are still the same Chromebooks; they are not fundamentally different from all other previously released mobile PCs with Chrome OS. The essence of Chromebook Plus is that the user when choosing a model from the Chromebook Plus category, is sure that he will receive a certain level of performance and certain parameters. It is something similar to the Intel Evo program. Any Chromebook Plus will offer a certain minimum of features and functionality So, any Chromebook Plus must have a 12th generation Intel Core i3 processor or better, or one of the Ryzen 7000 models. That's it for now. Of course, over time, the basic specifications will be revised when new CPUs enter the market. Also, any Chromebook Plus will offer an IPS screen with at least Full HD resolution, a webcam with the same resolution, at least 8 GB of RAM, and 128 GB of memory. In addition, each such laptop should be able to work autonomously for up to 10 hours, but here, as always, everything greatly depends on the usage scenarios. Thus, by buying any Chromebook Plus, the user will receive at least good performance, a fairly high-quality screen, and a normal amount of memory. But that's not all. A Plus-certified Chromebook will offer the user access to several exclusive AI-powered features. These include the Magic Eraser in Google Photos, improvements to lighting and noise reduction during video conferencing, and offline file syncing to Google Drive. https://youtu.be/YfOx8BBICfY?t=15 Also, desktop wallpapers created by artificial intelligence, are a kind of personal assistant for working with letters, and in addition, the buyer will receive a three-month subscription to Photoshop on the Web. Along with the announcement of the category itself, the first such PCs were presented. These are the Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming Chromebook Plus 16, Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook Plus 14, Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Chromebook Plus 14, HP Chromebook Plus x360 14 and Chromebook Plus 15.6, and Acer Chromebook Plus 515 and 514. The cheapest of them will cost $400.

Pre-orders are already being accepted Google, which some time ago acquired the famous wearable electronics manufacturer Fitbit, introduced a new smart bracelet under this brand - Fitbit Charge 6 - two years after the release of its predecessor, Fitbit Charge 5. The Fitbit Charge 6 starts at $160, which is $20 less than the Fitbit Charge 5 at launch. Pre-orders have already begun, and open sales are planned to start in the fall.  [caption id="attachment_61031" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Google[/caption] Google introduced the Fitbit Charge 6 smart bracelet Among the main innovations is the return of a real hardware side button for navigation. This was done in response to numerous complaints from Charge 5 customers. The number of supported workouts and activities has also doubled (from 20 to 40). There is now access to Google services - Google Wallet for contactless payments and Google Maps for step-by-step route navigation. There's even integration with YouTube Music, although you can only control playback on a paired phone—you can't download tracks to the bracelet for offline listening. [caption id="attachment_61033" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Google[/caption] At the same time, Charge 6 is still equipped with a 1.04-inch AMOLED display, GPS and GLONASS, NFC, monitors blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), electrocardiogram (ECG), has water protection (5ATM), battery life - up to 7 days. Google also promises "the most accurate heart rate tracking among Fitbit trackers."
