We recently reported that alongside the Google Pixel phone, a new 7-inch Huawei made a tablet with AndroMeda OS might be a preview at the event.

With industry favoring the hybrid laptops, Google may introduce the Pixel 3 with 2-in-1 tablet-notebook style as it aligns with the notion of Andromeda’s development, which combines the power of Android and Chrome OS in one platform. It is reported that Bison might come with a 12.3-inch touch display and is suggested to power by an Intel M3 or i5 Processor. Sporting 8GB or either 16GB of RAM, while internal storage option between 32GB or 128GB.

The new Google Pixel 3 Laptop with Andromeda OS might be priced starting at $749 considering the earlier models pricing. It is planned as an ultra-thin laptop would surely give completion to Microsoft Surface Book and Lenovo’s Yoga convertible series. It would be sporting fingerprint scanner, two USB type-C ports, 3.5mm jack, stylus support that is touted to be sold separately.

Talking further about specifications, it would be coming up with stereo speakers, quad microphones and a battery pack that is suggested to give up to 10 hours of life. There would be a backlit keyboard, glass trackpad that will house haptic and force detection that is seen on MacBook. All this would be fit inside a form factor under 10mm thickness, which would make it noticeably thinner than Apple’s ultraportable.

Google is aiming to retail the Bison/ Pixel 3 in Q3 2017.
