A Chinese AI blog recirculates a preview of "Googlebook", a laptop line with Gemini built in, letting AI act on cursor selections, dictation and background tasks without cross-window copy-pasting. Caution: this comes from a Chinese self-media account and is not confirmed via official Google channels.
Key claimed details:
- Not a single device but a series from HP, Dell, Lenovo, Acer and ASUS, on Intel Core Ultra or Snapdragon X Elite, from 16GB RAM / 256GB storage, under 1.29kg, up to 14 hours battery.
- Magic Pointer: shake the cursor to summon Gemini beside the pointer — highlight a marathon plan to auto-schedule in Google Calendar, hover on suspicious emails, pick images across windows and generate a poster in place.
- Rambler: turns spoken ramblings into action items.
- Dedicated G key for one-tap search and a Glowbar battery indicator.
