A Pixel Competitor... Premium materials, meticulous design, a high-res screen, and great performance. HP seeks to redefine the Chromebook with the closest thing we've seen to a Pixel since Google first introduced it.

PenTile (RG/BW) not-true-3200x1800 display, lower effective sharpness than the Chromebook Pixel despite higher numbers, regarded deceptive marketing. This isn't a Chromebook Pixel competitor, it is a laptop that used disingenuous means in order to sound like one.

Thank you for a comprehensive review. I ordered a G1 yesterday, as Woot is having a sale on manufacturer refurbished units for $329.99 - $469.99.

Here is one more benchmark: RoboHornet (http://www.robohornet.org/)

A 2013 Chromebook Pixel gets a score of 0.956 (out of 100)

Please revise this article with a tagline other than "Pixelbook Competitor". This tagline is misleading because it perpetuates the deceptive marketing of PenTile RG/BW displays, which is the case for this laptop.
