since the launch of the samsung galaxy
0:02
chromebook there's been a
0:04
new interest in 4k on chromebook screens
0:07
and what that's led to is this
0:10
in the 4k pixelbook go that nobody
0:12
seemed to really care about before the
0:16
so we got the 4k pixelbook go in the
0:19
put it up against the samsung galaxy
0:21
chromebook to really compare the screens
0:25
and we were kind of shocked with what
0:31
in a nutshell what we found is that
0:33
specs on a spec sheet
0:35
don't fully inform the experience of
0:37
using any piece of tech and that
0:39
probably doesn't come as a surprise to
0:41
you've likely come across a cheaper
0:44
phone that has great looking specs like
0:46
for a camera for instance and tons of
0:49
you go to take photos with it and
0:50
somehow they just don't look as good as
0:53
its 12 megapixel shooter that's because
0:55
there's a ton that goes into making an
0:58
it's not just a couple specs on a sheet
1:00
and while the samsung galaxy chromebook
1:02
and pixelbook go share a couple specs
1:04
in common they're both ultra hd so 4k
1:08
3840 by 2160 in resolution they're both
1:12
and they're both 16x9 panels the
1:14
comparison really ends at that point
1:17
like they are similar in those respects
1:18
and you put that on paper it's like well
1:21
probably pretty good and they're both
1:22
premium they're both expensive
1:23
chromebooks so i bet they're both great
1:25
displays and so now i got to decide
1:26
which one is going to be better for me i
1:28
can tell you that this isn't a
1:30
video about which chromebook is better
1:32
for you but when we're talking about 4k
1:34
screens talking about the panels on
1:37
their similarities end at that spec
1:40
they are wildly different when you
1:42
actually get them out and use them
1:44
the samsung galaxy chromebook has an
1:46
amoled display versus the standard lcd
1:49
display that's in the pixelbook go and
1:52
immediately i'm sure looking at these
1:54
clips you can see it on camera
1:56
and what we're seeing on camera mimics
1:58
exactly what we see with our eyes as
2:01
they are not even in the same ballpark
2:03
to be honest with you and if you're
2:05
looking at these and you're going after
2:06
a high-res beautiful display
2:09
there's just no comparison there's
2:10
nothing else for me to say yeah they're
2:12
the same resolution but it stops there
2:13
the colors on the samsung are better the
2:15
dynamic range on the samsung is better
2:18
the viewing angles on the samsung are
2:20
better everything about this display 100
2:23
is better again i know on a spec sheet
2:26
they look like they're going to be
2:28
i can tell you in real life and i can
2:30
tell you by looking at these clips
2:31
anyone can look at this stuff and tell
2:35
even close so if you're in it for the
2:37
display if you're looking at a
2:38
chromebook and you're you're deciding on
2:40
because you want the best possible
2:42
display i know there's tons of you out
2:44
i'm kind of the same way i'm a sucker
2:47
there is nothing comparable to the
2:50
samsung galaxy chromebook at this point
2:52
there might be down the road but for
2:54
right now in the 4k game
2:56
if you want the best display on the
2:58
market you need to go with the samsung
3:00
hands down there's just no comparison
3:02
