Digital Citizen recently published images showing Lenovo’s first Googlebook: the Lenovo Googlebook 15. The images are reportedly an entire press image set of the first real Googlebook we’ve seen.
In the images, you can see that the laptop has a dedicated Google key for Gemini as well as a Googlebook logo. Lenovo also appears to be including numerous ports, such as HDMI, USB-C, USB-A, and a headphone jack, as well as Dolby Atmos sound and sleek, narrow bezels.
The leak only involves images and doesn’t contain any hard details regarding technical specifications, expected price, or expected launch date. All we really know is an anticipated launch some time in fall 2026. Neither Lenovo nor Google have commented on the matter.
What are Googlebooks?
Googlebooks are Google’s upcoming laptop platform, designed to replace Chromebooks. They run on a new operating system called Aluminium OS, which combines Chrome OS and Android into one native system that’s deeply integrated with AI assistant Gemini. Earlier this year, we saw a leaked video of Aluminium OS in action.
With a new feature called Magic Pointer, you can use Gemini Intelligence to infuse AI anywhere as you work. This magical cursor works contextually, and you only need to wiggle it briefly for the AI to take action. For example, moving the Magic Pointer over a date in an email causes Gemini Intelligence to suggest adding that date to your calendar. Meanwhile, selecting two photos with the Magic Pointer will combine them. In a sense, Googlebooks are laptops that run on Gemini.
Googlebooks will be manufactured by companies including Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, and Lenovo. The first Googlebooks are expected to go on sale in fall 2026. However, general reception has been mixed. Because Googlebooks are designed to recognize a user’s intent and act accordingly, they’re semi-autonomous and no longer solely under your control. We call them the first anti-personal computers.
