Google may be working on a new Chromebook computer, one with a high-density display complete with a 2560 x 1700 resolution and also be a touchscreen. As reported by Android Authority, a new video posted shows that the supposed Chromebook Pixel as being designed by Google, which, if true, could usher in a new series of computers for the company.
Discovered by developer Francois Beaufort, the laptop appears to be undergoing testing at Google. It’s noted that the video in question was created by Slinky.me, a company that has worked with the search engine giant before. It’s CEO Victor Koch says that hackers attacked its servers and leaked onto YouTube several video projects that hadn’t been published yet.
