Googlebook review: great hardware, underbaked Android software

The Guardian tested the first Googlebooks from Acer and Asus, priced at £999.99 and £1,199.99. The 14in 3K OLED screens, magnesium-alloy bodies and four-minute setup impressed, but Android apps, Google's own software and slow phone integration were called unfinished.

• Acer Googlebook 14 costs £999.99, Asus Googlebook 14 costs £1,199.99
• Minimum specs include 16GB RAM, backlit keyboard and fingerprint reader
• Setup takes about four minutes via QR code and an Android phone
• Phone app streaming is slow and limited to one app at a time
