Google is launching a new tool called Google Essentials to enhance the integration of its applications and services with Windows laptops, initially available on HP's Spectre, Envy, Pavilion, OMEN, and Victus series, with plans to extend to OmniBook models. The app serves as a gateway to various Google services, including Google Play Games, Google Photos, and Google Messages, and is designed to improve user experiences on Windows devices. Google Essentials allows synchronization of mobile gaming progress with PC gaming, particularly for users of laptops powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 3nm chip. Users can access Google Docs, Drive, and Calendar through quick links, and Google One subscribers can enjoy a two-month trial of Google One 100GB for cloud storage. Users have the option to uninstall Google Essentials and associated services if desired, and Google plans to expand the app's availability to more laptop and desktop models in the future.

Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset will feature an improved Adreno 830 GPU with support for frame interpolation technology, allowing for smoother gameplay in graphic-intense games. The chip can run Genshin Impact at 1080p resolution and 120fps frame rate. Frame interpolation technology inserts frames between existing frames to make graphics look smoother, although it may cause input lag and visual artifacts. The new Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will be unveiled in October and is rumored to be up to 30% more expensive than its predecessor. A firmware update may bring AI upscaling to older Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 devices.
