We’ve been anxiously awaiting the release date for the Google Pixel Buds since our brief time with them back in October of 2019. In case you don’t recall, Google’s new Pixel Buds are direct competitors to Apple’s Airpods and Airpods Pro, giving users a light, small, pocketable set of wireless headphones that should work better […]
Earlier this week, Google made its “Works with Chromebook” initiative official and there are already quite a few big-name peripheral manufacturers on board. Among them is Kensington who is known for a wide variety of PC accessories and of course, the patented computer hardware lock that bears the companies name. The company has wasted no […]
That headline up there is not hyperbole. I’m not having to stretch even a bit to crown this new duo from Logitech as the best set of wireless, Bluetooth accessories I’ve ever used with a Chromebook. We’ll get to why I think that after we go over what is on offer from the simplistic, functional […]
Four months ago, Robby shared a very interesting product that was quietly sitting at a local Best Buy. There wasn’t anything overly unusual about the Anker PowerPort Atom USB-C charger itself but the packaging displayed a surprise we were super excited to see. Three simple words. “works with chromebook” adorned the back of the box […]
Now that the Brydge C-Touch wireless trackpad is out of the picture, we thought it a good time to return to the Magic Trackpad 2 from Apple and give it a spin once again. We uncovered the addition of this accessory to Chrome OS a long time ago and in the time since, the Magic […]

Not too long ago, Google’s upcoming Pixel Buds passed through the Bluetooth SIG as expected. The SIG (special interest group) is the standards group that oversees the development of Bluetooth standards and the licensing of the Bluetooth technologies and trademarks to manufacturers. Products that have Bluetooth in them for any reason pass through this group on […]
When Google announced the next version of the Pixel Buds, I was entranced. They put up a very alluring video at the October hardware event and just as my earbud dreams were coming true, my hopes were shattered with the ‘coming in Spring of 2020’ announcement. It honestly felt like a gut punch. That’s not […]
It’s Presidents’ Day and to those chosen ones who lucked out and got the day off, I hope you make the most of the holiday. If shopping some sales is on your to-do list today, Best Buy has a couple of smart home offers you may want to check out. Both of these offers are […]
Well, the Acadamy Awards have come and gone. Once the water cooler talks about who wore it best and who deserved the Oscar more comes to a close, you might be on the hunt for something to distract you this Monday morning. You’re in luck! YouTube great Jonathan Morrison, a.k.a. TLD has done us all […]
Chromebook users have very strong opinions about Google’s Pixel Slate. While it’s easy to fall in love with the premium hardware, many (like myself) find the tablet to limited as a true all-in-one device to condone the hefty price tag that can flirt with $2,000 if you opt for the Core i7 model and tack […]
