Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
The battle to dominate the premium Chromebook space is quickly heating up as chipmakers begin eyeing Chrome OS as a platform deserving of flagship-caliber performance and features. As it stands, Intel owns that space thanks to this year’s 10th Gen Comet Lake offerings but that could soon change if AMD’s upcoming Ryzen 3700C that powers […]
If our source is accurate, which I’m 99.99% positive it is, Lenovo will soon release an 8GB/128GB variant of the popular Chromebook Flex 5. Personally, this is the Chromebook that I feel Lenovo should have led with when the Flex 5 was debuted at the beginning of the year. However, that’s not the only pony […]
We knew it was coming but we weren’t sure the exact day. I am beyond excited to share that this insane Chromebook deal has landed a few days ahead of Black Friday and this is probably the best deal of 2020. Like its predecessor before it, the HP Chromebook x360 14c is one of the […]
Well, today is the day. Best Buy has been touting month-long “Black Friday Now” deals but it was all leading up to the retailer launching its biggest deals during the week leading up to the annual shopping holiday. I’m sure that we’ll see even more Chromebook, smart home, and electronics deals when Black Friday actually […]
On last week’s episode of The Chrome Cast, we talked in length about the best Chromebooks of 2020. In case you missed it, we just rolled out our “Best of 2020” video in which we crowned a winner in three price categories. In the mid-range category that includes devices ranging from $300-$649, the Acer Chromebook […]
It was no secret to us that ASUS would eventually be dropping a 10th Gen Comet Lake Chromebox. As a matter of fact, it was just Monday that we shared that ASUS’s new mini Chrome OS PC was added to the “unofficial” developer list of board names. That said, ASUS has dropped the news sooner […]
Here we are again. It seems like only yesterday that Robby took to his keyboard to clear up some relatively common misconceptions about how Chromebook motherboards are developed and more importantly how they are named. It all started when rumors started making their way around the web about a certain Chromebook in development code-named ‘Zork’. […]
When Best Buy recently dropped the price of Samsung’s ultra-premium Galaxy Chromebook to $799, I was confident that it was just a matter of time before Samsung rolled out a deal of its own. I’m happy to say that my gut feeling was spot on. It only took a couple of days for Samsung to […]
We just wrapped up our annual “Best of” video highlighting our top picks for the Chromebook segments ranging from budget to ultra-premium. Despite 2020 be the most bizarre year in recent history, the options for getting a great Chromebook in any price range are better than ever before and we still have two months to […]
Last week, Robby laid out a very good contingency plan in the unfortunate event you should misplace or lose the remote to your new Chromecast w/Google TV. While this will work in a pinch, chances are decent that some streamers at some point are going to have a remote go missing for good and will […]
Acer’s premium Chromebook Spin 713 just fell to $549 over at Best Buy and that is, in our opinion, the best Chromebook you can buy for the money. That said, many shoppers are looking for something under $400 that still offers a lot of the great features found in a 10th Gen Comet Lake flagship […]
New day, new deals. We’re busy rounding up some great deals on Chromebooks and smart home devices but I wanted to get this out there so you can take advantage of this promotion before it’s gone. Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet may not be the “best” Chromebook of 2020 but it is most certainly one of the […]
