Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet tablet has been an absolute hit in the Chrome OS world and rightfully so. The sub-three hundred dollar tablet offers a unique Chrome OS experience in a space that has been sorely lacking since, well, Chrome OS born ten years ago. The Duet’s somewhat lesser-known sibling, the 10e Chromebook, offers up the […]
ASUS is being rather tight-lipped about the release date and pricing of its new Chromebook Detachable CM3 tablet. While we may have to wait a bit longer to hear it from horse’s mouth, a little birdy told us that the highly-anticipated rival to Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet should be arriving on Costco’s shelves in the relatively […]
Earlier this week, I made the case as to why a new Chromebox could be the perfect home PC option for a lot of consumers. Shortly thereafter, I received an email from a reader that was interested in CTL’s “Buy and Try” program that offers deeply discounted devices for eligible customers so that they can […]
The Galaxy Chromebook 2 is officially available but the jury’s still out as to whether or not Samsung’s premium follow-up is going to be worth its $699 price tag. At least for now, the Acer Chromebook Spin 713 is still the reigning champion when it comes to the best value and overall features in a […]
We’re heading into the final leg of the 2020/2021 school year and that means that many school districts are gearing up to dole out precious budget dollars for next year’s technology purchases. With many schools purchasing hundreds of thousands of dollars in new hardware, saving money where they can is paramount. There’s much more to […]
So, I was making dinner for the family last when the kids fired up some tunes on our Lenovo Smart Display that we keep on the kitchen counter. My son asked me to turn it up “really louder” and after cranking it up to 9, I realized that this unassuming smart display packed a bigger […]
Well, we are officially into the third month of 2021. So, it’s time to bring you the best Chromebook deals from around the web. We have high expectations that that latter part of the year will bring an onslaught of new devices powered by Intel’s highly-anticipated Tiger Lake CPUs, MediaTek’s new ARM SoCs and even […]
I have to be honest, I haven’t had a “home PC” in years. I used to tinker and build my own custom Windows towers just to have a decent, customizable solution for home use but Chromebooks have become so versatile that most days, it just isn’t necessary. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of […]
Last week, we covered a handful of common misconceptions surrounding Chromebooks. Debunking some of these long-held myths got us thinking. Millions of students, employees, and general consumers have made the move to Chrome OS over the past year. Since we have lived in this ecosystem for years, it is very easy to take for granted […]
Whatever beefs Google and Amazon have carried in the past, it really feels as if the two companies have finally buried the hatchet. It is getting easier and easier to find #madebygoogle products on Amazon’s storefront and Amazon is slowly but surely bringing its digital streaming products to Google’s various hardware platforms. Amazon’s Prime Video […]
The upcoming “nearby sharing” feature for Chrome OS has made its way to the Stable channel, albeit, behind a flag. While the feature appears to be working fairly well, it looks like Chromium developers are looking to give users, even more, sharing options on Chrome OS. The new flag turned up in the latest update […]
