Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
As Google’s app and service ecosystem continues to evolve, so does Google Search. The company has put a ton of work in over the past few years to inject as much artificial intelligence and machine learning into Search itself, and as a result, I find myself relying on it more and more to find what […]
Google Discover is a fantastic and quick way in which most Android phone users (especially Pixel users) check what’s happening in the world around them. One swipe from left to right on their phone’s home screen produces a wealth of generated content both old and new without the need for them to open the Google […]
If you’re anything like me, then you’re obsessed with retro gaming and emulation. I love using my Chromebook, my Pixel Phone, and anything else I can get my hands on to play nostalgic titles from my youth and enjoy them in new and innovative ways. The scene for retro game emulation has also been heating […]
As someone who owns several Chromebooks, I find myself turning them off and on many times per day. This could simply be because I’m tinkering so much with Chrome OS Canary, and it requires restarts for a bunch of things, but still – the device’s boot screen is something I encounter often, and it’s blindingly […]
Ever since Google Chrome’s Reading List was separated from the bookmarking system, I’ve been excited for the future potential of it being tied into something like Google Collections or perhaps Chrome Memories or even Assistant Memory. I spent time loading articles I want to read later into it, and instead of it becoming a central […]

Since Sonos and Google went to court during the preliminary injunction in May, the companies have been warring over whether or not Google stole Sonos’ speaker tech for multi-room wireless volume control for device groups. Until now, you could group together two or more Google Home devices that output audio and control the volume between […]

While many of the updates are for Android, there are some features and fixes to Chrome for desktop’s screenshot tool and even its privacy as well. So, without further ado, let’s take a look! […]
As I previously stated in my Google Keep bulk editing article, Keep is one of my favorite services that the company offers. It’s lightweight and versatile in its offerings, even if those offerings are fairly vanilla. I actually love that about it. Where other notetaking services are complex and offer many features, Keep keeps it […]
One of my favorite Google services is Google Keep. I use it across all of my accounts as a journal of sorts for tracking my experiences, thoughts, and more. For work, I write down interesting article ideas, and for my game studio, I use it as a worldbuilding tool for my game universe. It’s one […]
Gamesnacks announced that it would be bringing gaming to Android Auto head units while users are parked back in September, and during CES 2022 today, Google revealed that it’s now bringing several updates to the in-vehicle service for drivers. As we’ve previously discussed, the Ultra-wideband in Pixel and Samsung Galaxy phones will be able to […]
