Since CES 2021 earlier this year, we’ve been anticipating Samsung’s latest flagship, consumer Chromebook in the Galaxy Chromebook 2. With the same Fiesta Red color, pared-back stats and a scaled down pricing structure, Samsung definitely went in a bit of a different direction with this latest Galaxy Chromebook, and we’ll obviously need time to decide […]
Since Samsung shared that the Galaxy Chromebook 2 would officially launch on March 1st 2021, we’ve been collectively waiting for it’s arrival. With a bit of a different take on the Galaxy Chromebook formula the company laid out with 2020’s original take on the premium Chromebook, we’ve been anxious to see how this pared-down version […]
This week on The Chrome Cast, we start our conversation out by highlighting the very-excellent Simplify Gmail Chrome extension that just hit version 2.0. We reported on this earlier in the week and many, many people seemed very interested in the service and we get into a few of the reasons why this take on […]
Simplify Gmail v2 is interesting to many users, it would seem. I posted about the service just a few days ago and the interest has been through the roof. That made me feel a tad bit sad, honestly. I’ve been using Simplify Gmail for quite some time and only mentioned it in passing in an […]

OK, so not everyone is as […]
It wasn’t too long ago that we unearthed a new contender to the Lenovo Chromebook Duet in the form of a new detachable Chromebook from ASUS. At the time, we only had early retail listings to go off of and a few product-related PDFs, but we were able to piece together most of the story […]
Does anyone actually like being in their inbox? I know I don’t. Email is a necessary evil and something we all deal with because, frankly, we must. Over the years, services and email clients have come and gone that try a different take on email or try to help you sort through the daily chaos […]
When it comes to Hiroshi Lockheimer making bold tweets regarding software or hardware from Google, the SVP of Android, Chrome, Chrome OS, Play, and Photos usually shows up with some very compelling content. After all, he knows a lot about what is going on behind the scenes at Google and has his hands in many […]
One of the updates that rolled out with Chrome OS 88 was an enhancement to the Virtual Desk animation speed. While I praised this upgrade before it actually arrived in the Stable Channel, the implementation that ended up in Chrome OS 88 is a bit of a mess and makes for a really bad end […]
For those of you who use Chrome OS’ Virtual Desks on a regular basis, you know all too well how they have evolved over time. From being an absolutely basic feature at first – presenting users with a total of 4 desktops to virtually move through – to the more fully-featured version we have now, […]
This week on The Chrome Cast, we’re celebrating 100 episodes with a little giveaway. You can find details below on how to get entered beneath the podcast embed where we’re talking quite a bit about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2, the reservations, the pre-orders, the release dates, and the expectations that come along with […]
At the ‘Learning With Google’ event that happened a few days ago, there was a ton of new information given about the work happening behind the scenes regarding Google services for the education sector.
