Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
UPDATE 4/30/2020 @ 2:15pm – It looks like Best Buy has pulled down the pre-order status and replaced it with ‘coming soon.’ We’re unclear about why, but you can read more about it here. I guess its just going to be that sort of week, huh? Monday started off with the Pixel Buds app showing […]
“You won’t have to wait much longer.” That was the response from an undisclosed source when I asked for a ballpark release date for the Lenovo Chromebook Duet. Granted, that’s no surprise with how many listings have popped up around the web. Multiple Lenovo websites from various regions all over Europe have a landing page […]
Later this week, we’re planning a video out about the thoughts I’ve put together around the Lenovo Chromebook 10e tablet. My time with this device has completely been about experiment and trial, not really about suggesting you buy it or skip it. You see, this device will likely never be a tablet I suggest most […]
In this week’s episode of The Chrome Cast, we discussed the ins and outs of the current Chromebook market and why getting your hands on a good device at a decent price could be a challenge for the foreseeable future. While inventory is thin and sales are tough to find, that doesn’t mean you have […]
Today is kinda the day, folks: a device that is very, very similar to the Lenovo Chromebook Duet is in the house and we’re doing an old-fashioned unboxing for you to see. The Lenovo Chromebook 10e is in many ways a re-skinned version of the Chromebook Duet with an education focus in its approach to […]
At this point, we’re all ready for the Lenovo Duet Chromebook to just show up already. With all the landing pages and product pages and pre-order pages already out there, we are likely not far off from a launch at this point. While future Chromebooks and other electronics may get delayed due to the pandemic, […]
Just yesterday I was lamenting a bit about the current state of affairs in the Chromebook world: specifically, the lack of device inventory across the board likely caused by the movement of so many workers performing their jobs at home in combination with students participating in remote learning. Right now, more than ever, it is […]
For the past couple of years, it hasn’t been unusual to find one or more Chromebook models on Amazon’s top-seller lists or see a Chrome device carrying the coveted Amazon Choice badge that denotes a very popular product. Ever since the days of the ASUS Chromebook Flip C302, Chromebooks have grown in popularity among Amazon […]
We haven’t seen a ton of new features rolling out for the Chromebook camera lately. With the current state of cameras on Chromebooks, you can’t really blame the developers for not focusing in on this feature. Cameras across the board for Chrome OS laptops, detachables and convertibles are pretty lame with only a few standout […]
When it comes to Chromebook releases, there are a few things we expect on a semi-regular basis: unclear launch windows, delayed review units, spotty in-store availability, and few included markets. OK, that’s maybe a bit harsh, but it is mostly-accurate to say that Chromebook releases and launches are far from polished gems. To add a […]
We’re not the most patient folks around the Chrome Unboxed office. The day the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook launched, Robby made the 45-minute drive to the nearest Best Buy that had it in inventory and was back at the office by lunch. As excited as we were for the Galaxy, there is another device that we […]
We’re still a couple of months out from the release of what could be the most successful consumer-focused Chrome OS tablets ever made. The Lenovo Duet Chromebook Tablet captured out hearts in Las Vegas this past January but shortly thereafter, Lenovo announced a ruggedized version of the Duet that will be marketed to educational institutions […]
