Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome
Chromebooks are the heart of the Chrome OS experience. At their core, Chromebooks are the purest expression of Google's operating system. Here, you'll find only articles and stories about Chromebooks, their features, and what makes them great.
Finding a deal on a flagship Chromebook seems to get easier and easier every week. Between Best Buy, Amazon and manufacturer direct, someone is almost always offering at least $100 off on a premium, Kaby Lake device and it’s really difficult to definitively say which is the best deal. One of the many things I […]
2018 finished up with a bang, offering us more quality choices in the Chromebook space than we’ve ever seen before. While I believe we’re in for some great devices in 2019 as well, many users are ready to buy a Chromebook right now and are needing to find a way to decide between all the […]
Wallpapers for your Chromebook are a quick, handy way to spruce up your desktop and make your device as unique as you are. The best part is that changing your background can be done is a few simple clicks and it will sync across all of your devices. Last October, with the release of the […]
One of my favorite parts of using a Chromebook is the ease of setting up secondary displays. I’ve yet to encounter a display that didn’t just work when attached to my Chromebook. Even with differences in scaling and DPI, moving windows between screens is fluid, easy, and the setup is painless. For me, using the […]
If you’ve been waiting until the last minute to take advantage of some President’s Day deals, you may have lucked out and scored some extras savings on a handy little Chromebook. One of my all-time favorites in the 11.6″ category, the Lenovo Chromebook C330 is a subtle refresh of the Flex 11/N23 I reviewed way […]
President’s Day is usually a great time to grab a deal or two on a new car or perhaps some furniture. (not sure why but furniture stores go hard on the old Pres day advertising) Luckily, we’ve found some sweet Chromebook deals that will save you a few dollars this weekend. Acer Acer has discounted […]
We love Chromebooks so inherently, we love Chromebook deals and Best Buy has been killing it as of late in that department. You can still snag the HP Chromebook x360 at the insanely low price of $449 and now, two more premium devices have had their prices slashed by a phenomenal $200. For the productive […]
Chromebook Offers are usually small, free gifts for Chromebook users that rotate in and out alongside the ever-present 100GB of free Drive storage. They don’t change too often and are usually simple things like exclusive Roblox add-ons. While my daughter loves getting these types of freebies, many Chromebook users simply forget or completely ignore the […]
A question we frequently field here at Chrome Unboxed goes something like this: “What’s the best Chromebook for less than $XXX?” Sometimes that number is $200, and sometimes that number is $500. Other times, I’ve answered that same question and the number was $1000.
Chrome OS 72 has officially been pushed to the Stable channel but as many of you have discovered, not every Chromebook has received the update, yet. A second push from the Chromium server rolled out last night and the number of devices on 72 Stable is now somewhere around one hundred twenty-five. Still, if you […]
We’ve grown rather fond of our in-house Lenovo Yoga Chromebook C630. While it isn’t the 4K UHD version, it makes for a great addition to any Chrome OS armada and with the recent discounts, it has been a very easy Chromebook to recommend. Sadly, Lenovo has the Yoga C630 listed as “out of stock” and […]
I’ve been known to say it over and over again, and today proves my point even further: these new Chromebooks go on sale often and when they do, they are no-brainer purchases. Today’s deal is none other than the fantastic HP Chromebook x360. We just finished up our review and I can go ahead and […]
