The Lenovo Chromebook Duet is one of the most popular tablet-style Chromebooks. It’s pretty much uncontested and has little to do with the fact that it’s one of the only tablet-style Chromebooks on the market, in my opinion. While that does play into the equation a bit, it has rock-solid performance for a media consumption […]
Earlier this week, I received a Facebook message from a reader in the UK who was looking for the best deal on a Chromebook in the €500 – €600 range. I nearly had to admit defeat as most of the premium Chromebooks in the United Kingdom are priced so high that they simply aren’t worth […]

The 10th Gen CPUs from Intel offer ample power and performance and the selection of Chromebooks touting the […]
We’re hot off of Samsung’s official announcement of the Galaxy Chromebook2 and while many shoppers may have their eyes set on the budget-friendly refresh, the original Galaxy may be worth a second look. On last week’s episode of The Chrome Cast, we talked a bit about why Samsung’s decision to “dumb down” the second iteration […]

![[U: clarification] Google One subscribers in the UK can claim 3 free months of Youtube Premium right now](https://chromeunboxed.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Google-One-100-Million-Downloads-Feature.jpg)

While you may […]
