A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
We aren’t even to the point where Google has officially announced plans to bring their Tensor SoC to Chromebooks, but between leaked info, common sense, and gut feelings, I’d say a desktop version of Tensor is a foregone conclusion at this point. Reports put the arrival of Google’s custom Chromebook SoC sometime in 2023, so […]
This weekend, I did something to my Chromebook that I’ve never done before. I dropped it on the concrete. It was a tiny fall, mind you, but the end result was no less catastrophic. I was riding to a Thanksgiving weekend dinner, watching some football and as the game wrapped up, I was a bit […]
Earlier this week, Youtube made an odd, but interesting choice that I initially got excited about. It added autoplay videos to its homepage across virtually all platforms including Android and Chromecast with Google TV. I initially held off from writing up my thoughts on the matter because I understand that most people detest this type […]
I’ve discussed at length recently how the Chromebook’s Files app is lacking features compared to its Drive web app. Most evidently, this can be seen with the missing Workspaces feature that allows Workspace users to place files in a special group for editing with quick recall, similar to placing a bunch of papers on a […]
Over the years, I’ve attempted several means of managing my work-life balance, creative personas, and even collaborative family efforts. Ultimately, Google Calendar has proven to be the best way to do so, but even it has flaws. For example, the only way to view all of my Calendars in one place on my Android phone […]

It’s hard to believe we’re already wrapping up 2021, but it’s here whether we like it or not. With only a few weeks left in the year, it’s that time again where we take a look back at all the Chromebooks that released and pick our favorites. This year’s been different than most, however, as […]
I’ve got 99 problems, and unfortunately, my shopping list is one. Ever since Google moved grocery shopping lists out of Google Keep and into Shopping as a service last April, I along with many others have been continually frustrated with that decision. The new location for them isn’t bad, per se. It allows you to […]
As reported by Windows Central, Microsoft is working on what could be dubbed the “Surface Laptop SE” and it’s apparently being designed to compete with Chromebooks in the education market. Codenamed Tenjin, it will have an Intel Celeron N4120, and be low cost. It will likely ship with Windows 11 SE pre-installed. Back when we […]
When Microsoft first announced Android app support for Windows 11, beginning with its Insider Preview, many people got excited, myself included. Understandably so, right? There’s literally an app for almost everything, and over the past two decades, they’ve taken the world by storm as utilities to help users get things done, communicate, have fun, and […]
![Why I’m struggling to choose between Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro [VIDEO]](https://chromeunboxed.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/GooglePixel6Pro-2.jpeg){kind=tracking}
This year with Google’s new phones – the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro – I’m finding myself in a strange and unforeseen dilemma: I can’t decide which one to buy. Look, I get it. I’m in a privileged position of having both of these new phones in my hand and have spent the last week […]
I’ll never forget: it was my senior year in high school, I was getting ready to take my girlfriend to senior prom, and graduation was just around the corner! I recall that time in my life with genuine fondness because there was a real and palpable level of excitement that followed me around everywhere that […]
We’ve not been exactly clear on the embargo date for Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro reviews because, frankly, we weren’t sure if the agreed embargo date was part of the actual embargo or not. If I agree not to share info about a product before a certain date, it’s a blurry line on whether […]
