In the event that you are unaware, let’s begin this post by making it clear what ARM actually is while using some pretty basic language. Compared with its primary competitor – x86 – ARM is a type of processor architecture used primarily in phones and tablets just like the one you likely have in your […]
While I was pretty excited for the new Chromecast to arrive based on its feature set, price and new take on the existing formula for Google’s behind-the-TV dongles, I don’t think I was quite ready for the domination this little device would command in my mind. After all, I’ve had a few Android TV devices […]
Having waited almost a week for my new Chromecast with Google TV to arrive, I had plenty of time to think about what the experience of using it would be like. To be honest, I didn’t expect much to be different from its predecessor, but I was definitely wrong. I think that right now, plenty […]
Websites are slowly but surely becoming the new software by offering a multitude of functionalities right through your browser. There’s no need to download big, bulky packages or to install them. Don’t get me wrong – downloadable software has tons of benefits for power users and it will probably be many years before we can […]
For personal reasons, I found myself with my family in a nice, comfortable hotel last night. I’ll be there tonight as well and I’m already dreading the final few hours of the evening we’ll inevitably spend winding down in the room together after a busy day. Why? Don’t worry. It’s not from the close contact […]
In the event that you’ve not been on the internet in the past month or so, you may have missed the long-awaited return of Microsoft to the phone game. After a relative failure with Windows Phone a few years back, Microsoft left the scene with their collective tail between their legs and focused in on […]
When GeForce NOW became available on Chrome OS just over a week ago, I honestly thought it was as simple as NVIDIA deciding to launch a web-based player similar to Stadia’s version of the same thing. After all, Stadia’s been at it for a solid 9 months at this point, so NVIDIA likely learned a […]
While I’ve recently changed my everyday carry to a non-Google Chromebook (the Acer Spin 713) for the first time in years, it should go without saying that I am a massive fan of Google’s design when it comes to Chromebooks. From the original Chromebook Pixel and it’s 2015 follow-up, to the Pixelbook, Pixel Slate and […]
Sigh. Another day, another YouTube Music shortcoming. I’m trying. I really am. I’m trying my best to move my music habits over to YouTube Music as the impending death of Google Play Music only continues to draw nearer. The library migration worked quite well, honestly, and after that process was completed, I really felt like […]

Here at Chrome Unboxed, we spend a ton of time unboxing and reviewing Chromebooks. It’s in our name, after all, and impressions on all the latest hardware in the Chromebook ecosystem will always be central to our purpose as a tech blog, YouTube channel, and Podcast. Though I spend a great deal of time bouncing […]
Since their inception, the Pixelbook line of Chromebooks has largely stayed in the premium lane. Sure, the Pixelbook Go was a tad bit of a departure from that formula, but not much of one. After all, the top trim of that device costs a cool $1399 and is easily one of the most expensive Chromebooks […]

For reasons that go deeper than I care to get into, that title was a tad bit hard to write. I don’t hate Apple. On the contrary, I actually appreciate a lot about Apple’s hardware on a regular basis. I know, for instance, that they are responsible for the smartphone as we know it. They […]
