it's a big day here in the chrome
0:01
unboxed office we've been talking for
0:02
months about these upcoming next-gen
0:05
Chromebooks we saw a handful of them at
0:08
CES 2020 and one of those well this guy
0:11
right here the Asus Chromebook flip C
0:13
436 we've been talking about it it feels
0:16
like til we're blue in the face that
0:17
it's coming they're on their way and
0:19
today we have one in the office and
0:21
we're gonna unbox it good old style
0:24
because we're pretty excited about this
0:26
particular device so let's hop in the
0:29
box today's unboxing is brought to you
0:38

0:53
Nord VPN and you can learn more and get
0:55
started today
0:56
alright now that we got all that kind of
0:58
stuff out of the way we wanted to point
0:59
out that ACU sent this over as a review
1:02
unit for us to hold under embargo and
1:04
we're kind enough to allow us to at
1:06
least kind of give you a little bit of a
1:08
teaser so this is going to be a very
1:10
short very simple unboxing more so
1:12
probably than the normal ones that we do
1:14
mainly because we want to spend more
1:17
time with this and give you a full
1:18
review you know in the coming weeks but
1:20
also we've had hands-on with this thing
1:23
already so we'll link our video from
1:26
Vegas that we did back in January at CES
1:28
we'll link that below so if you want
1:30
some more details on it you can get that
1:32
we just really wanted to tease the fact
1:34
and get you all excited about the fact
1:36
that this thing is in the house and
1:38
talked about a few things because first
1:40
off this box doesn't look that unique
1:43
and it's not really it's larger than
1:45
most Chromebook boxes that's because
1:47
there's some extras in here so there is
1:49
a sleeve for the device and and then the
1:53
actual device boxes in here and there's
1:55
some unique stuff going on here well
1:57
specifically the fact that it's got its
1:59
own look and we don't see this generally
2:02
with Chromebooks other than ones that
2:05
come from like Google they don't usually
2:07
get their own box basically they usually
2:10
come in a brown cardboard box like this
2:13
so
2:13
this is cool and the reason this is cool
2:16
is this means that Asus and other
2:18
Chromebook makers with this new wave of
2:20
Chromebooks coming out are seeing the
2:22
the benefits and really putting some
2:24
money some marketing value and all that
2:26
kind of stuff into these types of
2:28
devices and so instead of just throwing
2:29
it in the same old box they've always
2:31
put it in we have this nice white box
2:34
there's nothing on the outside of it
2:35
it is completely just white and could be
2:38
maybe a reviewer box but I'm inclined to
2:40
think this is kind of what our packaging
2:42
will look like when this thing hits
2:43
store shelves so kind of cool and unique
2:46
thing there because again we haven't
2:47
seen something like that
2:49
aside from Google made a Chromebook so
2:52
right off the top there is the
2:54
Chromebook and we'll get right to it in
2:56
just a second inside the box as well
2:59
there are the normal things so your
3:02
normal kind of papers nothing else
3:05
underneath that and your charger USB
3:08
type-c charging brick nothing out of the
3:11
ordinary again what's in here isn't out
3:14
of the ordinary
3:15
the boxing itself and the packaging is
3:17
and so it's very cool again to see ACS
3:20
doing something a little more unique for
3:23
this particular Chromebook because this
3:25
thing is a big deal and just like it
3:29
felt in Vegas very high quality very
3:32
thin very light great looking hinges you
3:36
see those quad speakers around the sides
3:38
and we're on the back so we've got
3:41
Harman Kardon
3:42
branded speakers here nice long feet
3:44
across the bottom and again this thing
3:46
just feels like a refined version of the
3:49
flipsie 434 which let me go ahead and
3:52
mention we are coming up on 95,000
3:55
subscribers so we're gonna be giving
3:56
that pixel four away very very soon
3:59
which means we're now tracking for
4:02
giving away the flip see 434 and that's
4:06
exciting because that means we're gonna
4:07
hit that hundred thousand subscriber
4:10
count so if you haven't been following
4:11
along the on the run to 100k giveaway
4:14

4:16
kind of approached this hundred thousand
4:18

4:21
really close so while we're talking
4:23

4:55
make sure and share it out anyway we're
4:57
moving on to talking about the 436
5:00
though that's in front of us let me open
5:01
this thing up and you get this nice
5:04
little lift and do that again so you
5:06
kind of see it across the bottom lifts
5:09
ever so slightly up and we get those
5:11
crazy thin bezels little webcam up top
5:15
not a lot else happening but full HD
5:18
screen here let's see ya even under this
5:22
bright light gets nice and bright don't
5:25
have a measuring tool here with me I
5:27
would say probably similar to the 434
5:30
which was a 300 NIT screen it may even
5:32
be the same panel because it's a Full HD
5:34
as well this one does come equipped Oh
5:36
with the USI stylus support there is not
5:38
one in the box obviously for our review
5:40
we'll be testing we still have the USI
5:43
stylus from HP so that'll be a cool test
5:45
to be able to check to see if the stylus
5:47
works
5:47
you got same backlit keyboard going on
5:49
here you've got this nice wide glass
5:51
trackpad at this time around it's one of
5:53
my knit picks with B 434 was that it had
5:56
a plastic track and so this one's got a
5:57
nice glass trackpad great click
6:00
mechanism and the keys fill a little
6:05
more shallow actually and I can't
6:06
remember it's been a little while since
6:08
we had this device under our hands in
6:11
Vegas it's been months now remember the
6:14
keyboard feeling more like the 434 so a
6:16
lot of travel and a decent click I
6:19
really like that keyboard but I tend to
6:21
like keywords a little bit less travel
6:23
and this one feels like it's a little
6:25
bit less super quiet too so very nice I
6:30
mean just again put my fingers on it and
6:32
typing just you know random keys that
6:34
feels it feels very good obviously it's
6:37
a Chrome OS keyboard so no surprises
6:40
err we got backlighting works just like
6:43
you'd expect and then you get the
6:45
addition of the fingerprint scanner
6:47
right there on the keyboard deck it's
6:50
not a button it's just a scanner I'm
6:52
sure in the add a box experience you'll
6:55
go through and be able to set that up
6:57
and then we get the very nice hinge Asus
7:00
has you know kind of perfected their
7:02
hinges they feel great
7:04
they do really well on the desk when you
7:06
go to poke stuff there's always gonna be
7:08
a little wobble with a convertible but
7:09
that's not out of control and then it
7:12
doesn't feel like you really have to
7:13
wrench it to get it into tablet mode of
7:15
course it's sixteen by nine so tablet
7:17
mode this way kind of feels a little
7:19
silly but tablet mode this way feels
7:21
very good especially with those thin
7:23
bezels and too lightweight of this thing
7:25
like using it in tablet mode especially
7:27
with that usi stylus whenever it shows
7:29
up will be quite nice but I can't really
7:32
say anything more about this device at
7:34
this point other than it just feels like
7:36
again this refinement of the 434 and
7:40
that's a good thing because Asus knocked
7:43
it out of the park with the 434 and so
7:46
the 436 just being a thinner lighter
7:50
more refined version of that Chromebook
7:52
I mean who's gonna argue with that who's
7:54
gonna complain about that not me at all
7:56
and over the course of the next few
7:58
weeks we'll be giving this thing our
7:59
normal review treatment and if you're
8:02
not already you need to go down there
8:03
and hit that subscribe button because
8:04
you're gonna want to be alerted when we
8:06
finally get to give our full review and
8:08
full thoughts on this device after
8:10
actually using it we're obviously really
8:12
excited about this Chromebook one
8:14
because it's a successor to one of our
8:15
favorites from last year but to because
8:17
it's the first one we have in the office
8:19
that is one of these next generation
8:21
Chromebooks and as we expect to see a
8:24
lot of those in 2020 this is the first
8:27
and so it's gonna be cool to see how
8:28
bluetooth responds with and you know the
8:30
Bluetooth 5.0 if Wi-Fi is better and
8:33
less wonky with Wi-Fi 6 and all the new
8:36
stuff that these new Chromebooks bring
8:37
better storage more ram faster
8:40
processors all that kind of stuff we're
8:42
going to be covering all of it in the
8:43
review so again make sure and subscribe
8:45
if you haven't already hit the
8:46
notification bell next to that
8:47
