It has only been days since we uncovered clear evidence that the upcoming Chromebook ‘Atlas’ looks to be #madebyGoogle and will likely be making an appearance at the yet-to-be-official October 4th hardware event. In that article, we talked briefly about another device – ‘Nocturne’ – that has been increasingly mentioned in commits next to ‘Atlas’ […]

Proof That ‘Atlas’ Will Be A #madebyGoogle Chromebook
Just 11 days ago I wrote an article titled New Chromebook ‘Atlas’ Could Be #madebyGoogle. In that article we looked at a few reasons we believed ‘Atlas’ could possibly be one of the next #madebyGoogle Chromebooks. ONE of the next, you ask? Yeah, I have a gut feeling that there will be two or three […]

Just a few days ago news broke that a very credible source (Evan Blass: @evleaks) had it on good authority that we’ll see a followup to the Pixelbook at this year’s Google hardware event, likely on October 4th. Obviously, we’re quite excited about an update to the Pixelbook as it is, in my opinion, the […]

The Chromebook known simply as ‘Atlas’ is making waves this week as it may be the first Chrome OS device to sport a true 4K resolution display. We were sitting around the office this morning kicking around ideas of what the application for such a pixel-dense display could be on a form-factor as small as […]

Back in February, we uncovered a commit pointing to what looked like the beginnings of development of the first 4K Chromebook. In that post, we talked through all the ins-and-outs of 4K, how it measures, how it relates to image clarity and the impact it has on system performance.

Q1 of 2018 is rapidly coming to an end and we have seen the release of numerous Apollo Lake Chromebooks geared toward the education market and there are even more coming down the pipeline. On top of that, Chromeboxes have made a comeback worthy of an ESPN highlight reel.

According to a report from CNBC this week, Google has been working on an AI chatbot that’s set to potentially integrate into Google Search or other future public product launches. Apparently, Google employees are being asked to test a new search page design that incorporates human-like question-and-answer format results on top of the already existing […]

Back in February, Google promised that by the end of 2021, Stadia would have 100 games to play, and while that initially seemed like a tall order, this week marks the fulfillment of that wild promise with the release of the long-awaited title Chorus, which happens to be that 100th game! While this doesn’t mean […]

Ever since Google introduced the new Adaptive Auto-Brightness feature to Chromebooks, I have detested it. The screen will automatically dim based on machine learning models and even ambient light for devices with an ambient sensor built-in. Unfortunately, for many people I’ve spoken to (myself included), this is super annoying and on average, they prefer to […]

Google has been slowly adding more and more creatures to its growing library of 3D rendered objects you can view in AR (augmented reality) via the Google app. These objects are interactive and built to scale, so if you’d like a full-sized 3D lion in your living room, for instance, you can simply search for […]
Continue ReadingAndroid 11 coming to Chromebooks and will overhaul Android apps on Chrome OS
Just last week on The Chrome Cast, we were discussing a mysterious new version of the Android container that has been in the works for a long time over in the Chromium Repositories. We didn’t talk long as I’ve had trouble narrowing down exactly why this newer way of running Android on Chromebooks was even […]

Well, the day has come and ‘Atlas’ as we’ve known it all this time is now the Pixelbook Go. With the official announcement a surprise to no one today at the annual Google hardware event, we now have not only a face to put with the Pixelbook Go name: we have some thoughts and impressions.
Continue ReadingPixelbook Go: all the things we still don’t know yet [VIDEO]
It is leak season around here and there has never been a piece of hardware that has leaked like the Pixel 4. Because of this climate, it is only right that the new Pixelbook Go also leaked out, albeit in a much more standard, non-laid-bare sort of way. While we love the fact that we […]
Continue ReadingPixelbook Go will likely launch with these additional features [VIDEO]
There are a ton of details we now know about Google’s upcoming Chromebook: the Pixelbook Go. From screen size/resolution to build materials, configurations, and speaker setups, we’re more familiar with this year’s #madebyGoogle Chromebook than any that came before it. It only makes sense, really. We (along with many other sites) have been tracking the […]
