Android has long since had the ability to add Work or managed profiles and let you compartmentalize your life. Turning off work when you get home so you can focus on your family and personal data, and vice versa when you get to the office or start performing office tasks. With what we believe is […]

Pixel Watch and Pixel Buds Pro reach their lowest-ever prices for Prime Day
OK, so I have to address the elephant in the room for this one. Yesterday, I pointed to the fact that – for Chromebooks, at least – Best Buy’s Black Friday in July sales are better than what we’re seeing over at Amazon. For Chromebooks, this means the difference in taking advantage of great deals […]
Continue Reading3 new ways to leverage Chrome on Apple iOS devices
Google is constantly making changes to deliver an exceptional browsing experience to all users, regardless of their OS of choice.

Continue ReadingHow Google could leverage ‘Chromebook X’ to help improve device build quality
Over the past couple of weeks, a new effort by Google has started coming into focus. First discovered as ‘Chromebook X’ and later revealed to be moving forward as ‘Chromebook Plus’, Google’s move to create a differentiation in the Chromebook ecosystem is one that could have lasting ramifications on the market as a whole. Specifically, […]
Continue ReadingGoogle Calendar on Android will soon let you share events like you share links or images
Have you ever wanted to blast out a Google Calendar event you’re organizing to a large number of people in your organization without having to spin up Gmail? If only there were a way to grab a direct link to an event and share it in a group chat or something of the sort instead […]
Continue ReadingWalmart is making an event cheaper Onn. Streaming Stick with Google TV
This is one I did not see coming. After releasing what I would call the absolute go-to streaming box you can buy right now in the Onn. Streaming Box with Google TV (super creative name, right?), it looks like Walmart is prepping another model that streams at only 1080p as well and will obviously undercut […]

As a guy who has been waiting a very long time for the Pixel Fold, you can absolutely trust that I want to see everything about this phone with rose-colored glasses. I want it to be better at tasks than other phones. I want it to be more fun to use and I want it […]
Continue ReadingThe fiery Samsung Galaxy Chromebook hits its lowest-ever price and may finally make sense
It’s been three and a half years since we first laid eyes on the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook at CES 2020. It’s wild to think of all that has transpired in that time both in the world at large and in the ChromeOS space. Back then, I fully thought the Galaxy Chromebook was going to be […]

This week on The Chrome Cast, we begin our discussion by talking through the upcoming Google-made hardware that is set to release this month. The Pixel Tablet and the Pixel Fold are set to be unleashed on the world in the next few weeks, and both devices bring unanswered questions that won’t be addressed until […]
Continue ReadingGoogle’s Pixel Fold development was a long affair, and that could make it truly special
I’ve said it a few times before, but there’s never been a phone I’ve waited longer for than the Pixel Fold. Even the Palm Pre and the 6-month wait I endured for my first real smartphone doesn’t even touch the surface of how long I’ve been anticipating this new, folding device from Google. On some […]

We’re all familiar with Chromebooks for work, education, and other consumer computing needs; but what if I told you that behind the scenes, ChromeOS is being used in some very public places that you would likely never notice? From signage to interactive trivia to medical facilities, the same OS that powers your Chromebook is slowly […]
Continue ReadingGoogle is testing Steam games for entry-level Intel Alder Lake N100/N200 Chromebooks
I’ll be honest, this shocked me a little bit. Though my review of the excellent Lenovo IdeaPad Chromebook Flex 3i (ugh, that name) was quite glowing, it’s not the sort of device I’d expect to run a bunch of Steam games on any time soon. Yet, with what I’ve found in the Chromium Repositories, it […]

Google recently introduced the “Help me write” feature in Docs as part of its Duet AI for Google Workspace initiative. This new tool aims to enhance productivity and workflow by providing assistance with writing tasks (not replacing creativity or originality!). Many users who have gained access by applying to the Workspace Labs waitlist are already […]
Continue ReadingA new entry-level Chromebook tablet is on the way with the Kompanio 520 inside
In all of our excitement surrounding ‘Geralt’ – the MediaTek MT8188-based Chromebook tablet development board – I completely missed the beginnings of yet another tablet-based ChromeOS device right under my nose. Code named ‘Starmie’, this new Chromebook development board is clearly a detachable, is coming with MediaTek’s newer entry-level Kompanio 520 inside, and from the […]

This week on The Chrome Cast, we spend the vast majority of the show discussing what we’re expecting to see from Google at I/O 2023. With the Pixel 7a, Pixel Tablet, and Pixel Fold leaking entirely in the past couple weeks, it will be a packed event full of all sorts of software updates and […]
