Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
This one comes with free grain of salt or two, but we may now know the date of Google’s upcoming hardware event where we’ll see the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, but also some other hardware we here at Chrome Unboxed are way more excited about. Don’t get me wrong, I think the Pixel […]
We’re starting to see wider availability of 8th Gen Core i7 Chromebooks as of late with HP, Lenovo and Acer all bringing their own iterations to the premium Chromebook party. Lenovo has yet to maker theirs official but suffices to say, we are entering an era of very powerful Chrome devices that will continue to […]
We have been inundated with ‘Atlas’ and Google hardware news this week, from the Nest Hub Max leak to this latest bit of news from Geekbench to the FCC filing a few days ago, there is more action in July surrounding Google-made devices than we’ve ever seen before. I still hold to my assumption that […]
Today’s discovery by Kyle Bradshaw over at 9to5 Google has the Chrome Unboxed office absolutely buzzing. We usually have to wait until September for these types of leaks and #madebyGoogle hardware hype, but we’re getting a little dose earlier than normal this year. We need to talk about the FCC filing, what it is, and […]
If you’re looking to get your hands on a powerful Chromebook but you’re strapped for cash, we just stumbled across an eBay storefront just for you.

We’ve talked about ‘Atlas’ for what feels almost like an eternity around here. As a device that began showing up in development alongside the Pixel Slate (‘Nocturne’ back then), we are beyond long-in-the-tooth at this point as we continue waiting and speculating about exactly what ‘Atlas’ is and when we’ll finally see it actually come […]
Over the past two weeks while I was away in Germany, I had the opportunity to visit lots of places and take a staggering amount of photos all along the way. It seemed like everywhere I went I was presented with yet another photo-worthy scene. I loved every second of it, but my phone’s battery […]
The mid-level on top-tier Pixelbooks have enjoyed a healthy discount of around $250 for the past few weeks while the base model has floated around $899 at any given retailer. Now that the Father’s Day weekend is over, so are the discounts from the Google Store, Best Buy and other authorized retailers but there’s still […]
Oh, Geekbench. In the past year or so, this benchmark software (and more importantly, its published results) has been the revelator of many new Chromebooks and hidden specs, unveiling new information we simply would never have gleaned from the Chromium Repositories alone.
This is it! The moment we’ve prepared our entire lives for and I couldn’t be more excited to share. If you have been struggling to decide which Chromebook to buy for around $500, Best Buy may have just sealed the deal with this excellent condition, open-box Pixelbook sale. You can score the one and only, […]
Google’s Chromebook hardware has been pretty straightforward since the inception of the Chrome OS. With their first entry into the fold with the Chromebook Pixel followed by the 2015 version of that device, the Pixelbook, and finally the Pixel Slate, Google hasn’t veered too far from their original plan with their in-house Chromebooks.
