After expanding our reach, we still remain dedicated to offering timely and thorough reviews of the latest Chrome OS devices. Here you'll find a review of every piece of Chrome OS hardware we've been able to get our hands on.

Premium Chromebooks took a bit of a hit in 2020. As mid-range Chromebooks got a lot better over the course of the year (the Acer Spin 713 is a prime example of this), we started seeing features in $500-$600 Chromebooks that we used to reserve for only the high-end flagship devices.

I recently introduced you to Unclouded, a cloud storage cleaning app on the Google Play Store that could kick off your new year by helping you understand how your cloud storage was being used – or misused. However, as many of you pointed out in the comments section of that article, there was a better, […]

I have found myself in a place where, after forty years, I am suddenly a fan of fine timepieces. I don’t know exactly why it happened but I do know when. I was in Newport on vacation with the family and I happened across a watch that turned my head. It was then and there […]

Well, we made it. 2020 is coming to a close and it’s that time of year where we name our favorite Chromebooks for the last 12 months. There have been some great ones and there have been some misses, too. All told, our lineup doesn’t look drastically different here at the end of the year […]

When you gaze upon the hardware of the new Chromecast with Google TV (Chromecast from here on out in this review) it is easy to see the basic influence of its predecessors. A circular-ish dongle with an HDMI cable protruding from one end and a spot for power in the other. As a matter of […]

In the home speaker segment, Google has really found a solid niche that has served to bring the Google Assistant into millions of homes in a simple, affordable way.
