Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
This is where it all began for Chrome Unboxed. Years ago, we existed simply as a Chrome OS device review channel on YouTube. 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.

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 […]
Have you ever tried to use your Chromebook for note-taking with a stylus? Some devices are more suited to the task than others, with the Lenovo Chromebook Duet being the best, in my opinion. There are a lot of pen-enabled apps that you can use, but which ones are truly the best? Today, we’re going […]

As we near the holiday shopping season and lots of electronics start plummeting in price, we thought it a good time to get our hands on the new Lenovo Smart Clock Essential as it is becoming available for as little as $25 as of the writing of this post. For that small asking price, the […]
![Chromecast with Google TV review: the Chromecast for everyone [VIDEO]](https://chromeunboxed.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/ChromecastWithGoogleTVreview.jpg)
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. Starting with the slightly-odd Google Home that began the Google-made smart speaker effort, Google has continued to hone and perfect its speaker offerings each year since. […]
There was a time when all I cared about in a Chromebook was having the latest CPU, most RAM available and a good display. Since I spend a lot of time testing out new features and experimenting with Linux apps and VMs, I like to have the maximum amount of horsepower available at my fingertips. […]
A Pressure Sensitive Lifestyle As an artist, the moment I saw the Pixel Slate hit the marketplace, I eagerly bought it. No longer would I need to boot up my Windows PC, grab my Wacom tablet, plug it in and try to locate my missing stylus in order to begin drawing. No longer would I […]
One of the most charming parts of the Chromebook story over the years has been the ability to go and snag a sub-$300 laptop that can actually get some things done. Though low-end Chromebooks are generally not great at most parts of the laptop experience, they are usually passable. Decent. OK. The one part of […]
We do our best to get our hands on all varieties of Chrome OS devices in the hopes that we can help our readers make the best buying decisions based on personal need and equally important, budget. That said, it’s not often that we get a chance to take a look at a Chromebook that […]
The HP Chromebook x360 14c is a solid offering from HP that takes the formula from its 18-month-old predecessor and improves on it in nearly every way. Just like that earlier iteration of the x360 14, this latest version delivers a great overall Chromebook experience and does so while getting pretty aggressive price reductions along […]
The minute I begin to talk about Chromebooks with things like bright high-res displays, 3:2 aspect ratios, glass trackpads, Core i5 processors, 8GB of RAM, NVMe storage, aluminum build and convertible form factors, I’m sure your mind starts tallying up the price tag of those nicer elements. I know mine does. When Chromebooks have nearly […]
![Why I Ditched My Google Pixel Buds for the Apple AirPods Pro [VIDEO]](https://chromeunboxed.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/AirpodsPro.jpg)
For reasons that go deeper than I care to get into, that title was a tad bit hard to write. I don’t hate Apple. On the contrary, I actually appreciate a lot about Apple’s hardware on a regular basis. I know, for instance, that they are responsible for the smartphone as we know it. They […]
