Stadia has just rolled over the one month mark since launch, and in that time, many things have been corrected, added, and cleaned up. More games have arrived, more of the initial, promised features have shown up, and the early wrinkles have already started ironing themselves out.

Why you should buy the Google Nest Mini instead of the Home Mini every time [VIDEO]
Back in October at Google's Hardware event, one of the new pieces of hardware was a discrete, modest, but very meaningful update to the cheapest in-home device in Google's lineup: the Google Home Mini. That device is single-handedly responsible for the ingress of the Google Assistant into countless … [Read more...] about Why you should buy the Google Nest Mini instead of the Home Mini every time [VIDEO]
Why Razer’s new wireless earbuds replaced AirPods in my pocket [VIDEO]
Over the past year or so, I've somehow turned my buying/returning attention to headphones. Without realizing it, I noticed 4 sets of wireless earbuds on my shelf and I thought to myself, "How did this happen?" I suppose it applies to nearly anything with me, but I'm always in search of that one … [Read more...] about Why Razer’s new wireless earbuds replaced AirPods in my pocket [VIDEO]
This is the best 15-inch Chromebook for your money [VIDEO]
I've said it again and again: price informs our opinions of a device. When there are multiple decent options, the more affordable one tends to be favored over the others. Regardless of whether you are a deal seeker or just a general shopper, everyone loves a great deal. Though this 15-inch … [Read more...] about This is the best 15-inch Chromebook for your money [VIDEO]
Thoughts after a day using Stadia on Chromecast, Chromebook, and Pixel 4 XL [VIDEO]
After a bit of a hiccup in the official launch of Stadia, I was up and running with my Founders Edition setup by about 5pm and spent a good portion of the next 24 hours testing Stadia in all its forms. From using the Chromecast on a big TV to using Stadia in a Chrome browser to playing on my Pixel … [Read more...] about Thoughts after a day using Stadia on Chromecast, Chromebook, and Pixel 4 XL [VIDEO]
Dell’s Latitude Chromebook Enterprise devices are great, but probably not for you [VIDEO]
Two new devices from Dell have put me in probably the oddest position I've ever been in as a reviewer of tech devices. For the first time ever, I'm forced to tell general consumers across the board that a device isn't a good fit for them. The strange part is these Chromebooks aren't bad and aren't … [Read more...] about Dell’s Latitude Chromebook Enterprise devices are great, but probably not for you [VIDEO]
Pixelbook Go Review
I'm going to be clear and right to the point from the start: I really love this Chromebook. I love the decisions Google made with it, I love all the parts it gets so, so right, and I love using it on a very regular basis. After spending the proper amount of time with it on a daily basis, it is so … [Read more...] about Pixelbook Go Review
What brought me back to the Pixel 4 XL [VIDEO]
There's a reason I titled my last article about the Pixel 4 'Why I haven't bought the Pixel 4 yet.' I know myself. I know how I am with tech, and I know how quickly my mind can be persuaded and changed. Knowing these things, I knew better than to be 100% definitive in my dismissal of Google's … [Read more...] about What brought me back to the Pixel 4 XL [VIDEO]
ASUS Chromebook Flip C433 Review
If I were to use just one word to describe ASUS' latest Chromebook, that word would be interesting. The way it showed up in Bluetooth listings without us having any prior knowledge of it was interesting. The official announcement that it was to launch in the UK first was interesting. The low-key, … [Read more...] about ASUS Chromebook Flip C433 Review
Opinion: Why I haven’t bought the Pixel 4 yet [VIDEO]
As I type this opening sentence on the surprisingly-great Pixelbook Go, I'm subtly reminded of what makes a great piece of hardware. The sweet spot sits somewhere between a finely crafted physical thing that is pleasing to look at, hold or touch and the way that thing goes about getting you to the … [Read more...] about Opinion: Why I haven’t bought the Pixel 4 yet [VIDEO]
3 things I love about Pixelbook Go after 1 week [VIDEO]
Just a couple days after Google's hardware event in New York wrapped up last week, our very own Pixelbook Go showed up in the office and I've been using it off and on ever since. As timing would have it, I'm in the middle of 3 other reviews right now, so I'm splitting time between quite a few … [Read more...] about 3 things I love about Pixelbook Go after 1 week [VIDEO]
ASUS Chromebook C425 Review
We're getting to the point with Chromebooks where there are so many new ones hitting the market that new models simply pop up out of nowhere and are on sale before we even know they exist. That's the case for the ASUS C425 as it simply appeared a few weeks ago in an Amazon listing without as much … [Read more...] about ASUS Chromebook C425 Review
