The journey of the Acer Chromebook Spin 13 has been a slightly odd one. Way back in May, we were up in New York where Acer debuted the device on stage and had units on hand for us to actually use. They were buggy and barely working, but the hardware seemed pretty close to finished. When they let … [Read more...] about Acer Chromebook Spin 13 Review: Performance at a Premium

Samsung Chromebook Plus V2 Review
Do you like comparing things? I do. We all do, if we're being honest. And that predisposition caused us to take a bit longer on this review than we normally do. In fact, we actually shot the entire review twice because of it. Look, I like a before and after, this vs. that just as much as the next … [Read more...] about Samsung Chromebook Plus V2 Review
HP Chromebook x2 Review: The World’s First Detachable Chromebook
In a landscape dominated by convertibles and clamshells, the HP Chromebook x2 arrives on the scene with a bold, distinctive and important claim: the world's first detachable Chromebook.

We've known for some time the day would come where we would review the world's first Chrome OS-powered tablet.

For most products, most of the time, we unbox them when they show up at the office, spend some time with them, and then create a review.

ASUS Chromebook Flip C101 Review
Oh how a couple years changes things. Just over two years ago, Chrome Unboxed (as a website news outlet) didn't exist, our videos were simple cellphone-on-a-tripod shots, and the landscape of Chromebooks was much, much different. For instance, The ASUS Chromebook Flip C100 came on the scene as … [Read more...] about ASUS Chromebook Flip C101 Review
Google Pixelbook Review: More Than Just An Expensive Chromebook
Who is the Pixelbook for? We've heard that question quite a bit since the very first leak back in September before Google's big hardware event.
