There are a few new Chromebooks I really hope to see this fall
Now that there's an official Chromebook showcase on the books for September 24th, I figured it's time I shared my hopes for the fall and Chromebook hardware in general. You see, these new events put on directly by Google (one last fall, one in May of this year, and now this third iteration in a … [Read more...] about There are a few new Chromebooks I really hope to see this fall
I’m a big Chromebook guy now, and Samsung’s new Galaxy Chromebook Plus may just be perfect
I've realized something about myself lately: I'm a big Chromebook guy. I don't mean I'm a fan of Chromebooks (I clearly am and have been for some time); instead, I mean I've grown to love and appreciate a larger screen on my ChromeOS devices. Maybe it's me getting older; maybe it's me being a bit … [Read more...] about I’m a big Chromebook guy now, and Samsung’s new Galaxy Chromebook Plus may just be perfect

Using the Pixel 9 Pro XL makes me wish it had a ChromeOS desktop mode
I've been unashamedly rocking a Samsung phone for the past few years. I first moved to the Galaxy S23 Ultra and then leveraged a killer deal to snag the Z Fold 5 as well. Between the two, I've been pretty happy - if a tad bit uninspired - with the phone in my pocket for the past 20 months or … [Read more...] about Using the Pixel 9 Pro XL makes me wish it had a ChromeOS desktop mode
It’s official: a new Lenovo Chromebook Duet is coming soon
Yep, you are reading that right! After months of heavy speculation and detective work, the new Chromebook tablet from Lenovo is now out in the open for all to see. Sure, it's still a tad bit hidden and only viewable if you know where to look (we got a heads-up from a reader), but the name of it is … [Read more...] about It’s official: a new Lenovo Chromebook Duet is coming soon
Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus will likely come in two configurations
As we inch ever closer to fall, the anticipation for new Chromebooks only continues to grow. Sure, we got new hardware in the spring at Google's Chromebook event in New York, but as we've seen, those devices were largely iterative in nature. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing iteration in the … [Read more...] about Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus will likely come in two configurations
Why the ASUS CX54 Chromebook Plus being on Best Buy shelves is a big deal
For years and years I've talked about the concept of a halo device for the Chromebook ecosystem: a device that shines the way for all the rest, showcasing the best of the best. While it may not be the top seller, it inspires buyers to purchase something similar. This concept is not new, has been … [Read more...] about Why the ASUS CX54 Chromebook Plus being on Best Buy shelves is a big deal
This fall should be awesome for new Chromebook hardware
With Google's new update cycle for Chromebook releases beginning to take shape here in 2024, it feels like we're likely going to see new hardware a couple times a year at this point. Where older cycles had new Chromebooks launching at any point throughout the year, we've settled into a new rhythm … [Read more...] about This fall should be awesome for new Chromebook hardware
This 8GB Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 deal matches its lowest-ever price
While we are very, very excited about this fall's potential for new Chromebook hardware (including at least one, new, more-powerful tablet), that doesn't mean the current crop of Chromebooks isn't worth your consideration. Quite the contrary, actually, as we continue to see more and more great … [Read more...] about This 8GB Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 deal matches its lowest-ever price
Great Pixel Buds Pro and Pixel Watch 2 deals are still going
Alas, Prime Day and all the deal events that encircle it are now in the rear-view mirror. But that doesn't mean all the deals across the web simply dried up in the wake of those events. In fact, just yesterday, we updated our regular Chromebook deals post with tons of great discounts on all sorts … [Read more...] about Great Pixel Buds Pro and Pixel Watch 2 deals are still going
Why CMF (by Nothing) would make a fantastic Chromebook OEM
Yeah, I know Samsung just rolled out a bunch of new hardware today and that is catching a lot of attention at the moment. But I also know the prices for each piece of hardware announced today didn't go down. Instead, they actually went up, and those price increases stand in direct opposition to … [Read more...] about Why CMF (by Nothing) would make a fantastic Chromebook OEM
