In a move that takes Google’s hardware events right back to the beginning of it all, we are now set to officially hear about the latest from Google on October 4th, 2023 in NYC. Like it was the very first year when Google introduced the world to the first Pixel phone and the Google Assistant, […]

Duet AI for Google Workspace launches, takes notes and even attends meetings on your behalf
In the age of remote work, Google Meet has been a lifeline for many of us. Even if you were more accustomed to Zoom during the pandemic, Meet has cemented its place as a competitor and offers plenty of great features that even Zoom doesn’t have. Now, that’s more true than ever with the launch […]

Remember the good ol’ days when Shazam and Soundhound wowed us with the revolutionary ability to figure out what song you had stuck in your head simply by letting you hum it?

This week on The Chrome Cast, we attempt to begin the show by talking through the two groups of Chromebooks in development that recently got the axe – those powered by the Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 and a couple Chromebooks that were set to have NVIDIA GPUs inside. We divert into some discussion about video […]
Continue ReadingYes, it’s true: NVIDIA GPU Chromebooks are no longer in development
So, yeah; this isn’t the greatest news. While I don’t think this is a cause for great alarm or concern, it definitely isn’t the type of thing you want to hear on the heels of Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 Chromebooks also getting canned last week. Alas, that’s where we are, and I’ve known about it […]

With the first Pixel Watch, the general consensus is that Google did a great job for a first-gen product. The watch is beautiful and – for me, at least – the seamless and user-friendly UI is something I miss on a daily basis now that I’m on a Galaxy Watch 5. As Google tends to […]

The Bullet Journal is a system developed by Ryder Carroll and blends tasks, notes or thoughts, events, and more into one single notebook. It’s an “analog productivity system for the digital age”.

Continue ReadingI moved from the Pixel Fold back to a regular smartphone, and I feel relieved
As I’ve noted in the past, smartphones are largely getting boring. They are utilities that we absolutely rely on and the stuff that was once mind-blowingly innovative has now become commonplace. Folding phones are a bit of a panacea to that stagnation, promising a new era of versatility, convenience and increased consumption abilities. However, after […]
Continue ReadingPixel 8 Pro specs revealed in comprehensive leak
As the year progresses, the anticipation around Google’s upcoming smartphones – the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro – is only heating up. These phones will be the successors to the well-received Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, but Google has obviously been less than forthcoming about what we can expect. That being said, the last […]
Continue Reading3 fantastic Chromebook deals for those who missed last week’s sales events
Last week, we had two huge sales events that sort of captured the attention of many in the tech sphere. Between Amazon Prime Day and Best Buy’s Black Friday in July sales, there was a lot to take in. For us here at Chrome Unboxed, much more of the interest circled around the Chromebook deals […]
