It feels like we've been talking about better Bluetooth, improved Bluetooth, or fixing Bluetooth on Chromebooks for far too long. We have our suspicions that Bluetooth is going to get a major fix in the form of Bluetooth 5.0 in future Chromebooks as we've previously reported.

Upcoming ‘Hatch’ Chromebooks to get LTE support
We haven't talked about the 'Hatch' family of Chromebooks that much in the past few weeks.

New Chromebook ‘Kled’ Shows Up To Join The Expanding ‘Hatch’ Family
I don't know about you, but I really enjoy the name Hatch Family. There's just a nice ring to it. Last year's unibuild family name 'Nami' never really caught on as we were all a bit too focused on 'Nocturne' becoming what we now know as the Pixel Slate. Though Gabriel always had a hunch that … [Read more...] about New Chromebook ‘Kled’ Shows Up To Join The Expanding ‘Hatch’ Family

In the history of Chromebook devices since the original Samsung Chromebook Plus launched, there have been a few Chromebooks that leveraged a screen similar to what we see on the Pixelbook.

New Chromebook ‘Hatch’ Getting Stowable Stylus, Backlit Keyboard

Upcoming Chromebook ‘Hatch’ Getting A Fingerprint Scanner
After seeing the new Acer Chromebook 714 and 715 at Acer's event this week, we can finally use the plural Chromebooks when talking about Chrome OS devices with fingerprint scanners.

Will we ever see something like a Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Ultra?
The year was 2020; January 2020 to be specific. We were out in the desert at CES 2020 in Las Vegas, and the star of the show (not just from our perspective) was the wildly-ambitious new Galaxy Chromebook from Samsung. With its crazy-thin form factor, 4K OLED screen, high-end internals, included, … [Read more...] about Will we ever see something like a Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Ultra?

Peridot is an upcoming real-world AR (augmented reality) adventure pet game where you care for creatures that feel like a cross between Pokemon and Pikmin, raise them to adulthood (instead of evolving, I guess), and explore the real world together. The goal of the game is to re-diversify the Peridot … [Read more...] about Niantic wants to mix Pokémon Go with Pikmin Bloom to maximize the cuteness with Peridot
