Using a Pixelbook in 2024: is it still just as amazing? [VIDEO]
I remember it like it was yesterday: watching Google announce the Pixelbook on stage at the 2nd-ever October hardware event they hosted in San Fransisco.

Continue ReadingThis is the best sub-$300 Chromebook you can buy right now
Chromebook prices dip and change all the time. You know it, I know it, and across the board, we can see $200 price fluctuations in the span of just 24 hours. That means there are a few Chromebooks that – on a semi-regular basis – tend to drop below the $300 barrier. And that puts […]
Continue ReadingWhy you should consider the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 at just $349
I’ll freely admit and stand by my assertion that the Galaxy Chromebook 2 was an odd release by Samsung in 2021 and another Chromebook that they fumbled upon delivery. The reasons are plenty, but for the purposes of this post, I’ll stick with two big ones: features and price. With Chromebooks – perhaps more so […]

Alright, you may not agree with my assertion that the Lenovo Slim 3i Chromebook Plus is the best of the new bunch of branded Chromebook Plus devices, but as I said in our review that just came out recently, this device gets most of the overall equation exceptionally right.
