Unboxing/First Impressions
Similar to our reviews section, unboxing Chromebooks and other Chrome OS devices are central to our DNA. It's where our name came from, after all. In this section, you'll find our initial reactions to devices as we pull them out of the box. Sometimes, that's the most telling part of a device review. Be sure to check out the reviews that go with each unboxing.
Microsoft Surface Duo unboxing and hands-on [VIDEO]
Yeah, you read that title right: we have the Microsoft Surface Duo in the house and we’re doing what we do and unboxing it. The reasons I bought this device are various, but the primary factor was the interesting way that Microsoft chose to angle this device as a pocketable computing device that happens to […]
Samsung Chromebook 4+ unboxing and initial impressions [VIDEO]
The Samsung Chromebook 4 and 4+ came out some time ago, announced all the way back in October of last year. The pair was never really on our radar as their internals were simply too mundane at too high a price to ever consider or recommend. For low-end Chromebooks, there have been far too many […]
HP Pro C640 Chromebook unboxing and initial impressions
Without warning, the HP Pro C640 Chromebook Enterprise landed in the office and we’ve decided to go in for a true first impressions unboxing.

As we enter into the beginning of the second half of 2020, new Chromebooks have not stopped arriving. With the pandemic in full swing and economies all over the place, I was honestly unsure what the new device landscape would look like at this point in the year. As a surprise to us all, it […]
The Acer Spin 713 was delivered 48 hours after being announced and it should always be this way
I haven’t fully reviewed the Acer Chromebook Spin 713 in the customary way we normally do because it has only been official as a publicly-announced Chromebook for a little over 3 days at this point. Our hands-on video gets across much of what I’m still feeling about this device and my time with it has […]
Unboxing the $169 Lenovo Chromebook 3: Worth the money?
Lenovo just rolled out a new Chromebook that could potentially throw down the gauntlet for the best budget device on the market. The Lenovo Chromebook 3 popped up on the company’s website this week for the impressively low price of $229 but we discovered an even cheaper model here at our local Walmart. So, we […]
A very unique unboxing video from Chrome Unboxed
If you aren’t aware, YouTube does a very cool thing for content creators when they hit certain milestones. At 100,000 subscribers, creators get a special plaque that commemorates the acheivement and they do the same for 1,000,000 subs and 10,000,000 as well. The plaques are silver followed by gold and then by platinum for the […]
Lenovo Flex 5 Chromebook unboxing and initial impressions
It’s been a full 5 months since I had any time to spend with the Lenovo Flex 5 Chromebook in Las Vegas at CES 2020, and in that time, I’d honestly almost completely forgotten what this Chromebook felt like in the flesh. I wrote a piece last week about my realization that I under-valued the […]

The day is finally here! Nearly 5 months to the day since we first laid eyes on the Lenovo Chromebook Duet, the company has delivered one to our office and we’re taking off the wraps to reacquaint ourselves with the 10-inch Chrome OS tablet.

Today is kinda the day, folks: a device that is very, very similar to the Lenovo Chromebook Duet is in the house and we’re doing an old-fashioned unboxing for you to see.
