Chrome Unboxed - The Latest Chrome OS News
A Space for All Things Chrome, Google, and More!
One of the primary focuses here at Chrome Unboxed is future hardware. After all, our early days were all about new devices! What is coming feels just as important as what is here now, so we will continue looking for the latest and greatest developments in the Chrome OS ecosystem.
From time to time, it is useful to get your thoughts in one place. As we continue to track new baseboards and upcoming Chrome OS devices on a daily basis, it can become a bit confusing for us as writers and for you as readers exactly which board is expected to do what. A few […]
When we first laid eyes on the Lenovo Flex 5 Chromebook in Las Vegas back in January at CES 2020, it was so easy for it to get pushed aside in favor of the more-flashy, more attention-grabbing devices like the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook, ASUS Chromebook Flip C436, and the surprisingly-affordable Chromebook Duet. It’s rare that […]
There’s been a ton of hype around the Lenovo Chromebook Duet and its all for good reason. We’ve not had a solid Chromebook tablet in this small form factor at this sort of price in the history of Chrome OS. The interest has been strong since the debut of this tablet since January and, according […]
Now that we are in the part of the year where we are finally starting to see some of the new Chromebooks emerge onto the scene, it is time to really begin casting our gaze towards what is next. We’ve outlined it a few times here, but when it comes to the future of Chrome […]
Roughly one month ago, a mysterious new Acer Chromebook Spin 13 was spotted on a handful of European websites but up unto this point, the 10th Gen Comet Lake device hasn’t been made official. Today, I received an email from a reader tipping me off to a new listing for the Chromebook on Acer’s US […]
I figured today or tomorrow would be the day that the coveted Lenovo Chromebook Duet would start to actually ship to customers. We’ve been alerted by a reader that their Best Buy order that was placed on April 29th has officially been marked as shipped even though there is no apparent tracking info to go […]
The pre-launch saga of the Lenovo Chromebook Duet is coming to an end soon, but for some early buyers, it looks like it will be sooner than the rest of us. If you don’t recall, the Chromebook Duet went up for pre-order at Best Buy last week on April 29th and came with a few […]
Over the past couple months, the upcoming Lenovo Flex 5 Chromebook we got our hands on at CES 2020 has shown up here and there. It was available for pre-order for a short time at Amazon in a few configurations, but the pre-order status didn’t last very long. The listings are still there, but there’s […]
Last week we reported that HP was ready to announce a few new Chrome OS devices and while we’ve been privy to them since late last week, we were finally able to share a bit about these three new Chromebooks with you all this morning. From a very-affordable HP Chromebook 14 G6, to the mid-range […]
HP has returned with its next series of Enterprise-focused Chrome OS devices and this time, the company has set its sights on the varying needs employees based on their unique work “lifestyles.” During the virtual press event, the HP team joined up with Google’s VP of Chrome OS John Solomon to show off HP’s latest […]
For nearly as long as the Chromecast has been around, there have been questions about the need or availability of a remote. As casting from a device slowly became a more normalized activity, many of us simply moved past the notion that our video source required a remote to go along with it. After all, […]
I warned about this possibility in the post yesterday, but it seems the pre-order status of the Lenovo Chromebook Duet has already shifted to a “coming soon” status. If you search for the device on Best Buy’s website, you’ll still see the option to pre-order in the search result, but clicking that button only gives […]
