Until HP released its popular Chromebase 22 last year, there wasn’t much buzz around ChromeOS AIO (all in one) devices. While Apple has made the iMac for years and there are quite a few options for Windows-based AIO devices (even Microsoft took a swing at the form factor with their first Surface Studio), the ChromeOS […]

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.
An additional high-end Pixel may be coming to join the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro
Google hasn’t been shy about their upcoming Pixel-branded hardware. At Google I/O 2022 – the company’s yearly developer conference – the wraps were taken off of a slew of new devices, including the Pixel 6a, Pixel Buds Pro, Pixel Watch, Pixel Tablet and the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro. For a company still relatively […]

Go ahead and mark me down as not surprised on this one.

Acer took to the virtual stage this morning for the company’s latest global press conference and in the mix, two new Chromebooks that we’re very excited about.

During MWC 2022, we had the chance to get some hands-on time with an early model of the new Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 and it’s not an overstatement to say that we all absolutely loved Lenovo’s newest, smaller tablet. At 11-inches, it’s a great size with a fantastic keyboard/trackpad, bright screen and nice, fast internals. […]
Continue ReadingGoogle resurrects the Pixel Android tablet
Long ago, before ChromeOS tablets were a thing and Samsung wasn’t quite yet poised to own the market, Google produced what was arguably the best Android tablet of the decade.
