Today’s Google I/O 2023 keynote was pretty heavy on the AI just as we assumed it would be. Google needs to save some face after being caught off guard a bit when OpenAI and ChatGPT turned the tech world on its head late in 2022. It was a long, somewhat-excruciating wait for the hardware portion…

Now that Google I/O 2023 is in the books, we can share a few thoughts on the Pixel 7a. While I am bursting with anticipation about the Pixel Fold finally getting in my hands in the coming weeks, the Pixel 7a is a surprisingly capable phone from Google at a pretty aggressive price point. We’ll…

In contrast to Coca Cola’s classic design, many tech giants, including Google, often change logos mure more frequently. Over the past decade, Google’s app logos have undergone several transformations, especially as it’s has implemented flat design and Material You.

Dell seems to be content staying out of the consumer Chromebook market. A fact that seems very odd to me given the recent expansion of premium consumer-facing devices from nearly every major OEM out there. I say nearly because no one appears to know what’s going on with Samsung but that’s another story. That said,…

In all of our excitement surrounding ‘Geralt’ – the MediaTek MT8188-based Chromebook tablet development board – I completely missed the beginnings of yet another tablet-based ChromeOS device right under my nose. Code named ‘Starmie’, this new Chromebook development board is clearly a detachable, is coming with MediaTek’s newer entry-level Kompanio 520 inside, and from the…

It’s I/O week and while we’re focused on Google’s next Pixel phone lineup, I wouldn’t want you to miss out on the best Chromebook deals of the week. This week, there are some oldies but goodies and a new kid on the block. All of which offer up some serious savings and will get you…

Of all the aggravations that I have with any smartwatch I’ve used, the lacking presence of WhatsApp on my wrist is chief among my complaints. Yes, I can get WhatsApp notifications on WearOS as long as my phone is near, but the minute Bluetooth is off or my phone isn’t within range, those notifications are…

Not everyone is interested in all of the suggestion tiles and recommendations that Google TV provides, especially as it’s become increasingly more spammy and full of advertisements, even for physical products.
