New Daily Digest From CHROME UNBOXED

View this email in your browser You can now add your favorite podcasts to YouTube Music via RSS feeds Just as I predicted, Google decided to shutter its podcasting service in favor of its new favorite child, YouTube Music. At the time this was announced, many who relied solely on the RSS import feature of Podcasts for the listening experiences that weren’t on Google’s platform were pretty perturbed that this wasn’t possible on YTM. […] Read More Why Google needs to add Chromebook Plus to listings for those that meet the criteria Contents For a bit over a month, we’ve talked a lot about Chromebook Plus. While I love what Google is doing with this new campaign, it’s not without its difficulties right now. Chief among those problems is branding for devices that are Chromebook Plus certified through-and-through, but don’t have anything consumer-facing to let people know […] Read More Google tried to get Fortnite on the Google Play Store for $147 million If you’re a gamer or at all interested in Fortnite, then you’ll be no stranger to the fact that Google has had an ongoing battle with Epic Games to get the popular title on the Google Play Store so that Chromebook and Android users can enjoy it. Today, it’s been discovered by The Verge that […] Read More The Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 drops to its lowest-ever price once again Not to be outdone by all the fuss over Chromebook Plus, the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 has once again dropped to its lowest-ever price of just $329, down a full $170 once again from its MSRP. We saw a deal like this just about a month ago, and from what we could tell at that […] Read More Google Chat rolls out its new logo and 'Home' tab, making it easier to find everything but the app As with all Google updates, they take about six months to a year to materialize after being announced. The same can be said of Google Chat’s new four-colored Workspace-oriented logo and revamped homepage. Luckily, today is the day I can officially announce they’re going live. Let’s take a look at everything the company discussed on […] Read More The new Fitbit Charge 6 is pretty great, just not for me I was pretty excited for the Fitbit Charge 6. I even wrote a post about why I thought it would be the watch for me when it launched and when it did arrive, I chose it over the Pixel Watch 2 as the new Google wearable that would be on my wrist. And though I […] Read More Chrome is working to let you easily reinstall all of your web apps on a new device upon setup Ever found yourself switching to a new phone and missing all those web apps you had installed since they were more convenient or readily available than apps? Google apparently knows the struggle and seems to be cooking up a solution that could make transitioning your web applications or ‘PWA’s to a new device a breeze. […] Read More The Acer Spin 714 is $130 off and Chromebook Plus through-and-through I won’t go on a diatribe about Chromebook Plus branding right now (I did that already today), but it’s a real shame that devices as fantastic as the Acer Chromebook Spin 714 aren’t publicly labeled as Chromebook Plus right now. Sure, devices like this one will never get the new logo on the lid, but […] Read More There's a small chance Snapdragon X Elite Chromebooks could become reality Contents Not long ago, we reported on the removal of all development on the once-upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 Chromebooks. Though we were tracking a handful of these devices in development for quite some time, they all were abandoned and there’s been no real movement in the Chromium Repositories on the Qualcomm front ever […] Read More StarTech's USB-C Docking Station gives me the 3 monitor Chromebook desktop I've been begging for Contents Anyone who knows me will know that while I missed the Chromebox boom and craze, I’m addicted to the idea of daily driving my Chromebook as a desktop workstation. It can’t run Unreal Engine 5 just yet, and may not for quite a while, but I can do pretty much everything else on it […] Read More Join our Patreon community and get access to things like behind-the-scenes footage, early access to videos, private Discord server access, an ad-free experience on the mobile and desktop versions of the website, your name listed on all our YouTube videos, and monthly live stream Q&A.
