Why We Didn't Go To CES 2024

Plus more ChromeOS Material You updates

View this email in your browser The Chrome Cast 253: some thoughts on CES 2024 This week on The Chrome Cast podcast, we take a look at CES 2024 and explain a bit about why we weren't in attendance, why not many Chromebook announcements were made there, and what about the show stood out this week as coverage from other outlets flooded our news feeds. It's a fun show that gives us a chance to spend a lot of our time talking about the new Chromebooks from ASUS and a bit about some fun tech that showed up in Las Vegas this year. Listen to the show and see the links here.

Check out the Material You overhaul in the ChromeOS settings app ChromeOS still has a few holdout areas where the latest Material You look and feel hasn't quite made its mark. While the Files app was upgraded to the latest UI when Material You made it to ChromeOS, one other, primary system app still maintained the older look from non-Material ChromeOS: the Settings App.  Sure, the color-changing, theme-matching tricks showed up with Material You, but the overall aesthetic simply doesn't yet match things like Quick Settings, Chrome's new look, and what you see in the app drawer. But that's all about to change.
