  • What is going on everyone? Leon checkin' in & we are at it again with another video!
    In today's video we will be unboxing and reviewing the rotatable 21.5” HP Chromebase All-In-One touchscreen computer.
    This model comes in multiple variants but the model I have features an Intel Core i3, 16GB RAM and 256GB storage.
    These specs paired with the large display should make this setup great for productivity, media consumption, storage.
    This video is featured on the Chromebook & Chromebase playlist so you can find information related to this topic quickly and easily.
    As for this device, we’ll continue to cover the HP Chromebase in future videos for a more in depth review and tutorials.
    As always, we only feature products or services I buy, use or am interested in.
    You can find the Chromebase and related accessories at the Amazon Storefront link in the description below.

    It's a really amazing product. Honestly, the keyboard is nothing to sleep on. I have a HHKB keyboard, and I have come to like this board more. It has really nice features that you cannot find on any other ChromeOS keyboard.

    I've been waiting for you to share your thoughts. I look forward to hearing more. I did notice the keyboard looks a little small for me, I think I would opt for something larger from a third-party seller.

    • @TechCrackedWeekly
      @TechCrackedWeekly  2 роки тому +1

      The keyboard was messing me up a little at first for that reason. 😅
      I kind of like the size though because it can be tucked away somewhere easily.
      But I also do want some kind of RGB keyboard. 👀

    In landscape mode, is that screen height adjustable? If not, that’s a design flaw.

    • @TechCrackedWeekly
      @TechCrackedWeekly  Рік тому +1

      Hi Jason!
      Thanks for stopping by and asking! That's a great question!
      So in either mode, the display is not height adjustable. I never actually thought of that as a feature, but that would be super neat!
      I had to actually work around that by using a riser and then an electric standing desk, which help.
      But it would be really neat to see a feature like that in more computers like this in the future!

      @TechCrackedWeekly  Рік тому +1

      Hi L Soleil,
      I appreciate your question! Thanks for stopping by and watching!
      I wish I had a clear answer, but I haven't had the opportunity to try those games yet although I took a brief look; they look interesting for sure.
      Hopefully I can provide an answer that does help:
      I am still using the Chromebase. In fact, I'm typing this response on it.
      I am still noticing that some apps still don't go full screen.
      So there is the possibility that these apps will go full screen or will not.
      It's hard to tell without being able to try them. I wish there was a free demo I could test to let you know, but I didn't notice one offered for these games.
      I know this doesn't give you a clear straight forward answer. We do need to see further optimization with Android apps across different devices most certainly and this lack of optimization doesn't give us the best experience on devices like the Chromebase, which is otherwise very beautiful!
      It is a bit of a dissapointment for sure.

      Hi I'm Wolf,
      You can download Android games from the Google Playstore. Performance may vary depending on if the app supports larger displays and can be resized or are supported on ChromeOS.
      You can also use a game streaming service like Stadia or Xbox's Gamepass Ultimate which works very good if you have a good internet connection. :)
