Chromebox

Lenovo has announced its first Chromebox to boast a micro form factor. Coming in at about the same size as two stacked iPhone 15 Pro Max handsets, it's has been designed for 24/7 operation in digital signage and kiosk displays.

Though notebook-like devices tend to get most of the attention in the Chrome OS space, mini computers are also available where space is a premium. The latest Chromebox from Asus should also be a quiet runner thanks to its fanless design.

Acer's latest Chromebox, the CX1 Series, offers solid specs, good connectivity and is designed to feel right at home in small offices, schools and colleges.
