- 2016, Mike Meyers, CompTIA A+ Certification All-in-One Exam Guide:
- Technically a Chromebook is just a portable computer running Google's Linux-based Chrome OS, but the majority of Chromebooks are light, inexpensive, relatively modest in computing power and storage, and on the small end of the laptop spectrum.

- 2019 February 4, Brad Linder, “Chromebases are still a thing”, in Liliputing:
- Chrome OS tablets may be the new hotness, but the vast majority of devices that have shipped with Google’s Chrome operating system over the years have been laptops… also known as Chromebooks. But a few years ago we also saw the introduction of a few other categories including Chromeboxes (mini desktop computers), Chromebits (PC-on-a-stick devices), and Chromebases (all-in-one, iMac-like desktops).

- "Chromebooks, Chromebases, and Chromeboxes automatically manage updates to ensure your device always has the latest software and security features," said Google.
