Introducing Chrome OS 80 to The Stable Channel 1 Recommended Answer 0 Replies 2174 Upvotes
Hello Chromebook Community,
You should soon see an update on your device for Chrome OS 80! As part of this new release, here’s a list of new features and changes you’ll notice when you update to this new version of Chrome.
Watch Netflix with Picture-in-Picture
Now, you can watch Netflix “picture-in-picture” with the app available from the Google Play Store. While you shop online or browse the web on Chromebook, you can multitask and enjoy your favorite Netflix show playing in the corner of your screen.
Chromebook Ambient EQ
With Ambient EQ, Chromebook screens adapt to any context—whether you’re working outdoors on a sunny day, or if you’re watching a movie while snuggled under a blanket. Ambient EQ naturally adjusts the white balance and color temperature of your Chromebook’s screen based on your surroundings, which makes the content on screen appear more natural. The screen adjusts automatically, making it easier on your eyes.
With the latest update, the technology for Ambient EQ is ready and will be first available on the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook, which will be available for purchase in the US beginning in April. Look out for other Chromebooks in the future that will get Ambient EQ.
You can also view a list of bugs that were fixed here, and you can find more information on switching to beta or developer versions of Chrome OS here.
As always, please share any feedback you have by using the instructions here, and if you encounter any bugs or issues, please feel free to create a new thread on this forum!
Friendly Reminder: This update will be progressively rolling out over the coming days. Your device may not immediately be eligible for this update.
Best,
Alisha on behalf of the Chrome OS team
