Chell
The Chell baseboard supported a lineup of mid- to upper-tier Chromebooks that showcased ChromeOS’s growing maturity as a productivity platform. Built on the x86_64 architecture, Chell-based devices typically offered stronger processors, improved displays, and better build quality than the budget-focused entries of its era. These systems were designed to balance performance, efficiency, and portability, making them suitable for students, professionals, and power users who needed reliable hardware for web applications, Linux tools, and Android apps.
With an Auto Update Expiration (AUE) date of June 1, 2023, Chell devices have recently reached the end of their official support lifecycle. Although they remain capable for lightweight productivity and browsing, modern workloads and evolving software demands may expose their age. Users interested in extending the lifespan of Chell devices might explore Linux distributions or ChromiumOS variants, but for those seeking long-term performance and full ChromeOS support, newer baseboard platforms offer a more future-ready experience.
