Google’s Chromebooks gets 10 years of automatic updates

Geek Staff By Geek Staff September 17, 2023
1 Min Read

Google announced that Chromebooks will now receive automatic software updates for 10 years. Google said that users with Chromebooks released back in 2021 will get 10 years of automatic updates starting in 2024 intended to extend the device’s expiration dates.

Starting in 2024, if you have Chromebooks that were released from 2021 onwards, you’ll automatically get 10 years of updates. For Chromebooks released before 2021 and already in use, users and IT admins will have the option to extend automatic updates to 10 years from the platform’s release (after they receive their last automatic update).

Even if a Chromebook no longer receives automatic updates, it still comes with strong, built-in security features. With Verified Boot, for example, your Chromebook does a self-check every time it starts up. If it detects that the system has been tampered with or corrupted in any way, it will typically repair itself, reverting back to its original state.
