The first thing you will notice when updating your Chrome OS operating system to the Beta version, which we need to mention now that it’s unstable, thus not suitable for production machines, is the awesome Material Design implemented in the Files App. Google assures users that more apps will get the Material Design makeover in future updates. Other new features include a new Google Launcher with Google Now support, timezone autoupdate, and support for password-protected ZIP files.
