Google adds monitors to Works with Chromebook program

Google now also includes screens in its Works with Chromebook program. Manufacturers who have passed the company’s certification are allowed to badge monitors with a Works with Chromebook.

According to 9to5Google, the first monitor to be awarded Works With Chromebook certification is the HP M27fd monitor. This is a 27″ screen with a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. Officially, monitors are not yet on Google’s list of products that have passed such certification, but now Google seems to have started labeling displays in the lee.

Google announced the Works with Chromebook badge early last year. Products can be labeled if they meet the “Chromebook Compatibility Standard” and the label should give consumers the assurance that accessories will work with their Chromebook.

Chargers, cables, mice, keyboards, controllers, webcams, headsets, drawing tablets and docking stations are part of the Works with Chromebook program.
