Futureproof Processing
Low power usage and responsive software are provided by the latest Intel® processor. The extra performance makes highly graphical classroom projects run smoother so tasks are performed quicker.

Effortless Mobility
Designed for portable convenience, this Chromebook™ is smaller than a sheet of A4 paper and weighs just around 1 kg. Slide it in to small bags and take it out when you need it.

All-day Battery Life
10 hours1 of battery life goes a long way. With just a single charge, get in a full day’s work with time to spare. The powerful long lasting battery means you don’t have to take the power adapter with you.

The Power of Wireless
A strong, consistent wireless signal is provided by Intel® Gigabit Wi-Fi and the strategically placed Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) wireless antenna with 2x2 MU-MIMO. MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output) is a standard that offers faster wireless speeds and can handle more wireless devices at once.

Gigabit Wi-Fi
Gigabit Wi-Fi 2x2 802.11ac 160 MHz (1,733 Mbps) delivers up to twelve times2 faster than 802.11n.

Wi-Fi 5 ( 802.11ac)
802.11ac delivers speeds from 433 Mbps (megabits per second) up to several gigabits per second and uses either 80 or 160MHz.

MU-MIMO
MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output) is a standard that offers faster wireless speeds and can handle more wireless devices at once.

Flexible Connectivity
Two USB Type-C ports for ultra-quick data transfer, video streaming, and battery charging. The reversible USB 3.1 Type-C™ connector is the same at both ends and on both sides, so it’s easy to attach. USB 3.1 is 10 times faster than USB 2.0. In addition to the two USB 3.1 Type-C ports, there are also two USB 3.0 Type A ports, and a microSD slot for extra

Stay Productive
Fast boot times, ease of use, tough security and a long battery life are some of the advantages of ChromeOS. With a boot time of about 8 seconds you’ll start working quicker; the simplified interface makes it easy to learn; integrated malware protection stops viruses in their tracks; and finally an efficient use of power means you can work all day without your power adapter.
