Overview



Take advantage of more interactive learning activities with the TravelMate Spin B3’s high performing, ultra-durable design. Featuring a long battery life, mechanically anchored keys, an optional 5 Megapixel HDR world-facing camera, and an optional dockable Wacom AES pen, the Spin B3 empowers students to get even more out of their classes.

Efficient Performance
Get work and tasks done faster than other current on-the-market Windows laptops designed for education. The latest Intel® processor1 combines low power consumption and high performance for a reliable classroom-based solution.

Certified Durability
The Military Standard2 certified impact-resistant design withstands up to 60kg of downward force in addition to increased resistance from daily wear and tear. The shock absorbent bumper and unique drainage design further protects components from moderate falls and amounts of liquid.

Learning With Fun
The convertible design of the laptop ensures that students are able to work together in a multitude of situations, easily adapting to either tablet, tent, or display modes. The optional additions of the dockable Wacom AES pen and the 5 Megapixel HDR world-facing camera further enable increased collaboration between students and flexibility in learning.

Powering Through the Day
With an up to 123 hours of battery life in one charge, finish a day’s worth of classes with battery to spare. The user-friendly port design keeps all your cables on the same side for greater accessibility and ease-of-use while the front-cover battery level indicator allows teachers to quickly and easily tell when a laptop is running out of charge.

Anchored Key Design
Keyboard keys are kept safe from bored and restless children with mechanically anchored keys. These keys are difficult to remove and the entire keyboard is easy to replace, making it ideal for classroom situations where computers are shared among students.

The Power of Wireless
A strong, consistent wireless signal is provided by Intel® Gigabit Wi-Fi and the strategically placed 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.
