|
|
Premium, High-Powered Performance
The Samsung Chromebook 2 utilizes an Intel Celeron (N2840)
processor, with speeds up to 2.58GHz and a 1 MB L2 cache,
providing fast performance and energy efficiency. With an overall
system memory of 2GB, eMMc technology and a storage capacity of
16GB, the Chromebook 2 provides ample space for all of a user's
needs.
Images and videos come alive on the laptop's 11.6-inch, HD
(1366x768) display. High-powered speakers, along with enhanced low
range round and high definition audio, make it even easier to
enjoy crisp, clear multimedia on the Chromebook 2.
For maximum on-the-go connectivity, the Chromebook 2 offers up to
nine hours of battery life, so users can stay powered all day
without needing to seek out a power source.
Brilliant (News - Alert) Screen Quality
In addition to HD resolution, the Chromebook 2 features
anti-reflective technology resulting in a display that looks great
in any light, both indoors and out. The 1366x768 resolution
provides high quality images on the laptop's LED screen. To
complement the advanced visuals, the Chromebook 2 also includes
enhanced sound and camera features, with two 2 watt speakers, an
internal microphone and a 720p HD web camera certified for
exceptional use with Google (News - Alert) Hangouts.
Striking Design
Weighing just 2.6 pounds and measuring half an inch thin, the
Chromebook 2 can effortlessly be carried anywhere. The build is
nearly seamless, supported by a strong metal frame from top to
bottom and covered with a leather-like case, giving the Chromebook
2 the look of an expensive briefcase. In addition to adding a
premium design, this material adds functionality by making the
device easier to grip and hold - especially important for students
and children.
The Samsung Chromebook 2 is equally impressive once the lid is
open. It features an ergonomically designed keyboard with curved
keys, resulting in a more comfortable, faster typing experience.
