Google introduces Acer Chromebook Spin 11 with rugged body, Wacom stylus and Asus Chromebook C213 for education


Google at the British Education and
Training Technology (BETT) Show in
London introduced Acer
Chromebook Spin 11 (R751T)
and Asus Chromebook C213 for
education. Both these have a 11.6
inch (1366 × 768) touchscreen
display. The Acer Chromebook Spin
11 also has military grade durability
(U.S. MIL-STD 810G compliant)
and comes with a stylus powered by
Wacom EMR (Electro-Magnetic
Resonance) technology.
Google is bringing support for
handwriting recognition to Chrome
OS to support pen input, using
machine learning to improve text
recognition. Apps like Google Keep
will also support optical character
recognition so that you can search
for notes without first converting
handwriting to text.
The Acer Chromebook Spin 11
R751T has two Acer HD wide view
HDR webcams, including a 1MP
camera above the screen and a 5MP
camera above the keyboard, which
can be used in tablet mode.
It comes in two models with Intel
Celeron N3350 dual-core or Celeron
N3450 quad-core processor, 4GB or
8GB of RAM and 32GB to 64GB
eMMC flash storage options. It
has two USB 3.1 Type-C ports, WiFi
802.11ac, Bluetooth 4.2, two USB
Type-A 3.0 ports and a microSD
card slot. Detailed specifications
for Asus Chromebook C213 are not
known yet.
Both the Acer Chromebook Spin 11
and the Asus Chromebook C213 will
be arriving late spring. No details
about the pricing yet.
