The Samsung Galaxy Chromebook is one of the premium Chromebooks you can purchase right now. The Chromebook which was announced at the beginning of the year at CES 2020 is now set for a successor which will arrive as the Galaxy Chromebook2. The info comes from Evan Blass who posted an image on Voice showing the official name of the Chromebook. At the moment, there are no specs and images of the device but they are expected to surface soon seeing as the successor may also launch at CES.
The first-gen Galaxy Chromebook has a
13.3-inch 4K AMOLED touch display. It is powered by Intel’s 10th Gen Core i5
processor and comes with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage. The
Chromebook has a 1MP webcam and another 8MP camera that sits above the keyboard
so you can snap photos when in tablet mode.
The Galaxy Chromebook also has an S Pen
that fits into a slot on the right side. There is also a fingerprint scanner,
stereo speakers, and its keyboard is backlit. It also has two USB-C ports, a
3.5mm microphone and an audio combo jack, and a MicroSD card slot. The
Chromebook doesn’t have LTE but it has Wi-Fi 6.
The Chromebook didn’t go on sale until
April 2020 and with a starting price of $999. We expect the Galaxy Chromebook2
will come with Intel’s 11th gen processor. We also hope Samsung will announce
an LTE version as the original only comes with Wi-Fi connectivity. It will also
be nice to see Samsung bring more color options including the strikingly
gorgeous Fiesta Red of the first-gen model.
