With this year’s Chromebook 11, Dell is building on the success of last year’s model, which bears the same name, by continuing to target the educational market. Although both generations of Chromebook share the same name, Dell has completely redesigned this year’s model to be more durable for the classroom.
Starting at just $249.99 (£164, AU$327), this year’s Chromebook 11 follows the design of last year’s Latitude 13 with a barrel hinge, rubberized edges to help shield against bumps, and a spill-proof keyboard to protect against accidental water damage. Dell claims that the Chromebook’s durable design passed 15 mil spec tests for drops, spills, vibrations, humidity, heat, and dirt, making it a perfect fit for the classroom and for science labs.
In the educational space, Dell’s 11.6-inch Chromebook will compete against the $279 (£181 or AU$360) Acer C740 and the $300 (£194 or AU$387) C910, with both Acer education-centric offerings sporting larger displays at 13.3 and 15.6 inches respectively.
