Yesterday we told you that Lenovo had launched two new Chromebook convertibles, the Lenovo 300e and the Lenovo 500e. Well, these have a little brother named Lenovo 100e. That is an even more economical model, which loses the versatility of convertibles but gains in connectivity. The 11.6-inch screen is excellent. And inside there is an Intel Celeron processor and 4 GB of RAM. We will even have four USB 3.0 ports, two Type A and two other Type C. The Lenovo 100e will reach the US market at the end of January with a price of 220 dollars, about 180 euros.
The Lenovo 100e is a light and robust notebook, designed for the education sector. Also, to withstand all kinds of blows, the equipment includes a rubber bumper, reinforced ports and a 180-degree hinge that does not break under pressure. Also, the Lenovo 100e meets MIL-STD-810G military certification tests. That makes it resistant to falls of up to 75 centimeters in height. That is, it comes prepared for the extreme conditions.
Also, the keyboard includes a sealed touchpad and resists spills of up to 330 milliliters. On the other hand, the keys are mechanically anchored so they can not be ripped off.
The Lenovo 100e includes an 11.6-inch screen with HD resolution of 1,366 x 768 pixels. It also contains anti-glare technology, which reduces student eye fatigue.
Inside this Chromebook, we found an Intel Celeron N3350 processor. It is a dual-core chip with a maximum speed of 2.4 GHz. Accompanying this processor we have 4 GB of LPDDR4 RAM and 32 GB of internal eMMC storage.
As we were doing before, connectivity is one of the strengths of the Lenovo 100e. It has nothing less than four USB 3.0 ports. Two of these ports are Type A, and the other two are Type C. It also has a microSD card slot, which will allow us to expand the storage space efficiently.
Regarding wireless connectivity, it includes Bluetooth 4.1 and 802.11ac dual-band WiFi. Complete the set a battery with the capacity of up to 10 hours, according to the manufacturer.
As we said, the Lenovo 100e will go on sale in the United States at the end of the month. Its price will be 220 dollars, about 180 euros to change.
