Rosie Grace: Lenovo has launched a $219 Chromebook

The annual World Mobile Communications Congress trade show is not just a smartphone, although this was the case in the recent past. This is also about tablets and laptops. As long as the product is smart, portable and in line with our mobile lifestyle, the product is welcome at MWC.

In the past few years, Lenovo has introduced new Lenovo and Motorola branded smartphones, as well as new tablets and new laptops. However, this year Lenovo only focuses on laptops for various computers - we will have to wait for new Lenovo smartphones and tablets. Do not despair because Lenovo still has some impressive equipment at the MWC2018 show. In fact, one of the new Lenovo computers costs just $ 219 and may suffer serious damage.

The Lenovo 100e Chromebook is not a big hitter like Pixelbook, but it does not cost more than $ 1,000. Instead, the purpose of a laptop is to be a device that can cope with the confusion in the classroom. 100e is likely to be your first computer to buy your child because it knows it will not be easily destroyed. It features a sturdy design, reinforced ports and hinges, and spill-resistant keyboard that can withstand drops up to 2.5 feet.

Specifically, the 100e Chromebook features a 11.6-inch high-definition anti-glare display with 1366 x 768 resolution, an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, and a range of ports, including USB-C and microSD readers. This is not the most complicated Chromebook, but at $219 you will get a very rugged PC. Laptops were launched in various markets in March.

If you want to spend more on similar rugged Chromebooks, you should look at 300e and 500e, retailing for $279 and $349, respectively. They have more than 100e advantages, including multi-mode appearance. They also have those beautiful association hinges that allow you to switch between laptop mode and tablet mode as well as touch support.

This is an enhanced touch on the 300e, allowing you to write using any type of stylus, whether it's a regular pencil or an actual stylus.

The 500e actually packs its stylus and comes with Google's stylus technology. There are few obvious delays in writing and sketching, and it really is impressive from my brief experience with the 500e. Just press the stylus on the display and it will respond immediately. If there is any lag between thought and action, I do not notice it. Lenovo said Google uses machine learning techniques and algorithms to predict the direction of the pen, thus eliminating lag.

Both the 300e and 500e have 11.6-inch HD monitors and some ports, including USB-C, USB-3.0 and HDMI (on the 300e). They even have side volume rockers. The 300e Chromebook chipset and integrated graphics come from MediaTek, while laptops contain 4GB of memory and 32GB of storage. At the same time, the 500e has Intel Celeron and Intel graphics cards, up to 8GB of memory and up to 64GB of storage.
