Samsung Galaxy Chromebook to hit shelves next week in the US

The Galaxy Chromebook, which was unveiled three months ago, will finally hit store shelves next week in the US. You can pick it up for $999 from Best Buy or Samsung’s online store, starting April 6. The South Korean firm’s latest Chrome OS running laptop will be available in Fiesta Red and Mercury Gray.

The laptop is equipped with a 10th Gen. Intel Core i5 10210U processor with quad-core CPU, multi-threading, and 1.6GHz base clock speed. The device uses integrated Intel UHD Graphics. Although the company had indicated that it would be available in additional storage variants and an LTE variant, the Chromebook seems to be available in just one configuration (8GB DDR3 RAM, 256GB NVMe SSD) right now.

The best feature of the Galaxy Chromebook is its 4K Super AMOLED touchscreen. It comes with an S Pen and has a flip-and-fold design. Samsung’s upcoming laptop features 2-watt stereo speakers, 1MP front-facing camera, an 8MP rear-facing camera, a backlit keyboard, and a fingerprint reader. The laptop has a microSD/UFS combo card slot, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.0, and two USB Type-C ports.

It is the first Chrome OS laptop with Google’s Ambient EQ feature. The only other Chromebooks launched at this price point were Google’s Pixel Book and the Pixel Slate (some variants). It needs to be seen if people are willing to spend $1,000 for a high-end Chrome OS device for its refreshing looks and a 4K Super AMOLED screen.

New Galaxy Tab S6 Lite renders leak along with complete specs

Samsung will soon launch a trimmed-down version of its flagship tablet. The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite was recently leaked through FCC certification and Netflix’s HD video streaming compatibility list. Now, complete specifications and images of the upcoming tablet have surfaced.

According to the latest report from WinFuture, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite has a 10.4-inch LCD screen with a unique 2000×1200 pixels resolution and an S Pen. The tablet’s body is made using aluminum, and it will be offered in black and blue.

Galaxy Tab S6 Lite specs

Under the hood, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is equipped with the Exynos 9611 processor, which is used in various mid-range phones from Samsung. The unannounced tablet will have 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage, and there’s a microSD card slot. A 128GB variant of the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is expected to be launched in some markets.

The tablet will be launched with Android 10 and One UI onboard. Samsung seems to have equipped the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite with a 5MP selfie camera and an 8MP rear-facing camera. In terms of connectivity, the tablet from the South Korean firm comes packed with GPS, LTE (in some variants), dual-band Wi-Fi b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

It is reportedly powered by a 7040mAh battery, weighs 467g, and is 7mm thin. There doesn’t seem to be a fingerprint reader on the tablet, but it comes with AKG-tuned speakers. The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is expected to be priced anywhere between €350 to €400 for the base variant with no LTE connectivity.

The tablet’s name was reported last month, and it has since appeared on the NCC certification body’s website and in press renders leaked by @evleaks. All of this means that Samsung could launch the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite sooner than later.
