Google has just teamed up with a couple of OEMs in India to bring a new set of Chromebooks to the region. The Mountain View giant has teamed up with XOLO and Nexian in the region and aims to target the budget segment.
The Chromebooks are super affordable, making them an attractive proposition for students and people who are simply looking to give Chrome OS a go. These Chromebooks were spotted in an ad recently as well, so we’ve been anticipating its arrival for quite some time now.
Both Chromebooks are running on Rockchip SoCs, so the users can’t expect much in terms of performance. Initial hands-on opinions of the devices suggest that the XOLO offering looks to be more refined in terms of ergonomics and overall design.
As for the pricing, the XOLO Chromebook will be available through local retailer Snapdeal for Rs.12,999 ($204). The Chromebook by Nexian will be available through Amazon India and carries the same price tag.
Both Chromebooks carry the same 11.6 inch display, so it’s very hard to differentiate in terms of hardware or even the price for that matter. The Chromebooks also have 16GB of onboard storage (expandable), 2GB of RAM and 4,200 mAh battery units.
