Benefits and Specifications  

Google Chromebooks are revolutionizing the way schools teach in the classroom. Designed for users functioning in a mobile and interactive environment, Google Chromebooks are a perfect fit for the classroom. Below is a breakdown of a few of the standout features included on the Lenovo 300e Chromebook.

• Durability

  • The device has been designed to withstand the wear and tear of everyday classroom use, with a reinforced hinge, rubber bumpers, and a spill-resistant keyboard. It has also been tested to withstand drops from up to 29.5 inches.

• Performance

  • The Lenovo 300e Chromebook is a 2-in-1 device, meaning it can be used as both a laptop and a tablet. It is equipped with a 11.6-inch HD IPS touch screen display with a standard resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. The device is powered by an Intel Celeron N4020 processor and comes with 4GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, and an Intel UHD Graphics 600 GPU. 

• Design

  • As mentioned aobve, this Chromebook is a 2-in-1 device. This is made possible by its 360-degree Yoga hinge, which allows students to use the device in a variety of different modes.

    • Laptop Mode
      • This is your standard Chromebook mode. Best utilized for typing and taking notes or using other applications during class.
    • Tablet Mode
      • Tablet mode is ideal for tasks that require touch input or drawing, such as taking notes, or sketching. In this mode, the device is folded back 360 degrees so that the screen and keyboard are back-to-back. This makes the device look and feel like a tablet, with the ability to use touch and a digital pen to interact with the screen.
    • Tent Mode
      • Tent mode is ideal for watching videos, presentations, or for video calling. In this mode, the device is folded back 360 degrees so that the screen is propped up like a tent, with the keyboard facing down. This mode is useful when space is limited, as it allows the device to be placed on a small surface, such as a desk or a table.
    • Stand Mode

      • Stand mode is ideal for giving presentations, as it allows the device to be propped up like a monitor. In this mode, the device is folded back 360 degrees so that the screen and keyboard are back-to-back, and then rotated so that the keyboard is facing down and the screen is facing up. This mode is useful when giving presentations or collaborating with others, as it allows the device to be easily viewed by multiple people.

The Lenovo 300e Chromebook is a versatile, durable, and affordable device that is ideal for use in the classroom. Its durability and unique hinge design set it apart from other Chromebook models, making it a reliable and practical choice for schools and universities. Overall, the Lenovo 300e Chromebook’s different modes offer flexibility and versatility for different tasks and activities. Its 2-in-1 design makes it a valuable tool for both students and teachers, allowing for easy transitions between laptop and tablet modes, as well as providing unique features for tent and stand modes.
