Samsung Chromebook 2 Delayed Until End of May



Back in March, Samsung announced their new Chromebook. This is their second round of ARM-based Chromebooks. The first one came out in late 2012, and was, well not the best offering out there. But it was the first Chromebook that came in at under $300, selling for just $249. Now the Samsung Chromebook 2 has a bit of upgraded internals like a newer Exynos processor - we're looking at an Octa-core this time, along with a larger size. There is also a 13.3-inch model available with a 1920x1080 display. These two Chromebooks also have a faux leather back, similar to the Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy TabPRO/NotePRO tablets. It's going to be interesting to see how well it works out on a Chromebook.
