Dell XPS 12 Convertible Laptop with Intel Core i3 Haswell Spotted running Android 4.4 KitKat
Yet another laptop manufacturer spotted with a laptop running the latest version of Android
Earlier this week, we saw a HP laptop spotted running on KitKat. Which we thought that was just something that HP was working on with Google. But now we're seeing a Dell laptop running KitKat as well, which makes me wonder, are we going to see Android laptops at I/O next month?
ASUS Chromebook C200 leaks Out Again
Leaker posts 6 high-resolution photos of the upcoming ASUS C200 Chromebook on Imgur
What do we have here? It appears to be 6 images of the ASUS C200 Chromebook which is due to be announced any time now. As far as we can tell, ASUS has used their same build quality that they are famous for with their laptops, on this Chromebook. It also appears to be an 11-inch display. It's touting all-day battery life, as well as it being very lightweight. There's also an Intel inside. So we're likely looking at the Intel Celeron 2955U which the Acer C720 and the HP Chromebook 14 both run on. Which brings us our all day battery life. We can also see that there is a HDMI port, as well as a USB 2.0 and a USB 3.0 - denoted by the blue USB port - as well as a SD card slot, headphone jack and a kensington lock. You can check out the images below and let us know what you think in the comments.Source: Imgur

Reminder: Acer Event Tomorrow in NYC!
Tomorrow morning, Acer is hitting the stage in NYC to announce something new. We really have no idea what it could be, but it definitely sounds like a new Chrome OS device. Their tagline is "Touch more connected" which is leading a lot of people to thinking it's a Chrome tablet or another touchscreen Chromebook. Which it could be either one of those.
