New Dell Chromebook 13: a gorgeous laptop that won't cost a fortune

Those currently looking for a Chromebook may have a bit of trouble finding the right one. There is really only one premium Chromebook right now, and it costs a fortune (yes, it’s the Pixel). Almost every other laptop running Google’s svelte OS is affordable, which is great, but most come with significant sacrifices. Where are the Chromebooks that offer both quality and value?

Enter the new Dell Chromebook 13, a laptop with a reasonable price point, powerful specs, great performance and a design worthy of envy. This little business-focused laptop seems to have it all (if you are fond of Google’s operating system).

Packed inside the Dell Chromebook 13 you will find a 13.3-inch Full HD 1080p IPS touchscreen display, a 5th-gen Intel Core i5 processor, a back-lit keyboard, 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage. It also manages to take you through a whole work day with its impressive 12-hour battery life. Furthermore, it touts premium materials like glass (trackpad), magnesium alloy and carbon fiber.

Google goes on to mention the possibilities Chrome OS brings to enterprise and education organizations. Because these laptops run on the cloud and are amazingly light, they also offer simplified installation and easy management. Chromebooks are secure, fast and convenient.

Without a doubt, this is set to be the best Chromebook after the Pixel series, and it will come at a much more affordable price point. The Dell Chromebook 13 is to launch this September 17th at $399. Are you getting one?
