The First Chrome OS Tablet for Education

Acer has unveiled their latest Chrometab 10 tablet, the first Chrome OS tablet specifically for education. That means it will be used in classrooms to expand and enhance student learning. Which is why the tablet comes with a 9.7-inch QXGA resolution touch display. That is 2048 x 1536 pixels with a 264 ppi density, ensuring that there is more than enough room for productivity. Furthermore, the added screen space provides clear and bright colours that makes content easy to read.

“The Acer Chromebook Tab 10 combines advances in hardware and application support to enable more meaningful learning for an even wider range of students,” said James Lin, General Manager, Commercial & Detachable Notebooks, IT Products Business at Acer. “The new Acer Chromebook Tab 10 encourages students to discover new ways of understanding the world
around them.”

The Chrometab 10 measures 172.2 x 238.2 mm and is only 9.98mm thick. It weighs in at 550 grams, but has the essentials for students. That includes a front 2-megapixel HD camera for web conferencing, with a rear 5-megapixel camera for video and photo capture.

Moreover, the Acer Chromebook Tab 10 comes standard with a Wacom EMR stylus. This enables students to write notes, capture ideas or easily draw and share content with classmates.
