Xolo Chromebook & Nexian Air Chromebook Available In India at Rs. 12,999

Google announced the launch of two new affordable Chromebooks – Xolo Chromebook and Nexian Air Chromebook – in India. Both the devices are priced at Rs 12,999.

While Xolo is an Indian handset manufacturer, Nexian is a tech-firm from Indonesia. Though the Chromebooks were announced in March, the pre-order for these devices will go live today. Powered by Rockchip RK3388 quad-core processor coupled with 2GB RAM, these devices will also get a 100GB of Google Drive cloud storage.

While the Xolo Chromebook will be available exclusively on Snapdeal, the Nexian Air Chromebook will be offered by Amazon. Apparently, Google has confirmed that it will also introduce Chromebooks from Asus and Samsung in the coming months.

“Super­fast to boot-up with built-in security and virus protection, Chromebooks help teachers and students get straight down to learning. They also come with Google Apps for Education which make it easy to create, learn and collaborate.”

“With the Chromebook Management Console, administrators can set up and manage up to thousands of Chromebooks from a computer or phone. Plus, regular updates from Google mean that Chromebooks actually get better over time, reducing school’s maintenance and software costs,” said Google.
