Chromebooks are scarce. If you’ve looked around the web in an attempt to find a decent device at a price that doesn’t induce a stroke, you probably know exactly what I’m talking about. As of this morning, Best Buy had less than six Chromebook models in stock and three of those were variants of the Pixelbook Go. While most manufacturers are working diligently to get new models into the market, it looks like late fall is going to be the earliest we see most devices back in stock on a regular basis. CTL has been at the mercy of high demand and short supply like everyone else but that hasn’t stopped the Oregon-base Chromebook maker from getting some new products in the pipeline.
In a company first, CTL has debuted two 14″ Chromebooks and these devices are looking to shake up the mid-range Chrome OS market thanks to some impressive specs with a very palatable price tag. For starters, CTL’s base model 14″ Chromebook comes out of the gate with a FullHD display which is not the norm when we’re talking EDU devices. Both devices feature Intel Gemini Lake-R CPUs that boast processing power that’s more than ample for the majority of users. I’m not just talking your middle school student, either. We’ll talk a little more about that in a second. For now, let’s take a look at the new Chromebooks from CTL.
