Asus Unveils Chromebook Flip, Chromebit HDMI Computer Dongle

-

Asus introduced the first-ever convertible laptop and tablet Chromebook, as well as an innovative computer dongle that plugs into an HDMI-equipped monitor and transforms it into a basic computer. Google announced both upcoming products in a blog post on March 31, along with two other new Chromebooks, one made by Haier and the other by Hisense, that are available for preorders immediately.  The all-metal Asus Chromebook Flip, which is just a little more than a half-inch thick (19/32 of an inch) and weighs less than 2 pounds, will be available later this spring, starting at $249. The Flip is the first Chromebook that can easily convert from a tablet to a laptop with a simple flip, according to Google. Asus Chromebook Flip includes a Rockchip 3288 processor, a choice of 2GB or 4GB of memory, a choice of 16GB of eMMC storage or 16GB of solid-state drive (SSD) storage, a 10.1-inch In-Plane Switching (IPS) display, an ARM Mali 760 quad-core graphics chip, battery life of up to 10 hours on a charge, an integrated track-pad, Bluetooth 4.0, and built-in 802.11ac WiFi.

Apple Watch pre-orders open

The Apple Watch is here! Kind of. Pre-orders are now open online, which is honestly not as exciting as waiting in line for days in anticipation of the next big thing. However, the actual watches will take weeks, and for most people more than a month to arrive, as shipping times are surprisingly long. Apple Watch Sport ships in June (!) Apple Watch (stainless steel) shipping times are four to six weeks Apple Watch Edition shipping times vary between models from July to August (!!) Hey, but if you want to order a band without the watch it will arrive quicker: it only takes 2 to 4 weeks for most bands to ship. Some ship in May (classic buckle), and others are simply not available yet (modern buckle). You can pre-order an  Apple Watch at the Apple Store here  (external link)

This appears to be the case with select German retailers, who already have pricing info up on their sites. Dug out by  WinFuture , the prices are actually below expectations, as the 32GB version of the G4 is set to undercut its 32GB Samsung peer – it'll apparently cost between €679 and €689, which is €10 to €20 cheaper than the Galaxy S6. These prices are only for the 'base' model without fancy leather adorning its back. For that one, German buyers will have to whip out something along the lines of €729 to €739, which is obviously more expensive than the Galaxy S6, but still cheaper than the extravagant galaxy S6 edge.
