Lenovo N20p ChromebookPre-orders for the new Lenovo Chromebook N20p, a dual-function convertible, have gone live on Amazon in the US.

Announced alongside a traditional clamshell model back in May 2014, the 11.6-inch device features a novel 300 degree hinge allowing it to be used in either a traditional laptop mode, or flipped into ‘stand’ mode, where the 10-point touch display can be put to full use.

While the ‘stand’ mode is what differentiates this Chromebooks from similarly spec’d offerings available from other vendors, Lenovo also produce a fully convertible ‘Yoga’ Chromebook aimed at education. 

Touch support in Chrome OS is now maturing, so stand mode may be more useful than solely a means to view movies or scroll through some web results.

Specifications of Lenovo N20p

  • 11.6-inch touchscreen display (1366×768)
  • Intel N2830 2.16GHz Processor
  • 2GB RAM
  • 16GB SSD
  • Laptop & stand modes
  • 8-hour battery life

At under 1-inch (17.9mm) thick when closed, and weighing under 3lbs (1.3kg), the device is well in keeping with other models. But, usefulness of the stand to one side, the price is a bit of a letdown at a list price of $329.99.
