Asus unveils midrange Chromebook C423 with a 14-inch screen
This new Chromebook is lightweight and portable.
Without much fanfare, Asus has unveiled the new Chromebook C423, a lightweight, midrange Chrome OS laptop. The C423 appeared on Asus' website over the weekend, where it was spotted by Reddit users.
The Asus Chromebook C423 has a 14-inch screen and weighs under 3 pounds (1.34kg) with battery, making it easy to lug around. It's powered by an Intel quad-core or dual-core processor, depending on which configuration you get, so it has some speed too.
