“The Intel Education 2-in-1 is part of Intel’s Education Solutions to create a better learning environment for students”
Intel has unveiled its first ever Education 2-in-1 device targeted at students at an event in Delhi. The 2-in-1 claims to offer the flexibility and mobility of a tablet plus the performance and productivity of a laptop, giving students the experience of two different segments in one device.
Intel has only introduced a reference design of its 2-in-1 Education PC, so there is no word on the pricing as of now. The onus of making the final product based on this reference design is on Intel's hardware partners, so we'll have to wait and watch. The unveiling of the 2-in-1 Education PC for India is part of Intel’s approach of creating a transformed learning environment. It includes increasing awareness of technology and integrated digital assessment for real time analysis and feedback.
Coming to the specifications, the Intel Education 2-in-1 is powered by a quad-core Intel Atom Z3740D processor and runs Windows 8.1. It offers 7.8 hours of battery life in tablet mode, and an additional three hours when docked to the keyboard station for laptop use.
It is built on a durable and ruggedised design, which can withstand drops of up to 70 cm. It is also IP51 certified for resistance against dust and water. It also comes with a stylus and a snap-on magnification lens that works with the apps included in the Intel Education Software suite.
