Just a few weeks after the latest Chromebook release from Samsung, a successor for the Acer AC700 was announced today, the Acer C7 Chromebook.
The new Samsung Chromebook seems to be a huge success. It currently ranks first on Amazon.com's laptop best seller list and is temporarily out of stock at the world's largest online retailer.
Before the new Samsung Chromebook is even shipping, the first hands-on video by Kevin C. Tofel is already available. In his 12-minute review Kevin initially compares the new model to its series 5 predecessor and then focuses on the brand new laptop.
The latest model of the Chromebook is advertised as the Chromebook for everyone. With a price of just US $250 for the WiFi model and decent technical specifications this may well become the most successful Cromebook in terms of sales numbers so far.
Right after the release of the new Chromebook Brad of Liliputing captured his initial impressions in this video. As with the 1st generation Samsung Chromebook he takes a critical look at the successor.
