Chinese companies haven’t started cranking out home-grown Chromebooks yet, but Emdoor’s new EM-T8513 and EM-T8516 may be the next best thing. These convertible notebooks have touchscreen displays, 360 degree hinges, the same processor used in the Acer Chromebook R 13, and a choice of Android 6.0 or Remix OS.
Remix OS is an Android-based operating system designed to look and act like a desktop OS, complete with a taskbar and multi-window support.
The EM-T8516 features an 11.6 inch, 1366 x 768 pixel IPS display, while the EM-T8513 has a 13.3 inch display, with 1366 x 768 pixel and 1920 x 1200 pixel display options.
Charbax from ARMDevices got an early look at the laptops, which aren’t yet available for purchase, so there are no details on the retail prices yet.
But both feature mini HDMI ports, a USB 3.0 port and USB 2.0 port, 802.11ac WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS and support for up to 2GB of RAM and up to 128GB of eMMC flash storage.
The systems are powered by a MediaTek MT8173 quad-core processor with two ARM Cortex-A72 CPU cores, two ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores and PowerVR GX6250 graphics.
