Chromebook body is made of plastic, but the magnesium frame provides strength, and it weighs only 1.04 kg. It works on a Samsung Exynos 5250 dual-core processor and 2 GB of RAM, and also has 16 GB of internal memory. From the ports - two USB 2.0, a slot for Micro-SIM and Micro USB for charging and Slimport. Promised about six hours of battery life.
