Acer is announcing the TravelMate B3 and TravelMate Spin B3 laptops for education that run Windows 11 SE or 11 Pro Education. The 11.6-inch laptops are able to survive the school day, with military-grade durability and 10-hour battery life. The laptops are to be available in the Middle East and Africa region in quarter 1 of 2022. The Acer TravelMate B3 (TMB311-32) will retail at EUR 359 whilst the TravelMate Spin B3 (TMB311R-32) at EUR 539. Acer says the devices are very customizable and is letting schools choose a model that suits their students’ unique needs.
The laptops are built to support the needs of K-12 schoolchildren featuring the latest Intel Pentium Silver and Celeron processors. They are MIL-STD 810H certified and feature shock-absorbent bumpers. This makes them tough enough to withstand up to 60 kg of downward force and drops from up to 4ft. A unique drainage design helps to protect internal components from moderate spills. A mechanically-anchored key design also provides a double benefit. One, administrators can easily replace the entire keyboard. Two, individual keys are well-secured so that they won’t be dislodged by restless fingers.

Durability aside, a number of thoughtful features help the laptops find their place within the classroom. Intel Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) with 2×2 MU-MIMO technology helps with connectivity in multi-user environments. An optional 4G LTE provides students with a connection when away from a router. A webcam makes the laptops suitable for taking classes from home. While a 10-hour battery life means that they can make it through the full school day, too. The battery indicator on the device’s front cover also lets teachers tell a student’s device needs a recharge.
The Acer TravelMate Spin B3 comes equipped with Acer Antimicrobial Design. It features not only an Antimicrobial Corning Gorilla Glass touchscreen, but also an antimicrobial (silver-ion) coating on commonly-used high-touch surfaces (including the keyboard, touchpad, and palm-rest surface) to protect these surfaces.
Users can further opt to include a dockable Wacom AES pen and 5 MP HDR world-facing camera, allowing schools to customize their laptops in order to suit their students’ specific needs.

TCL Communications makes entry into the Microsoft Windows ecosystem with the announcement of its first laptop, TCL BOOK 14 Go. The TCL BOOK 14 Go laptop will retail at $349 targeting students and young professionals. It will be available in quarter 2 of 2022.
Here is what we currently know about the new laptop from TCL. The BOOK 14 Go will run Microsoft’s latest operating system Windows 11 powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c processor. It is housed in a 13.95mm thin metal frame body with a 14.1-inch slim bezel display that weighs 1.3kg. TCL promises up to 12 hours of battery life and 4G LTE connectivity to keep you connected.
“We are thrilled to continue building and expanding into even more product categories while also enhancing the user experience,” says Stefan Streit, CMO of TCL Communication. “We are dedicated to providing features and solutions to our users, that help promote learning and growth“, he adds.
Last year companies such as itel, Infinix and realme, entered the laptop product category with new devices. This should bring healthy competition that creates good devices at affordable prices for consumers. Across Africa and the Middle East region I see the Book 14 Go laptop taking on devices like the itel ABLE 1, itel Spirit 1 and the Infinix INBook X1.

We will update this post when TCL shares more with us. Watch the device announcement below and get first impressions of how it looks.
