Even though we are looking forward to returning to normal, Canadian classrooms are likely to remain digital for most of this year. Whether it’s English class, science class, or an after school tutor session, the need for reliable, fast and affordable devices is a must to thrive in this reality.

For parents and teachers alike, finding the right technology solutions for students to access curriculums and complete work more securely and on time is crucial. But with so many options and factors to consider when purchasing a new device, there are several key attributes that should be considered most.

Meet the Samsung Chromebook 4 and Chromebook 4+

Samsung Chromebook 4 and Chromebook 4+ are tailor-made for the “new normal.” With all-school-day battery¹ life, powerful processing speeds, and Android device-to-device connectivity, students from primary through to high school can connect, learn, share, and grow.

If you’re a teacher looking to recommend a new device that suits the needs of your curriculum, or a parent still making a “pros vs. cons” list before your purchase, here are the top factors that make the Samsung Chromebook 4 and 4+ our favourite study buddy.  

1. It’s highly durable: Samsung Chromebook 4 and 4+ can withstand classroom accidents and backpack tosses time and again. It has been drop tested to military standards ^{2, 3}.
2. Long-lasting battery: With a battery built to last the entire school day, students and teachers can stay connected from morning announcements to well past the final bell.
3. Easy to use: Samsung Chromebook’s Android operating system is just like using a phone or tablet that many kids are already familiar with. This allows for easy use, right out of the box, instead of troubleshooting with mom and dad.
