Reviews for the CTL Chromebook NL72

Up Close With The Rugged CTL Chromebook NL72
Source: Chrome Unboxed
That about wraps things up. The CTL Chromebook NL72 is a solid laptop with many redeeming features but it doesn’t come without some sacrifices. Like many EDU devices, the screen isn’t great but it features a good variety of ports, a great keyboard and trackpad, and enough power to handle the average classroom. The best part about this Chromebook? The price. Comparable Chromebooks in the EDU space are going for nearly $400 and they don’t have that nifty rotating camera. The CTL Chromebook NL72 is currently up for pre-order and early shoppers can get it for the discounted price of $289. That’s some significant savings that could equate to stretching your school’s budget even further than you’d hoped. You can find the CTL Chromebook NL72 and CTL’s entire line of Chrome OS devices at the link below.
