The toughest tablet for learning

Spend time in any classroom, and you know to expect the unexpected. And when you’re teaching and learning in new and innovative ways, you need rugged, versatile tools like ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100! Whatever your needs — at school, college, university or home — you can rely on this 9.7-inch tablet. With its super-rugged construction, compact design and long-lasting battery, ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100 is the choice for a more intuitive learning experience: make videos to explore the world around you and build communication skills, experience augmented reality to bring learning to life in new ways, or collaborate with others next to you or miles away. Not only is it designed to shrug off everyday knocks and bumps, but its compact size, built-in pen holder and ergonomic design lets you learn and teach in a way that’s as flexible, agile, and unique as you.

Tough protection, durable finish

ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100 is built to endure intensive use, whether it’s an accidental drop or a science experiment gone awry. All four exterior edges and corners are protected by a tough rubber bumper1, which reduces the impact of physical shocks to ensure critical components are always safe and sound. The tough micro-dimple textured finish means no more worries about scratches or fingerprints!

Ready for action

To protect your investment, ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100 is built to surpass demanding military-grade MIL-STD-810G durability standards, and it’s also stress-tested to pass stringent ASUS quality tests. The tests in the full suite include operation in harsh environmental conditions — including extremes of altitude, temperature and humidity — along with physical vibration and shock tests designed to mimic rough day-to-day handling.

Easy to carry

For effortless learning, indoors or outdoors, the 9.7-inch ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100 is compact and portable. It weighs only 506g and the micro-dimple finish makes it easy to grip, so you’ll want to bring it with you everywhere from your home to the classroom. Take it anywhere, explore everywhere!

Built-in pen holder

A pen is an indispensable accessory on a tablet designed for learning. That’s why ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100 includes a Wacom® EMR Pen for an effortless and natural writing experience. The handy built-in pen-holder keeps it safe and secure, too.

Write naturally

With the included Wacom EMR Pen, writing comes naturally. Whether you’re doodling, sketching or personalizing a photo, it’s easy to get every detail just right. And you don’t have to worry about your pen running out of battery life — because there’s no battery, with Wacom’s EMR technology — you don’t need to worry about pairing or charging the pen — it just works.

As beautiful as reality

The 9.7-inch QXGA (2048 x 1536) resolution display brings you all the beauty and excitement of the real world in stunning detail. ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100 delivers a vivid and engaging viewing experience that encourages you to explore more.

Experience immersive worlds

With Google Expeditions AR2 and the high-resolution rear camera, ASUS Chromebook Tablet CT100 can change the way you learn. With AR, teachers can bring the world into the classroom to engage students with immersive lessons, by dropping a skeleton into a science lesson, or the Mona Lisa into Art History. The possibilities for learning are virtually limitless.

Work more efficiently with Chromebook

Thanks to your Chromebook’s operating system, the Chrome OS, you can work smarter and more productively, with robust built-in security and automatic updates. Teach students skills like video production, coding, or podcasting with teacher-approved apps. With apps and Chrome extensions that can help you do almost everything, you can open up new doors for learning and creativity.
