Google’s Chromebook series is getting a major upgrade. The new Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 is fitted with Dolby Atmos technology – far outshining the audio capabilities of previous models.

The injection of Dolby Atmos audio has been a long time coming. It’s the very first time Dolby has been involved in the creation of a Chromebook, with the Chromebook Plus 14 offering Google’s most “immersive” sound experience to date, boasting “unparalleled clarity and depth”.

“Chromebooks are powerful devices celebrated for their simplicity, affordability, and ability to inspire creativity,” Vice President and General Manager of Consumer Entertainment at Dolby Laboratories, Mahesh Balakrishnan, explains.

“With Dolby Atmos now available on the Lenovo Chromebook Plus, we are bringing cutting-edge, immersive audio to an even broader and more diverse audience.”

Lenovo has worked with the audio company multiple times in the past. The YOGA line, ThinkPad and Horizon lines are all fitted with Dolby audio technology – it was only a matter of time before a Chromebook got the Dolby Atmos treatment.

“It’s an important milestone in our long-standing collaboration with Dolby,” Executive Director and General Manager of Chromebooks in Lenovo’s Intelligent Devices Group, Benny Zhang, explains.

“We are committed to bringing innovative firsts to consumers everywhere and, through working with Dolby, our Chromebook users will now enjoy best-in-class premium audio.”

The new lease of sonic life is only the beginning of the new Chromebook’s improvements. The 14” laptop will offer an abundance of new AI-powered productivity features, all powered by a new MediaTek Kompanio Ultra processor.

The laptop also offers up to 17 hours of uninterrupted battery life, which is also the longest-lasting battery a Chromebook Plus has ever had. Premium models boast a touchscreen capabilities, as well as a fingerprint scanner.

The Chromebook Plus is available now. A premium touchscreen model costs $749.99, while a non-touchscreen model drops the price to $649.99.
