I strongly doubt that. Otherwise premium (by Apple standards at least) or midrange specs laptop but with a slow CPU wouldn't be that popular.
It makes sense in a very cheap (< $300) device but add 32 GB of RAM, a decent screen and chassis and it would be competing with significantly more expensive laptops with a proper CPUs. Seems like an extremely niche product.
- teleforce 2y agoPersonally if they are selling around USD500 - USD600 I will be buying in a heartbeat and I think most people will be buying as well especially in developing countries. The typical specs of the price range mentioned above are FHD and 8GB RAM, both features are a few times worst laptop compared to QHD dislay and 32GB RAM.

They can already buy a Lenovo/HP/etc. laptop for <500$, FHD and 16 GB RAM (and most in that price range seem to have upgradeable storage/memory). I'm not sure the $50-100 or so saved on the CPU would be enough to significantly improve build quality or a much better screen. The N100 just just doesen't seem to have that many advantages over something like: https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-intel_processor_n100-vs-intel_core_i5_1235u https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-intel_processor_n1... Yes, you get to save 5-15W or so, but you get a much slower chip with a way worse GPU. Still seems very niche.
