NEW DELHI: Samsung in the last month rumoured to be working on a first-ever detachable Chromebook. According to some codes founded by certain websites, the upcoming Samsung Chromebook is being referred to as ‘Nautilus’.

The device is once again said to support **Intel 7th-gen processor**, which means it will be one of the most powerful Chromebooks around upon its launch. ‘Nautilus’ could also have its high-end camera as one of the selling  
 points. According to the website, the Chromebook may feature a camera with **Sony IMX258** sensor. This is the same sensor that is used in the LG G6, the South Korean tech giant flagship smartphone of last year.

The new notebook comes with a built out of a magnesium-aluminum alloy the company’s deemed **“Metal12”**, that’s lighter than just aluminium and should bring a more premium feel than past plastic like laptop builds. They all are going to be equipped with a**1920 x 1280** displays and **Intel HD graphics**.

 conference.
