Asus Chromebox 4 has been unveiled by the company as its new mini PC based on 10th-generation Intel processors. The Chromebox 4 appears quite similar to its predecessor, the Chromebox 3, that was unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) back in January 2018. However, the new model is an all-new machine internally — with 10th-generation Intel Core and Celeron processor options as well as Wi-Fi 6 connectivity. The Chromebox 4 also comes with Google Play support to allow access to Android apps. This is, however, quite common across other Chrome OS devices that support Android apps natively.

Asus Chromebox 4 price starts at $289 (roughly Rs. 21,400) in the US. The device will go on sale in the country in December, though there is no word on its availability in global markets.
