Ruggedised Design

Ultimate rugged design

ASUS Chromebook CR11 is engineered to withstand everyday knocks, bumps, drops and spills without damage. So, whether it slips off the side of a classroom desk or the dining-room table, ASUS Chromebook CR11 is built to keep on going.

All-round protection

All four exterior edges and corners are protected by a tough rubber bumper, which reduces the impact of physical shocks to ensure critical components are always safe and sound.

Shrugs off scratches

The tough, smooth finish doesn’t show scratches or fingerprints!

Splash protection

The spill-resistant keyboard can cope with water spills of up to 405 cc², so minor splashes are no problem.

Tamper-resistant

The gap between the edges of the keycaps and the keyboard surround is minimised to prevent the keys from being pried out.

Safe to hold

A rubber bar on the base provides a sturdy support for ASUS Chromebook CR11 while also making it easier to grip when carrying — a thoughtful design detail that reduces the risk of fumbles or slips that lead to drops.

Durability

Ready for action

ASUS Chromebook CR11 is created to thrive in the bustle of modern classrooms. Built to surpass demanding US military-grade MIL-STD-810H durability standard³, it’s also rigorously tested to endure stringent ASUS quality tests. It can withstand occasional drops of up to 120 cm — more than standard desk height — and the hinge and I/O ports are fully tested to endure the stresses and strains of everyday use.

ASUS Antimicrobial Guard treatment is registered by the US EPA and authorised under EU BPR.
ASUS Chromebook CR11 keyboard is spill-resistant, not waterproof. Water damage is possible if the product is submerged or exposed to large amounts of liquids for long periods of time. The ASUS standard limited warranty does not cover problems resulting from accidents such as water damage. To prevent water damage resulting from large spills or other accidents, ASUS recommends turning off the notebook, then tilting the laptop to drain away the excess liquid, wiping it off and letting it dry for at least 24 hours.
The testing regime includes the requirements of both military-grade standards and ASUS quality tests, and varies depending on device. MIL-STD-810 testing is conducted on selected ASUS products only. Note that the MIL-STD-810 testing helps to ensure the quality of ASUS products but does not indicate a particular fitness for military use. The test is performed under laboratory conditions. Any damage caused by attempts to replicate these test conditions would be considered accidental, and would not be covered by the standard ASUS warranty. Additional coverage is available with ASUS Premium Care.
ASUS Antimicrobial Guard is tested by an independent third-party laboratory according to the ISO 22196 standard (measurement of antibacterial activity on plastics and other non-porous surfaces), using bacterial cultures that include Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with an antibacterial activity (R) result of R > 2. R = 2 indicates a 99% reduction in bacterial activity compared to an untreated surface.
ASUS internal tests show that ASUS Chromebook CR11 can be safely cleaned and wiped using hypochlorous acid water or alcohol from a spray bottle. Individual sprays of up to 3 cc do not affect the performance of the Antimicrobial treatment.
ASUS Chromebook CR11 offer reduced flicker, but are not flicker free.

Device certified with ASUS WiFi Master Premium for ChromeOS feature WiFi 6 and offer enhanced WiFi stability when USB 3.2 Gen 2 interference is present, allowing users to stream smoothly when they are over 225 meters away or more from a router.
Based on Chromium OS power Load Test. The 12-hour use on a single battery charge was determined by looping local video playback at higher than 80 nits and at the default display brightness level. Battery performance is based on a mix of standby, web browsing and other use. Charging time requires the battery to be at least 5% charged, with the device inactive and using the included charger.
