Taipei, Sep 11 Taiwanese fabless semiconductor company MediaTek is aiming to launch a new chip for affordable Chromebooks that will be similar to Apple's upcoming Arm-based processors for MacBooks.
The company revealed it is planning to launch a 6nm ARM chipset that will power Chromebooks next year, at an event here organised by Acer, Google, MediaTek and Quanta, news portal TechNews reported on Thursday.
The Chromebook market has witnessed significant growth especially this year due to the pandemic.
