Lava has entered the Notebook Segment in India with its new Notebook, the Helium 14. The company has collaborated with Microsoft and Intel, and the Helium 14 will be exclusively available on Flipkart. Priced at Rs 14,999 the Helium 14 will also be introduced at the offline stores starting from the first week of July. The Notebook will be available in purple and silver variants.

The Lava Helium 14 comes equipped with a 14.1-FHD display and is powered by Intel Atom processor paired with 2GB RAM. It runs Microsoft Windows 10 Home Edition and is backed by a 10,000mAh battery pack rated to last for an entire day of usage. On the storage front, the Helium 14 offers 32GB of internal storage that is further expandable up to 128GB. Furthermore, Lava also boasts of the TPM (Trusted Mobile Platform Module) which adds hardware-based security. The front camera is a 2-Megapixel sensor.

The launch of Helium 14 is an important milestone in the journey of Lava as a major Indian smartphone brand. It reiterates our commitment to continued innovation and is a testimony to the fact that we understand consumer needs. It is a handy device for smart business owners, young professionals, and students, enabling them to become more productive while being lighter on the pocket.- Gaurav Nigam, Product Head, Lava International

The Helium 14 will be facing stiff competition from the iBall CompBook and Micromax Ignite or Neo Notebook.That being said 2GB RAM on a Windows 10 powered device is not such a good idea and Lava should have at least offered 4GB as an optional. Design wise the Lava Helium 14 looks premium and is also pretty light at 1.4 kilograms.
