If there is a King of the Ring for Chromebooks released in 2017 the ASUS Chromebook C302 would no doubt be a head-to-head contender with the Samsung Chromebook Plus.
As we have discussed in the past, each device has its own, distinct advantages. Personally, as much as I like the Samsung, I tend to lean towards the ASUS for overall look and processing power.
If you’re still on the fence, ASUS’ Amazon store front just made the deal a little sweeter. Normally priced at $499, the ASUS C302 is currently on sale for $465 and some change. That puts it almost neck and neck with the Samsung Plus but gets you a lot more horsepower under the hood.
Here’s a quick refresh of the ASUS’ specs in case you missed it.
- Chrome OS
- Intel Core M3
- 4GB RAM
- 64GB storage
- 12.5″ Full HD 1920×1080 display
