I won’t go on a diatribe about Chromebook Plus branding right now (I did that already today), but it’s a real shame that devices as fantastic as the Acer Chromebook Spin 714 aren’t publicly labeled as Chromebook Plus right now. Sure, devices like this one will never get the new logo on the lid, but […]
Continue ReadingDeals
Part of the Chrome OS and Chromebook experience is the value in using these devices. Along with their already-low pricing, lots of outlets have regular and recurring deals on Chromebooks of all shapes and sizes. This is a great place to bookmark to find the latest and greatest deals on all things Chrome OS or Assistant.
Clearance deal: HP 15.6-inch Chromebook (Plus) is $149 off and on the way out
It wasn’t too long ago that a bunch of Chromebooks like the HP 15.6-inch went on clearance. There’s a good reason for it, too. With the new, Chromebook Plus-branded versions hitting the shelves, it was time for these non-branded ones to get their final markdowns and make way for the new guys. That wasn’t surprising […]
Continue ReadingClearance deal: get the non-branded HP Chromebook Plus x360 14c for $250 off
As we expected moving into the middle parts of November, the non-Plus-branded Chromebooks in the new Chromebook Plus lineup that have newer, branded counterparts are all seeing clearance prices at Best Buy. That includes devices like the HP Chromebook x360 14c, the ASUS Chromebook CM34 Flip, and the HP 15.6-inch Chromebook. Each of these devices […]
Continue ReadingClearance deal: score this non-branded ASUS Chromebook Plus for $199 off [UPDATED]
UPDATED – 11/8/23: Once again, the ASUS CM34 Flip is marked as clearance, and it really does feel like we’re nearing the end of the line for the devices that have newer, Chromebook Plus-branded versions on the shelves. Now that the Chromebook Plus models are not on sale (that will come back), these non-branded versions […]
Continue ReadingSave big on a big Chromebook: Get the Acer 317 for under $300
The Acer 317 is a big Chromebook, boasting a 17.3-inch screen that sets it apart as one of the largest Chromebooks available. We spent some time with this device when it was launched back in 2021 and were impressed by its blend of size and function. With a Chromebook of this size, it’s like having […]
Continue ReadingNow is the time to buy a Nest Hub or Nest Hub Max for up to $100 off
Just this week, we talked about the Pixel Tablet more than we have in months. Why? Well, with a few new tricks coming soon, the promise of a Bard-infused Google Assistant, and a $100 discount, the Pixel Tablet is finally at a spot where buying one might actually make some sense. However, the Pixel Tablet […]
Continue ReadingBuying a Pixel Tablet might finally make sense
It’s funny how things can change so quickly. Just a few days ago, I hadn’t really thought much about the Pixel Tablet since its lackluster debut. The idea of an Android tablet melded with a smart speaker was intriguing but as Robby noted in his review, the lack of Nest Hub/Assistant functionality made this device […]
Continue ReadingHP Chromebook Plus x360: don’t buy the wrong one [UPDATED]
Contents UPDATE – November 2nd, 2023: Right now, over at Best Buy, there’s a clearance sale on the original HP Chromebook x360 14c and, as I outline in the original post below, that device is inferior to the Chromebook Plus model. Since this post over a week ago, the new HP Chromebook Plus x360 14c […]
Continue ReadingThe Lenovo Flex 5i Chromebook Plus is a steal at just $379
We’re in the thick of the review process for Chromebook Plus devices right now (we have one nearing completion right now) and as they continue to go on sale left and right, I’ve been eyeing the best deals to consider, picking up that exact device, using it for a little bit, and then getting back […]
Continue ReadingLenovo finally drops the price on their excellent Slim 3i Chromebook Plus
Since the advent of Chromebook Plus – and actually a bit before – I’ve been pretty bullish on the excellence of the new Lenovo Chromebook Slim 3i. The model we have in the office is one of those strange breeds that released just before the Chromebook Plus news and is a Chromebook Plus device through-and-through, […]
Continue ReadingThe striking ASUS Chromebook Plus CX34 is $120 off at Target
Not to be outdone by the likes of Best Buy, even stores that stock just one Chromebook Plus model – like Target – are getting in on the discount action. Though we’ve seen some pretty steep discounts (and one wildly-reduced Chromebook) at Best Buy on Chromebook Plus models thus far, we’ve not seen much in […]
Continue ReadingDon’t miss massive $320 savings on this HP Chromebook Plus model
As Chromebook Plus launched earlier in October, I was a bit concerned how it would affect the regular cycle of Chromebook deals we’ve become used to. In general, when new products hit the market, they don’t immediatley go on sale. Most times, the new stuff stays at full price for a while and older, similar […]
Continue ReadingNew Chromebook Plus deals can save you up to $200 right now
Contents While I generally don’t love lumping deals together in one spot because I don’t want any of you to miss out on any chance at savings due to low visibility, this particular group of Chromebooks being on sale makes for an exception to that rule. Right now, between Best Buy and Lenovo, 6 of […]
Continue ReadingLast chance $250 deal on this non-branded convertible HP Chromebook Plus
The newest entry in the HP Chromebook x360 family was released far earlier this year, but it is also one of the models that is being re-branded as an official Chromebook Plus model at launch. And as we’ve discussed before, that means stores are ready to get rid of the non-branded versions in favor of […]
Continue ReadingDon’t miss the Lenovo Slim 3 Chromebook for under $200
Anytime a Chromebook dips below the $200 mark, we have to take a look. Many times, that sort of discount is relegated to devices I simply wouldn’t recommend anyone actually go buy. But in this case, much like it was earlier this month, the Lenovo Slim 3 Chromebook is well worth your consideration and is […]
