The Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus hits its lowest-ever price of $549 before Black Friday

We’ve seen the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus dip to $599 a few times, and we thought that was a steal. But just ahead of the holiday shopping rush, the price has dropped even further, hitting a new all-time low of just $549.99.

This is a massive discount on one of the most premium Chromebooks on the market. At $200 off the regular price at Best Buy and $150 off at Samsung (they oddly maintain a $50 cheaper price point at samsung.com all day, every day), this is easily one of the best deals we’ve seen on a “Plus” branded device this year.

Why this Chromebook is a favorite

If you need a refresher, the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus is a standout device that nails the premium experience.

• The Screen: It features a stunning 15.6-inch OLED display. It’s crisp, incredibly bright, and offers the kind of deep blacks and vibrant colors that make working (or watching movies) a joy.
• The Build: Despite the large screen, it maintains an incredibly thin and light all-metal chassis that feels substantial and premium in the hand.
• The Specs: Under the hood, you get a capable Intel Core 3 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a spacious 256GB SSD, ensuring it handles the Chromebook Plus standard performance requirements with ease.

Two ways to save, but one clear winner

You can grab this $549.99 deal at two major retailers right now:

• Samsung.com: You save $150 off their standard $699.99 list price.
• Best Buy: You save a whopping $200 off their standard $749.99 list price.

So, with the final price being the same, why do we still lean towards Samsung.com? The answer remains the same: Trade-ins and perks.

Samsung continues to offer one of the most aggressive trade-in programs in the tech world. You can trade in eligible phones, tablets, or laptops to knock that $549.99 price down even further. On top of that, buying direct often gives you access to exclusive colors, the option to add Samsung Care+ for device protection, and a generally smoother return process with a generous window.

However, if you need it today and don’t have a trade-in, Best Buy is also a fantastic option for instant gratification. Either way, getting this level of hardware for $549 is a no-brainer, and it’s a deal you absolutely don’t want to miss out on!
