Just a couple weeks ago, we were thrilled to tell you about the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus hitting a new record-low price. At the time, I thought the deal couldn’t possibly get any better for one of the best Chromebooks on the market. But I was wrong. It just got $50 cheaper.
In a move that is pretty wild, the price has dropped once again, shattering last month’s record and setting a new all-time low of just $549.99. For a device of this caliber, a price this low is simply unheard of, and it makes this an absolute must-buy situation.
A quick reminder of why this is one of the best
If you’re not familiar with this Chromebook, it’s a device that gets nearly everything right. It starts with the remarkably thin and light design. For a 15.6-inch Chromebook, it weighs just 2.58 pounds and is a mere 11.8mm thick, giving it a surprising level of portability.
Complementing that sleek design is the vibrant AMOLED display. The screen excels in color accuracy, brightness, and overall visual quality, making it an absolute pleasure to use.
Beyond that, the Galaxy Chromebook Plus comes with a stellar backlit keyboard, a solid selection of ports, and a spacious, smooth trackpad. Internally, the Intel Core 3 processor, paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, provides smooth and responsive performance, all while delivering an impressive battery life of 10 to 13 hours.
This is a true, no-compromise Chromebook that delivers a premium experience across the board. To see it priced at just $549.99 in the middle of August is absolutely wild. We have no idea how long a deal this aggressive will last, so if you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to snag a high-end Chromebook, this is it. Don’t hesitate.
