So, if buying one is on your agenda during Amazon’sBig Prime Deal Daysthis week, let us help you sift through all the options out there.
Best Prime Day Chromebook Deals
Amazon has selected a handful of Chromebooks to be official Big Prime Deals, but not all of them will live up to the expectations you might have for how a computer should perform. Through our own research and expertise, we’ve filtered out those deals and have scooped up a couple of others that aren’t explicitly “Big Prime Deals” to help you get the most out of your purchasing dollar.
HP Chromebook Laptop 15at-nb000
It might have a forgettable name, but the HP Chromebook Laptop features 2023’s Intel Processors. You can save $40 off the N200 model or get the Chromebook Plus model with the N305 for $20 off.
Acer Chromebook 317
If you need the space, you’ll get all 17.3 inches of it with Acer’s affordable Chromebook 317. You also get a 1080p display and a sizeable 128GB of storage.Prices have spiked $15 in the past day, but are still near historical lows
Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3
This Chromebook may not even count as a laptop t osome people, but Lenovo’s Chromebook Duet 3 is a well-equipped convertible tablet that comes with a detachable keyboard and an active stylus.Pricing stair-stepped down starting in September and you can see it dip to as low as $339 at the right hour.
Acer Chromebook Spin 314
The Acer Chromebook Spin 314 has an Intel Pentium Silver N6000, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage. This Prime Big Deal takes it down $30 from recent pricing.
What is the best Chromebook to buy during Big Prime Deal Days?
ChromeOS has long been top-of-mind in the budget laptop category and the occasional deal here and there would mean you could get an extremely cheap, but halfway-decent one for under $100. Well, it’s 2023, and our standards are going up - as they should - but prices are, too. So, we’ve picked these devices spanning the space under the slightly arbitrary ceiling of $400.
How we chose these Chromebook deals
Amazon is full of Chromebooks on offer, but many of them just don’t stack up to what ChromeOS is capable of in 2023 whether because they’re old or they’ve been modified by a third party. At Pocket-lint, we sort through every offer to make sure that you’re getting new condition Chromebooks that will be supported with software updates for years to come. We also make sure that prices actually do reflect a real sale - no hike-and-spike nonsense here.
If these deals aren’t to your liking, we strongly recommend checking out what you may find in the newChromebook Plusportfolio. They’ve just launched, so there may not be any discounts in time for Big Prime Deal Days, but you may just see a couple of dips in time for Black Friday.
