Amazon, Walmart

This fun little Chromebook won’t win any awards for speed or power, but we still love it and it’s reasonably priced. It has a small screen, but the resolution is high for its size and 4 GB of RAM is enough for web browsing and general use. This price is not unique to Black Friday; It’s been on sale for a while, but it’s still very good.

Walmart

This mid-range HP laptop has an Intel Core i5 chip, 8 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB SSD. That’s enough power for most people, but if you’re going to be editing photos and videos, you’ll want to look elsewhere. Also note that while this feature comes with Windows 10, it can be upgraded to Windows 11 for free.

Best buy, Samsung

Samsung’s Galaxy Chromebook 2 (8/10, Recommend with WIRED) is one of the most beautiful Chromebooks on the market. It has a sturdy, lightweight aluminum body with a build quality that surpasses many of the more expensive laptops I’ve tested. The bright, colorful display isn’t as pretty as the original 4K model, but it’s still much better than most Chromebooks. The original Galaxy Chromebook was also $599 off ($100 off). It has impressive specs, but the battery life isn’t great.

Amazon, Best Buy ($749)

This deal started back in October, but it’s still a pretty good deal. Once upon a time, this was the prettiest Chromebook on the market. Today, that prize would probably go to the Galaxy Chromebook above, but it’s still a solid machine, especially given the Core i5 model being sold here.
