Chromebook deals are bountiful this Presidents’ Day, and those who are looking for a slightly more-premium experience will love this next entry. Best Buy is currently offering $250 off for this 15.6-inch HP Chromebook Plus, marking nearly half off the normal purchase price.
The laptop includes a 15.6-inch Full HD LED screen, a full-size keyboard with a number pad, and a thin, lightweight design that’s perfect for taking it on the go.
✅Recommended if: you’re looking for a cheap laptop and you’ve liked other Chromebook interfaces in the past; you want something affordable with decent performance for web browsing, streaming, and basic school or work tasks that don’t require high-level processing; you like a laptop with a large screen of around 15.6 inches, and you don’t want to pay a premium-level price tag for it.
❌Skip this deal if: you need a laptop with industry-leading performance, and you’d instead consider some of the best Chromebooks on the market across price ranges; you prefer a smaller laptop to a larger one, and portability is one of your main priorities; you prefer Samsung or other manufacturers, and you’d rather hold out for deals on those.
The HP Chromebook Plus bills itself as a decent mid-range laptop option, with a normal sticker price of $549. It includes a 15.6-inch LED display with a Full HD resolution, 128GB of storage, a microSD slot, and 8GB of RAM. It’ll also outperform the base-level Chromebook lineup across many brands, as supported by the Intel Core i3 processor, which sports boost clock frequencies of up to 3.8GHz.
HP says this laptop will get up to a little over 13 hours of battery life, and while that certainly isn’t industry-leading, it’s sure to be enough for most casual users, students, and professionals.
Some laptops, like the premium-level HP Elite Dragonfly Chromebook, feature additional features like a haptic trackpad, a Digital Pen, and other features that better rival those with Windows and macOS. However, if a low price point is your main concern and you don’t mind going with a Chromebook Plus, this discount may be a really good time to pull the trigger.
