Should you wait for Cyber Monday for Chromebook deals?

With Cyber Monday nearly here, you might be wondering whether you should be looking for deals now or wait until November 28th. The answer is that it depends on what you're looking for...

If you see an early Cyber Monday Chromebook deal, at a price that you like, it's probably a good idea to grab it before stock runs out. You could see it drop even further in a couple of days, but waiting always brings the risk that the model you've got your eye on could sell out completely by then. 

If you're shopping by budget instead of model, you may prefer to hold off and see just how low the prices can fall. It's usually a great opportunity to snatch a higher performance Chromebook at a budget price.

What will the best Cyber Monday Chromebook deals be?

Amazon typically has the most Cyber Monday deals going of any other retailer, so it's going to have a healthy share of the Cyber Monday Chromebook deals out there. They won't be the only ones though.

Best Buy cut $100 off the price of two high-end Chromebook configurations last year during its Cyber Monday sale. The Asus Chromebook Flip 2-in-1, featuring an Intel Core i5-1021U processor, 16GB LPDDR3 RAM, 512GB SSD, and a 14-inch full HD display was discounted from $999 to $899. A lower specced model, featuring an Intel Core i3-1011U processor, 8GB LPDDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD, and a 14-inch full HD display was discounted from $799 to $699.

Walmart is also a popular source of Cyber Monday Chromebook deals, and if you're looking for a lower-specced model at a fire sale price, you can expect to see a decent Chromebook on sale for under $200 at Walmart on Cyber Monday.
