With back to school sales in full swing at a number of retailers, there are some big savings available on Chromebooks. It's a good time to buy, then, if you're on the hunt for a cheap laptop that's best suited to school work and won't break the bank.
One of the best available right now is this HP Chromebook 14, at Amazon for $159.99 (was $289.99). That's a huge $130 saving on a thin and light 14-inch device that also boasts 64GB of storage, which is enough for your key files, and all-day battery life of up to 14 hours. Performance is reasonable for the cost, too, as it will handle light use and schoolwork with ease, with the added benefit of a larger display compared to most 11-inch Chromebooks in this price range.
That's the standout offer today, but we've also picked out a couple more affordable Chromebook deals available at Amazon if you want to consider some other options. These include smaller devices if you prefer portability, as well as a 2-in-1 option if you want the flexibility of a tablet in your laptop.
