We’re keeping a running list of the best Black Friday Chromebook deals as holiday sales begin at various tech retailers.
Acer Chromebook 315 (Intel Celeron N4020, 4GB RAM, 64GB eMMC)
(save $80.99)
It’s not difficult to find a cheap Chromebook on sale pretty much whenever — but when Black Friday rolls around, you can expect prices to drop to outrageous year-round lows. (Several $79 Chromebooks were a highlight of Black Friday 2022 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart.)
While the Chromebook deals popping up ahead of Black Friday 2023 aren’t that good just yet, we’ve spotted a handful of tempting doorbusters starring ChromeOS-based laptops from Lenovo and HP as part of several retailers’ pre-holiday sales. That includes two models under $150 and one from Google’s new upgraded Chromebooks Plus line, which launched only weeks ago in early October.
Keep reading for a running list of the best early Black Friday Chromebook deals thus far, and check back often: We’ll continue to update it as more markdowns roll out.

Why we like it
In the cheapest overall laptop deal of Black Friday 2023 so far, you can get this 15.6-inch Lenovo Chromebook for just $139 at Best Buy. (Note that it usually sells for $219.99 on Acer’s website — the retailer’s price is slightly inflated.) It’s not an impressive PC by any means: It has an old Intel Celeron N4040 processor, a measly 4GB of RAM, 128GB of eMMC storage, a 720p webcam, and a 1280 x 800 display. But for this price, it’s a solid buy for casual tasks like web browsing, taking notes, and watching YouTube videos.

Why we like it
Google recently unveiled the Chromebooks Plus, a new series of premium Chromebooks with built-in Google apps, Full HD IPS displays, and 1080p+ cameras with AI features — they’re basically next-level budget laptops. This convertible 14-inch Lenovo model that can do double duty as a tablet comes with a 13th-generation Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of SSD storage, and a backlit keyboard. Best Buy just marked it down to $379, which is 25% off its suggested retail price of $499 — a hefty discount for a laptop that’s barely a month old.
