New Chromebooks will come with the GeForce Now Fast Pass for a full year, alongside upgrades with the Blackwell RTX architecture.

What are the key differences between a Chromebook and a regular laptop? Mashable's senior shopping reporter explains.

Early Black Friday November 2025 Chromebook deals are dropping like leaves. Score an Acer Chromebook 315 for less than $120 or an HP Chromebook x360 14 for 41%, with more deals on the way.

Acer’s Chromebook (Plus 515) runs ChromeOS with Google’s Gemini AI stitched throughout the entire experience, from editing documents to organizing photos, and answering questions without you ever having to leave your workflow.

Write off Chromebooks as “just for classrooms” at your peril – especially when you can currently snap up the undisputed Chrome OS king at a tidy discount during the Black Friday sales season. Lenovo’s Chromebook Plus 14 is the finest Chrome-powered laptop I’ve seen in years, and right now it’s available with $50 / £100 off its usual retail price.

Most Chromebooks have much less onboard storage because most of the applications and documents are stored in Google’s cloud.

The Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 is the best, most well-made Chromebook I've ever tested. However, it's also the most expensive Chromebook I've ever tested and overkill for most people needing a simple, web-based laptop. As such, I've reserved it for splurgers (unless you can find it on sale — then it's my top pick).

At $129, this Samsung Chromebook costs less than many people spend on dinner for two and offers a fully functional computer that handles modern productivity and entertainment needs. You’re getting military-grade durability, 12-hour battery life, WiFi 6, and seamless phone integration for 57% off the regular price.
