These refurbished Lenovo Chromebooks are only $80 in this deal

Chromebooks are lightweight computers that work great for the basics, but some of them cost as much as a regular laptop. If you want the convenience of a Chromebook without the high price, there’s an alternative.

This Lenovo 300e Chromebook is on sale for $79.99 right now ($284.99), but it won’t stay that way for long.

An $80 Chromebook

The Lenovo 300e Chromebook has an 11.6-inch touchscreen and a hinge that folds back, so you can use it like a laptop or flip it into tablet mode. That’s useful for simple tasks like browsing, streaming, and schoolwork.

Plus, it’s easier to tap around when you’re reading or filling out forms or working in a tight space. It’s much easier to get a little work done in tight spaces like airplane seats when you have a compact computer to match.

This model runs Chrome OS and uses an Intel N3450 quad-core processor with 4GB of RAM. It should handle email, Google Docs, Google Classroom-style sites, YouTube, and browsing through multiple tabs without lagging. Intel HD Graphics 500 helps with video playback and everyday visuals.

You also get 32GB of built-in storage, great for saving documents locally or installing new apps. That’s not a huge amount of space, but it’s enough for school files and a few key apps, and you can keep the rest of your files safely stored on Google Drive. The seamless integration with Google apps makes it a lot easier than it can be with other machines.

There’s also a built-in webcam for video calls, plus WiFi and Bluetooth for wireless internet and accessories.

This model is Grade B refurbished, which means it has been checked for function but may have light scuffs or minor scratches on the body.

Right now, it’s only $80 to get a refurbished Lenovo 300e Chromebook. Shipping is free.
