Samsung surprised us in late 2024 when it made a triumphant return to the Chromebook space with the Galaxy Chromebook Plus. Fast forward to today, and it remains one of the best options out there. But now, it’s one of the best Cyber Monday Chromebook deals, as it’s $150 off.
Frankly, we’re kind of surprised to see that this deal is still hanging around, as it was one of the first big Black Friday deals we saw. However, there are still a bunch of great Samsung Cyber Monday deals going on, so it’s awesome to see the Galaxy Chromebook Plus included.
✅Recommended if: You want a Chromebook that’s incredibly thin and lightweight, while still being able to enjoy a beautiful and massive 15.6-inch AMOLED display.
❌Skip this deal if: You need a Chromebook that offers a bit more “oomph” in the horsepower department, or one that sports a convertible design.
Very few expected Samsung to jump back into the Chromebook mix, but it did so with a bang. This was the first Chromebook to be released with the Quick Insert key, giving you easy access to Gemini from practically anywhere. Not only that, but it understands the context of whatever window you’re using, meaning that when pressed, the Quick Insert menu will show relevant and/related tasks.
The star of the show, for some at least, is the gorgeous 15.6-inch AMOLED touchscreen display. Outside of those who suffer from PWM, Samsung’s displays are some of the best out there, and the Galaxy Chromebook Plus is no different.
For others, the Galaxy Chromebook Plus is an intriguing option due to how thin and lightweight it is. It weighs just 2.58 pounds, and at the thinnest point measures in at a mere 11.8mm (0.46-inches.) Surprisingly, this is actually thinner than the Galaxy Z Fold 6, but of course, not the redesigned Galaxy Z Fold 7.
As you’d expect, it’s no slouch in the performance department either. It’s powered by the Intel Core 3 100U chip, paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of expandable storage. However, this is the only configuration that Samsung offers, which is rather disappointing.
Nevertheless, with Cyber Monday winding to a close, it won’t be long before this deal is gone again. So make sure you jump on the train before it runs out of steam.
