$125 off/$625

Samsung is now offering its Galaxy Chromebook Plus in Neptune Blue colorway for $624.99 shipped. That’s $125 off its usual going rate and the best we have tracked for it this year. This particular model hit the scene carrying a $750 price tag, and today’s deal knocks it down to one of the lowest prices we have seen it fetch since its debut in October last year. Only once before today have we seen it go for less than today’s discounted rate, and it’s now within $25 of that price. Head below for more details.

The Galaxy Chromebook, as highlighted in our launch coverage, is currently the brand’s thinnest and lightest Chromebook Plus on sale. It sports a 15.6-inch AMOLED screen and is powered by an Intel Core 3 100U processor. Samsung has paired this chip with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and this particular Chromebook also comes with a revamped keyboard that ditches the usual Launcher key for a new Quick Insert Key. All these features are packed into an ultra-slim design that’s just 11.8mm thick and weighs only 2.58 pounds, making it a great option for folks who commute and carry their notebooks for work.

If you’re open to buying a Windows laptop, Lenovo’s IdeaPad 5i 2-in-1 notebook is worth considering at $549 right now. This sports a 16-inch touchscreen panel and is down from its usual price of $1,070.
