The Acer Chromebook Plus 515 usually lists for about $400, but right now you can get your hands on one for just $279, an impressive $120 discount. You'll need to make your purchase soon if you want to grab one at this price.  

Chromebooks and laptops differ in a few ways, including that Chromebooks use the Chrome operating system and aren't natively compatible with Windows or Mac software. There are ways to access Office apps and other software on a Chromebook, so if you can live with that, today's deal may be a solid option for the average user. 

This Chromebook sports a large 15.6-inch full high-definition display with an antiglare coating that should make it easy to work even when you're in bright spaces. It also comes equipped with a 12th-gen Intel Core i3 processor and 128GB of flash onboard storage, as well as the ability to access your Google Docs, Sheets and Slides even when you're offline. It also has DTS audio, AI-powered video call tools and HDMI, USB-A and USB-C ports so you have plenty of versatility for whatever you need. With up to 10 hours of battery life, you'll be able to get things done even when you're on the go.
