Our current favorite Chromebook, the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i is currently at an all-time low of $270 on Amazon. We've seen it go down to $300 before, but that's an exceptionally low price and a great time to pick up a lightweight but fast Chromebook. When we tested it for our Chromebook guide, we particularly liked the very bright and crisp touchscreen paired with the responsive performance. In fact, we said the Flex 5i offers a "level of quality and performance quite rare to find at this price". This doubles as Black Friday.
