If you’ve been put off buying a new laptop because of the high prices that are being bandied about, fear not – this Chromebook deal is a great budget fix.
Chromebooks are a great choice for students and professionals who mainly require a laptop for internet-based tasks like web-browsing, research and writing. They tend to run much faster than Windows laptops and offer a more simplified operation right out of the box, thanks to Chrome OS.
HP’s Intel-powered Chromebook 14 is a great value option, especially as its original price of £249.99 has now been made even cheaper with a slick 40% discount, letting you nab it for just £149.99.

This particular HP Chromebook is outfitted with an Intel N100 processor with Intel Turbo Boost. There’s also 128GB flash storage, which is fine as Chrome OS is a cloud-based operating system so you don’t need a ton of local storage.
Thanks to Intel UHD Graphics, this Chromebook offers up a simple but passable multimedia experience, which is handy if you want to stream shows to watch during your downtime. The laptop uses an HD display for clearer visuals that can make details pop when scrolling through social media.
As a laptop designed for mobility, the HP Chromebook has a battery life of up to 12-hours on a single charge, which is more than enough to see you through to the end of the day, without needing to make a beeline for the nearest power outlet.
There are even dual speakers hidden away on this Chromebook, so you should have more than enough audio fidelity to get stuck into a daily dose of music or even a podcast.
In spite of its super low price tag, the HP Chromebook isn’t without its looks either. The Glacier Silver finish makes an impression and is far more visually interesting than the standard slate-grey finish that you’ll find on many Windows laptops.
