90 minutes left to grab Best Buy's best Cyber Monday Chromebook deal

We're down to the last two hours of Cyber Monday Chromebook deals, and a deal that was sold out this morning is back on the block for you late shoppers. The Lenovo Flex 3 Chromebook is just about the perfect sub-$200 Chromebook for kids, travelers, and anyone needing a solid little laptop; the touchscreen makes interacting with apps and social media a breeze, and the ample port and all-day battery life let you throw it in your bag and head out for a full day of work, no problem.

While there are fancier Chromebooks out there, if you're just wanting to try Chrome OS out, there's nothing better than the Lenovo Flex 3 because it gives you everything you want in a Chromebook while still staying in impulse-buy territory. (If you want a higher quality but smaller gateway to Chrome OS, the Lenovo 10e Chromebook Tablet is still down to $99 at Lenovo).

Lenovo Chromebook Flex 3 (Save $230)

$149 at Walmart

The Lenovo Chromebook Flex 3 is the same winning formula as the Lenovo C330, but it'll get Chrome OS updates until June 2028. Combining that with a 2-in-1 touchscreen, stellar battery life, and durable build makes it a no-brainer for kids.

The Flex 3 features the same chipset and performance as the most popular Chromebook three years running, the Lenovo Chromebook C330. That was the Chromebook I fell back in love with compact Chromebooks on, because it was good, old reliable. If I got bored in my apartment, I could swoop it up and take it to a theme park to write somewhere more fun. (I live at Walt Disney World; where better to test new phones and gadgets, right?)

It's not rated for durability like an education edition Chromebook, but it's just as tough, and mine held up like a champ — right up to the day I sent it to a coworker for his kid to use when the pandemic started. While I wish this was the 64GB model — Amazon had it down to $160, but that deal sold out, too — this is the the Chromebook I've recommended to coworkers and family members this holiday shopping weekend.

"Hey, my kid needs a new Chromebook! What's your pick?" "What's your budget?" "Under $200." "This one right here!"

You have until 1AM Eastern Time to take advantage before this deal turns back into a pumpkin, assuming it doesn't sell out again between now and then.

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
