Lenovo’s IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook price hits an all-time low for Black Friday

<p>Our current favorite Chromebook, the <a href="https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9MZW5vdm8tMi0xLUNocm9tZWJvb2stQ29tcHV0ZXIvZHAvQjA5Uk5DTjNZVj90aD0xJnRhZz1nZGd0MGMtcC1vLWExLTIwIiwiY29udGVudFV1aWQiOiI5Y2M5N2UyZC0xYWRmLTRiN2EtYmViYi0wYzFjZWNhMzkwZDYifQ&amp;signature=AQAAAYfgRhOf5S---0B80jLxpD3ok2IUjd5p6G2EGggUG1QK&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FLenovo-2-1-Chromebook-Computer%2Fdp%2FB09RNCN3YV%3Fth%3D1" class="rapid-with-clickid" data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:">Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i[/url] is down to an all time low of $270 right now on Amazon. We've seen it dip down to $300 before, but this is an exceptional low and a great time to pick up a lightweight but speedy Chromebook. When we tested it out for our Chromebook guide (https://www.engadget.com/best-chromebooks-160054646.html), we particularly liked the extra bright and sharp touchscreen paired with the responsive performance. In fact, we said the Flex 5i offers a "level of quality and performance that’s pretty rare to find at this price point." That goes double on Black Friday.&nbsp;</p><p><core-commerce id="19e9a22255344fa3834c82b76b65a206" data-type="product-list"></core-commerce></p><p>This configuration runs on Intel's Core i3 chip and stocks 8GB of RAM along with 128GB of storage. While that's not a ton of storage, it's more than enough for the way Chromebooks work best, which is as a browser-focused laptop working in harmony with all of Google's apps. It's got a 13.3-inch touchscreen and a good amount of ports, including USB-C and USB-A ports, a microSD card slot and a security lock. Though we found the keys a bit on the smaller side, we still think it's the best Chromebook for most people.</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>The Flex 5i discount is part of a <a href="https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsInN0b3JlSWQiOiI2NmVhNTY3YS1jOTg3LTRjMmUtYTJmZi0wMjkwNGVmZGU2ZWEiLCJsYW5kaW5nVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYW1hem9uLmNvbS9kZWFsLzM2Y2EyYTIyP3Nob3dWYXJpYXRpb25zPXRydWUmcmVmPWRseF9ibGFja19nZF9kY2xfdGx0XzBfMzZjYTJhMjJfZHRfc2w3X2IwJnRhZz1nZGd0MGMtcC1vLWExLTIwIiwiY29udGVudFV1aWQiOiI5Y2M5N2UyZC0xYWRmLTRiN2EtYmViYi0wYzFjZWNhMzkwZDYifQ&amp;signature=AQAAAfqbVsK0a-9nIhP9bSpiHVZSaKnhSMNmAx9yLNysre2J&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fdeal%2F36ca2a22%3FshowVariations%3Dtrue%26ref%3Ddlx_black_gd_dcl_tlt_0_36ca2a22_dt_sl7_b0" class="rapid-with-clickid" data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:">larger Chromebook sale[/url] Amazon is running for Black Friday, which includes laptops from Acer, HP and ASUS in addition to more Lenovo devices.
