With the launch of new Chromebook Plus laptops, we’re spotting some great Chromebook deals for those that wish to stay up to date. Chromebook Plus promises to effectively offer double of everything with twice the performance, twice the storage, and twice the memory. Perhaps more noticeably, a new key component to it is Google’s AI being everywhere to simplify your life. Webcams have AI-powered noise cancellation, while there are lighting improvements and background blur. You also gain AI tools from Google Photos like Magic Eraser. These are just some of the upgrades that make buying a new Chromebook Plus super tempting. That’s why we’ve listed below some of the best Chromebook Plus deals around. Let’s take a look at what you can get for your budget.

The Lenovo Legion Tower 7i gaming PC with RTX 3070.

Building your own PC from scratch can be a lot of fun, but if you aren't tech-savvy or don't have the time to do it, then going for a pre-built PC is a great option. While you will lose a little bit of money in the process for assembly and parts, there are a lot of great gaming PC deals you can take advantage of to mitigate that issue. You also get the PC essentially ready to plug and play so that you can jump right into the best PC games out there and have some fun and entertainment.

So, if you're ready for an upgrade, this Legion Tower 7i is a great option, given that it comes with the impressive RTX 4080 graphics card. That will let you play many games, including AAAs, without too much issue, even on higher-end monitors. Even better, Lenovo is heavily discounting it to $2,350 instead of the usual $2,990 it goes for. That's a steep $640 that's being knocked off the price, and Lenovo even throws in three months of Xbox Game Pass, so this is an excellent deal all-around.
