Most Chromebooks ship with only 8GB of RAM, which is enough for some people, but certainly not enough for me. Multitaskers who want more memory in their next Chromebook should check out Best Buy , which is discounting Acer’s Chromebook Plus Spin 514 for the remainder of the day. Originally $749 for the configuration with 12GB of RAM, a MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910 processor, and 256GB of UFS storage, it’s down to $559 right now. It’s a good price for what we consider to be one of the best Chromebooks you can currently buy.


Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 (2025)
My colleague Antonio G. Di Benedetto had a lot of nice things to say about this model in his October 2025 review. He praised the capabilities of its Arm-based processor, which is uncommon for a Chromebook review, as well as its day-plus battery life. The Spin 514 is great to use as a laptop, with a tactile keyboard and satisfying mechanical trackpad, but its 14-inch 1920 x 1200 120Hz IPS touchscreen can bend backwards to be used as a tablet. No stylus is included, but you can use any USI 2.0 stylus you’d like.
If you want to know about other good discounted options, Lenovo’s Chromebook Plus 14 that Antonio likes a bit more is $649 (originally $999) at Best Buy . While it has the same processor and storage amount, it’s the model to buy instead if you want a little more RAM (16GB), an OLED screen, superior speakers, and fingerprint biometric support.
