One of the best 2-in-1 Chromebooks is nearly $200 off today only

Most Chromebooks ship with only 8GB of RAM, which is enough for some people, but not enough for me. Multitaskers looking for more memory in their next Chromebook should take a look Best Buywhich is reducing Acer’s Chromebook Plus Spin 514 for the rest of the day. Originally $749 for the upgrade with 12GB of RAM, a MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910 processor, and 256GB of UFS storage, it’s $559 right now. It’s a great price for what we think is one of the best Chromebooks you can buy right now.

My friend Antonio G. Di Benedetto had a lot of good things to say about this model in his October 2025 review. He praised the capabilities of its processor from Arm, which is not unusual for Chromebook reviews, and its daily battery life. The Spin 514 is great for laptop use, with a tactile keyboard and a satisfying mechanical trackpad, but the 14-inch 1920 x 1200 1200 120Hz IPS touchscreen can be folded back for tablet use. No pen is included, but you can use any USI 2.0 pen you like.

If you want to know about other good ways to get rid of it, Lenovo’s Chromebook Plus 14 Antonio’s favorite is $649 (originally $999) at Best Buy. Although it has the same processor and storage capacity, it’s the model to buy instead if you want more RAM (16GB), an OLED screen, better speakers, and fingerprint support.

Some good, valid Verge stuff
