NuVision Encite Book 12 Plus 12.5" Laptop - Celeron N3350, 4GB RAM, 64GB eMMc, QHD 1440p - $99 In-Store or $119 shipped - Micro Center
NuVision Encite Book 12 Plus 12.5" Laptop Computer for sale for $99 at Micro Center in-store. Shipping is about $19.
https://www.microcenter
Intel Celeron N3350 Dual Core Processor 1.1GHz / 2.4Ghz Boost
4GB DDR3 RAM
64GB eMMc storage
Intel HD Graphics 500
2560x1440 QHD screen
Single USB-C port, but comes with adapter for HDMI, USB-A, and 3.5mm
Saw this when browsing, and thought folks might be interested. The 4GB/64GB and the QHD display made it stand out from the other netbooks in this price range, which only offer 2GB/32GB and 720p or 1080p. It may be well suited to a few dedicated tasks like reading, writing documents, or as a remote client.
Also, one of the rarer instances where Micro Center actually offers Shipping.
Review for a model with more RAM and storage below. Doesn't paint the best picture, but keep in mind the review price was $350.

Looks like there are a few listings on Amazon in the $150-400+ range, with some additional photos

Quote from misterputz :
If you plan to only use the eMMC only, it's incorrectly configured out of the box. You can change it in the BIOS
BIOS > Chipset > South Cluster Configuration > SCC Configuration > eMMC Max Speed
Choose HS400
BIOS > Advanced > CPU Configuration > CPU Power Management
Power Limit 1 Power = TDP
Power Limit 1 Time Window = Seconds
I found my optimal settings to be 15 TDP and 128 Seconds.
It should give better read speeds.

The BIOS is unlocked and the TDP performance timeout can be modified. Theres no real heatsink on these so I recommend adding a thermal pad to bind CPU to the metal body.
There is a M.2 slot for a 2242 card.
There's a charge only USB-C slot with requires an input only. So while there are 2 ports, one on each side, only the right side is usable.
Am on mobile but can answer questions later.

Simple change in BIOS and adding Thermal Pads to CPU give a nice increase to the iGPU performance. This really helps with Chrome rendering.

What's the uusual battery life?
NuVision throws in a free USB Type-C hub to make up for the lack of integrated ports. The hub includes USB Type-A, HDMI, and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
IMO, at $130 and a little elbow grease, this laptop blows away most of the 11.6 Chromebooks you'll find.
I have one setup with triple boot, Cloudready on the eMMC, Linux Mint and Windows 10 on the M.2.
Dual booting Cloudready and Windows without the M.2 would be a tricky setup.

"System RAM is fixed at 4 GB with no options to upgrade."
the beginning of the review says 8gb memory, but later in the review it states multiple times that its 4
