Lowest price since July when it was also the same price but with a gaming controller. Would this be considered slick stil?

This is a pretty good deal, especially the premium build quality and the taller 3:2 aspect ratio higher resolution 2K display.

FYI, this model has lower specs - i3, 4GB RAM, 64GB SSD vs. the model I would buy - i5, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD

Yeah. According to Best Buy, this model was released in 2020. The 2021 model uses Intel 11th gen chip.

It is eMMC not SSD, essentially the same as using a flash media card, but not removable.

Same link, just change the CPU in the first drop down to i5 to see the model with the higher specs. The model I like is not on sale right now but it should be $429 when it is.

Might help battery life a bit, but it is also a large sacrifice of drive performance, and not upgradable.

Since I've bene watching, I believe BestBuy has had a one-day sale on the 8/128 model three times. I snagged an "open box" version during the last one for $260 that looked new. Very happy with it. It also is/was? $389 via Acer's eBay store last week with a promo code for a refurb (w/ 2yr warranty). A frequent SD post.

Hmm I will look out for that, the i5 model is better but Ill see if the i3 is enough for me and I can return it.

This is definitely the "lower-spec" version of premium Chromebook series, but the i3 still manages to possess more horsepower than the "average" Chromebook. This should provide a solid user experience for a large spectrum of Chromebook users.

The price also seems relatively fair for the build quality and feature set, making it a great option for a general Chromebook audience. However, this deal likely triggered an alert for users more interested in the premium configurations.

Good luck!
Jon
