Deal Details
Bestbuy [bestbuy.com] has Microsoft - Surface Laptop Go - 12.4" (Low Spec - Good for Kids?) $399.99 27% Off retail of $549.99. Shipping is free. Model number: 1ZO-00001

Before you react to the low spec, I caveat that this laptop isn't for everyone. It only has 4GB RAM and 64GB of storage. Probably a good enough laptop to kids (reduce their chances to play too many games). Really should be compared to a chrome book, but with a MS OS. I wanted to post this since this is easily the lowest price in 60 days (see price graph in images). Other major merchants that I checked still has it over $500.

Specs:
  • 12.4 inches (1536 x 1024)
  • 10th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-1035G1 Processor
  • 4GB LPDDR4X
  • 64 GB eMMC
  • Intel UHD Graphics
  • Windows 10 Home in S mode
  • ~13 hours battery life
  • 2.45 pounds
If $399.99 is over your budget for your kids, here is another Kids appropriate laptop on clearance at BB from ASUS, only $186.99. Same storage and RAM, bigger screen size.

ASUS - 14.0" Laptop - Intel Celeron N4020 - 4GB Memory - 64GB eMMC - Star Black - Star Black [bestbuy.com] for $186.99 (15% off retail of $219.99). This laptop is often at this price though, so not that good of a deal.

No, You cannot upgrade I think storage/RAM is soldered to the board

I like it.

Currently I would probably go with the Acer Spin 3 deal for $50 more for more pixels and better ram, SSD. But this is smaller more portable and maybe better built quality

I think that the deal that Best Buy has had for months is a much better option. The other deal comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB SSD. This has emmc memory as opposed to a SSD, this is really slow.
