An AUE date "only" four years out doesn't compare favorably to the 6+ years you might've seen on some of the deals on Lenovo models as of late. However, the good news is that Google should have delivered on LaCros (the decoupling of the browser and underlying ChromeOS) before that 2026 AUE date meaning the browser on this Chromebook could continue receiving updates well past the AUE date.
The chromebook won't die on the AUE date, and your apps in Linux and Android would continue to take updates, however the ChromeOS and integral browser do stop receiving updates. As the risks associated with ChromeOS are relatively low thus far (i.e. -sandboxing works), creating a path to maintain browser updates past the AUE date really makes the basic Chromebook experience an potentially evergreen one.
Good luck!

Auto update expired June 2026. Not sure if this will help anyone.

Should mention the two-year Allstate warranty in the title/OP. IMO it makes buying refurbished a "safer" experience. All things considered it seems like a really good price!
Can this run Linux. I'd buy if I can wipe google off this thing.
Ubuntu requires a dual core processor, 4GB ram and 25GB drive space. You'll be a bit low on drive space after install, but system should run fine. https://help.ubuntu.com/community...quirements

mine got extended to june/2027 awhile back (I believe same model)
Good point. There are multiple Acer Chromebook 315 models in the list but the only entry covering the CB315-3HT model does indeed list a June 2027 date!

You can run Linus within a sandbox in the ChromeOS, though I've found that Linux on ChromeOS is much more stable on my 8GB chromebook than my 4GB chromebook.
Only very specific chromebooks have supported workarounds to allow for wiping ChromeOS in favor of booting Linux directly. I am not aware of that being an option for this device.

Unless you really need the touchscreen, this might be a better option then a referb.
