AUE until June 2032
This has a very similar processor of Amazon Fire HD 10 2023 (MT8186A, 8C, 2x A76 @2.05GHz + 6x A55 2.0GHz) and Amazon Fire Max 11 (MT8188J, 8C, 2x A78 @2.2GHz + 6x A55 2.0GHz). Coupled with the slow eMMC and 4GB soldered RAM, obviously not fast enough for heavy tasks, but should be more than capable for web-browsing, light office tasks and media consumption.
It's good to have the little display upgrade from the previous gen with 100% sRGB, which is rare for a Chromebook at this price range.
At $149, I believe this is the lowest possible price. Maybe, sometime later, it might hit $139 when they have clearance.
I actually own that previous gen with MT8183 processor [lenovo.com] (same CPU of Amazon Fire HD 10 2019), mainly for streaming and very very light cloud-based document works (not for a larger spreadsheet). Checking email and web-browsing with few tabs are just fine. The battery life is great with the ARM architecture.

My 11 year old son has to carry a 2.6 lb chromebook and a bunch of books to school every day.
The school device screen is only 11 inches and not touch screen... if this is an upgrade and not heavier I'll bite.

Snapdragon, Intel Atom/N, Intel 6xxxx or better is going have snappy performance for longer and under $100-200

With this device, I'd assume you'd need to change some graphic settings in the game to ensure smoother gameplay. Your 11 year old may or may not care about needing that.
