Laptop computers don’t have to cost an arm and a leg.

The Samsung Chromebook 3 is just at home in the family room as it is in a book bag. A fast Intel Celeron N3060 processor and generous 4G memory capacity make it the perfect laptop for everyday use. You can check your email, kids can watch morning cartoons, relatives can FaceTime—this machine with HP anti-reflective display can handle everyone’s needs.
But one outstanding feature might be the best selling point of all. Thanks to a water-resistant keyboard, this mighty little machine can stand up to sippy cups topples, coffee spills, and the occasional splash without bottoming out. Finally, a laptop that can withstand the wear and tear of an active household!
The Samsung Chromebook 3 is also a go-to option for students. It’s lightweight enough to lug around in a backpack all day, and syncs up to the user’s Google account to access Android apps and games. It also lasts up to 11 hours on a charge—or until they’re saved by the bell.

This top-rated laptop also has built-in protection from malware and viruses. Bid a fond farewell to repair store trips forever. This is Samsung, after all—so if you want simple and reliable, this brand is a no-brainer.
“Since I am retired, I no longer need a computer powerhouse,” wrote one happy customer. “This Chromebook does everything I want to do while traveling. It's small, light weight, and secure. A great computer for the price!”
“This chromebook is faster than others I've owned and has a decent amount of on board storage for my needs. Great for internet browsing and works well with word processing and spreadsheet programs,” another shared. “Seamlessly streams Hulu...etc. A definite step up from my short-lived ASUS chromebook.”
“I’m a high school student and our school has very similar chromebooks so I decided to buy one. Oh boy it’s so convenient!,” one studious customer commented. “I can easily stuff it in my backpack and bring it everywhere with me. I haven’t encountered a lagging problem so far despite having at least 25+ tabs open at once...Battery life is amazing as well, and charges super fast. It can easily get through whole school day (~2-5 hours of use on average) on 50% battery and I’ve never had it die on me once.”
The Samsung Chromebook 3 is also an ideal second laptop for frequent travelers or anyone who spends a great deal of time in more than one homebase. It’s a lot of convenience all wrapped up in one small but efficient package. And today it’s less than $200. It might be the best investment you’ll make all year.
