This renewed Chromebook is available on Amazon

Chromebooks are budget-friendly options under normal circumstances, but this renewed gem from HP costs a whopping $60. That’s almost 80% off! That’s a huge savings that can get you a laptop for the same price as a nice dinner. If you’re concerned about buying used products, don’t worry: every refurbished product on Amazon is checked by professionals to ensure optimal performance and comes with a 90-day Amazon Renewed Guarantee.

This is a lightweight Chromebook that’s great for on-the-go browsing and convenience. Don’t get me wrong – you won’t be doing anything heavy with this laptop. No Excel spreadsheets or Photoshop! But you can use it for things like light word processing and web browsing.

It features a 1.1GHz processor (rather slow by most standards) along with 4GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage. Almost everything you use this device for needs to be done in the cloud. It’s one of the reasons why the full suite of Google tools – Google Sheets, Google Docs, etc. – is so handy.

Unconvinced? Neither was this buyer—at first. “I won’t lie, I was a little nervous about buying a refurbished laptop. Shipping was super fast and it arrived in great condition,” said one five-star reviewer. “Some cosmetic wear and tear but that’s to be expected. I’m very impressed with the device I received. It’s fast and everything works great.”

Another user said that although the laptop was renewed, it didn’t look like it. “I bought this for my daughter’s needs… It looks brand new.”

Sure, this Chromebook isn’t a gaming machine, but not everyone wants a laptop that’s capable of displaying or running at high levels of detail in an image Cyberpunk 2077 at maximum settings. If you just want something to visit Facebook or browse the web for great deals (you know, like this one), this Chromebook is perfect.
