Update (5/31/2019 4:40pm EST): Our headline deal is now available at Newegg for a slightly lower price than the Dell listing we featured originally. We've updated today's Dealmaster accordingly.

Greetings, Arsians! The Dealmaster is back with more deals to share today. Topping our list is an even better price on an already affordable Chromebook. Now you can get the newest model of Dell's Inspiron Chromebook 11 2-in-1 with an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of RAM, and 32GB of eMMC storage for just $229.

The laptop version of this notebook is our current favorite Chromebook for students thanks to its utilitarian design, comfortable keyboard, and versatile port array. It's not the most exciting Chromebook to look at, but it has an impact-resistant design that makes its glossy, gray polycarbonate exterior more durable than some other Chromebooks. Its 11-inch size allows it to easily slip into a backpack, and it doesn't have as much of an impact on keyboard comfort as you'd expect. The keyboard is splash-resistant, adding another layer of protection to this machine. We also appreciate the port selection: the Inspiron Chromebook 11 includes two USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 ports, an HDMI port, an SD card reader, an audio jack, and a lock slot.
