Whether you’re a student or a professional looking for a no-frills computer that delivers in terms of productivity, now’s a great time score amazing Chromebook deals. For Prime Day, Amazon is offering solid discounts on various Chromebook models from electronics company Acer, including the Chromebook R 11 (33% off), the Chromebook 15 (25% off), and the Chromebook 315 (19% off).

Chromebooks are a different breed of laptops. They run on a Linux-based operating system developed by Google called Chrome OS and are built primarily for surfing the internet and handling modern web apps. This device stores data online and uses Google apps, eliminating the need for large hard drives where files and software are usually stored.
