HP flash sale sees laptops, gaming PCs available from just $250

The HP Omen 16-inch gaming laptop on a desk with gameplay action on the screen.

There's a flash sale by HP happening right now, giving you limited time to enjoy discounts when buying a Chromebook, laptop, or gaming PC. With HP being one of the most trusted brands in the computer industry, we expect stocks of the discounted devices to get sold out quickly. You need to take advantage of the price cuts before that happens, and to help you decide, here are some of the best offers that are still available.
HP Chromebook 14 -- $250, was $310

Chromebook deals are generally more affordable than offers for traditional Windows-based laptops because their components are cheaper. However, that doesn't mean devices like the HP Chromebook 14 are slow, because Chromebooks promise smooth performance even with low-end hardware as their operating system, Chrome OS, is dependent on web-based apps instead of installed software. The HP Chromebook 14 features a 14-inch display and a 64GB eMMC for storage, and it's equipped with the Intel Celeron N4020 processor, integrated Intel UHD Graphics 600, and 4GB of RAM.

Save $1,000 on this massive LG 77-inch OLED TV at Best Buy

lg 48 inch a2 oled tv deal best buy february 2023 feature

Right now you can get a premium OLED TV for under $2,000. That's the kind of OLED TV deal we almost never see. This particular deal is on the 77-inch LG A2 OLED TV. It's $1,000 off, bringing the price down to $1,800. It's still expensive, but it's insanely cheap for such a large OLED TV. We love the LG A1, and the A2 is a fantastic TV too. Grab it before Best Buy raises the price again.

Why you should buy the 77-inch LG A2 OLED TV
OLED technology is the current cutting edge tech in home theater. With its ability to deliver perfect blacks and incredible contrast no matter what's on screen, it will eventually become the standard TV technology -- once it gets a bit cheaper that is. OLED TVs are able to achieve this by individually lighting each pixel, so areas that need to be completely black don't end up looking gray because of a nearby backlight. LG is by far the frontrunner when it comes to the best OLED TVs. The bigger brothers of this A2, the G2 and C2, claimed the number one and number two spot in our rankings, respectively. This A2 version still has plenty of impressive tech in it, while keeping the price more reasonable.
