Asus Chromebook Plus CX34 reaches sub-$400 price point
For users seeking a budget-friendly machine, the Asus Chromebook Plus CX34 has dropped to competitive prices across major retailers. With various configurations available between $350 and $400, the laptop offers a balance of performance and utility that stands out in the entry-level market, supported by the efficiency of ChromeOS.
The most storage-heavy model, featuring a 12th Gen Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of space, is currently available at Amazon for $399.99. Those prioritizing processing power over storage might prefer the version at Best Buy, which trades the larger drive for a 13th Gen Intel Core i5 processor for the same $399.99 price. Walmart also offers a budget-conscious entry point at $349.99, featuring a 13th Gen Intel Core i3 chip and 128GB of storage.
Despite the modest 8GB of RAM, the CX34 remains highly responsive for daily tasks, outperforming typical bargain-bin alternatives. The hardware includes a sharp 14-inch anti-glare display, a 1080p webcam, and a versatile port selection including USB-C, USB-A, and HDMI. Additionally, the Chromebook Plus designation grants users access to Google’s AI tools, including a one-year subscription to Google AI Pro, which provides 5TB of cloud storage and access to advanced features.
