If you need a grab-and-go laptop for work, Best Buy is your destination today. The big box retailer is selling a 15.6-inch Asus Vivobook for $320. That’s $130 off of the MSRP.
This laptop features an Intel Core i3-1005G1 with two cores, four threads, and a boost to 3.4GHz. It’s also packing 8GB of RAM and a 256GB NVMe SSD. You can expect respectable performance, especially for everyday tasks like video streaming and web surfing. It may struggle with complicated spreadsheets, however. The downside is that the display is only 1600-by-768 resolution. That’s a noticeable downgrade from 1080p, especially on a screen of this size, but it’s not terrible either.
If you can deal with the lower resolution, then this laptop has a lot of value at this price.
