The only Chromebook I want to travel with is $100 off right now at Best Buy

Chromebooks aren't always the top-performing laptops, but they're affordable and just easy.

A part of that ease is thanks to ChromeOS, which is streamlined for your regular, everyday, run-of-the-mill web browsing, but it's not all software. I recently tested Samsung's Galaxy Galaxy Chromebook Plus and was shocked by how thin and light it is — it's actually the thinnest and lightest Chromebook ever.

That perk makes it ideal for travel; I think I speak for most people when I say lugging a heavy laptop around in a bag isn't super high on my to-do list.

And to make that perk even sweeter, Best Buy is knocking $100 off the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus' starting price, so you can save some money and your back in the process.

Samsung Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus: was $699 now $599 at Best Buy

Samsung's Galaxy Chromebook Plus is a lightweight Chromebook with extra performance, a solid battery life, and a big 15.6-inch AMOLED screen.

While the $700 MSRP is a little steep for a Chromebook, Best Buy has knocked that price down by $100 making this thin and light laptop something of a steal.

If you need a laptop that just works and is easy to cart around, this is a deal you're going to want to pay attention to.
