Best Buy serves up various discounts, but the offer to keep an eye on generally is the retailer’s Deal of the Day. This is where it picks one singular product from its entire range and adds a significant price cut with the only catch being that it’s available for 24 hours. A Lenovo Ideapad 1i with a 15.6-inch full HD touchscreen has been selected today, and if you pick one up quickly it will cost $260 as opposed to $500. That’s a big $240 reduction for getting one now instead of this time tomorrow.
Available in cloud grey, the laptop specs feature an Intel 12th generation core i3 processor that will do a decent job when it comes to multitasking as well as an Intel UHD graphics card that is a budget-friendly option for playing video games. Backing this up is 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, an operating system running on Windows 11 alongside a HD webcam with a microphone that is perfect for making video calls over Zoom or Skype.
