This is an article from the MediaGene Commerce team.
If you missed the Black Friday sale, you still have a chance!
There are many notebook PCs that are eligible for special coupons for readers only on Amazon.
If you enter the coupon code "AMZNCMBK2112" at the time of payment, a discount of 5,000 yen will be applied.
I'll pick some of the things I'm interested in and introduce them. Please check the special sale page for all products.
In addition, the following prices are those at the time of writing. Prices are subject to change and early termination, so please check each sales page.
A detachable PC that becomes a tablet
"ASUS Chromebook Detachable CZ1" is a 2-way Chromebook that can be used as a tablet by splitting the keyboard.
It also comes with a touch pen, and it seems to be easy to use.
Speaking of Chromebooks, of course, there are merits for all people who use Chrome as their browser, but if it comes down to it, you can remotely control Windows and Macs with "Chrome Remote Desktop".
It seems that the coupon will be the price at the time of Black Friday, so let's get it at this opportunity!
Chromebook with a touch panel
The Lenovo Chromebook IdeaPad Slim 360 is a Chromebook with a touch screen, although the keyboard cannot be split.
The greatest feature of the Chromebook, a child of cloud computing, is that it runs smoothly even with low-spec hardware.
Just because it's significantly cheaper than a Windows or Mac doesn't mean it's a useless PC.
Let's use coupons to get Chromebooks that can be used not only for browsing, but also for SNS comfortably, at even higher cost performances.
For the time being, this is a Windows notebook with no problems
If you are looking for a Windows notebook with specs that will work without stress, try the "NEC LAVIE Direct NS 15.6 inch FHD (Core i5)". Check it out.
While the chipset is a Core i5-8265U, memory 8GB, and the practical minimum requirements to use Windows 10 (11) without stress, the point that cannot be overlooked is that the internal storage is an SSD.
If you don't use it for online games, video editing, etc., you should have almost no problems with this specification.
Since it is a modern specification that does not include the bundled version of MS Office, those who need it need to subscribe to Microsoft 365 or install an alternative application.
For those who want to reduce the amount further
If the chipset is Ryzen 5, check out "NEC LAVIE Direct NS 15.6 inch FHD (Ryzen 5)".
Compared to the Core i5 specification above, the number of clocks at maximum boost is slightly lower, but there is no big difference in experience, so considering the price difference, it can be said that this one is more cost-effective.
The bundle version of MS Office is not installed here either.
Equipped with MS Office Home & Business 2019, no additional cost
"Fujitsu FMV LIFEBOOK FMVA42F1W2" has a Celeron 5205U chipset and 4GB of memory.
If the built-in storage is an HDD, the specs will be a little difficult to recommend, but since it is equipped with a 256GB SSD, it seems that you will not feel a lot of stress in everyday use.
Since MS Office Home & Business 2019 is bundled, even if you don't subscribe to Microsoft 365, you can always use the Office suite at no additional cost, which is a great point.
If you don't have to share Excel files at work or worry about problems if you don't have the latest version, the 2019 version won't be a problem.
