Cyber Week is almost over and there's less than three weeks left till Christmas. Fortunately, some sales are being extended — and one of this weekend's best sales comes from Dell.

For a limited time, Dell has laptops on sale from $249. As part of its extended sale, you can get the Editor's Choice XPS 13 for just $849. I recommend this deal because there are few compromises. You get a 13.4-inch 2K display, Snapdragon X Plus CPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. Gamers will also want to get this Alienware 16 Aurora with RTX 5050 for just $849. It's the cheapest RTX 50 series Alienware I've seen.
