Not everyone needs an AI laptop, but if you're in the market for a new machine there are many benefits to purchasing one. For example, AI laptops are great with power efficiency, so it means you can spend more time using cloud-based chatbots like ChatGPT without zapping your machine's battery life.

AI laptops also boast great spec sheets, so they're a terrific investment if you want a machine that'll last you a few years. Now that back to school laptop sales have gone live, some of the best AI laptops we've tested are now on sale.

My favorite sale comes from Best Buy. For a limited time, Best Buy has AI laptops on sale from $549. The sale includes machines from Lenovo, Asus, HP, Samsung, and more. These machines are all great for school, casual gaming, and everything in between. Below are the best deals I recommend as back to school season kicks off. (For more deals, check out our guide to this week's Best Buy coupon codes).
