I’m a laptop expert and these are 50+ Cyber Monday laptop deals I'm recommending to friends and family

The latest MacBook Air is now so cheap, I'm all out of reasons to tell you to buy the M2 or M1 MacBooks. This is only up to $150 more, and you're getting the latest beefy performance for the price — maximum bang for your buck.

One of my personal favorite budget laptops is cheaper than ever. At $434, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3X is a steal with a 15.3-inch WUXGA display, Snapdragon X, 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD.

You read that right. This Lenovo LOQ 15 is down to a crazy $649, and that's with an RTX 5050 GPU for the latest in entry-level gaming performance. It's not a powerhouse, but with its Intel Core i5-13450HX CPU, 16GB of RAM and 512GB SSD, along with its 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) display with a 144Hz refresh rate, this laptop is a great pick for those who enjoy fast-paced multiplayer hits.

In our MacBook Air M2 review we lauded this Editor's Choice laptop for its versatility and battery life, so don't miss your chance to get one at a great discount.

This is the lowest price I've ever seen for the 13-inch MacBook Air M4, making this remarkably fast and long-lasting ultraportable far more affordable. This is the entry-level model with 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD, but the more powerful models are also on sale if you'd rather have more memory!

Amazon is offering some of the best deals on Apple laptops we've ever seen. For the larger 15-inch MacBook Air with the M4 chip, you can save a solid $250. Everything we said about the 13-inch holds true, but it's larger for laptop users who want a bigger display.

This is wild because this 14" MacBook Pro with the cutting-edge Apple M5 chip just came out a few weeks ago, and you can already get $155 off in this killer Black Friday deal.

If you have a heavy workload, this is the one to get.
