Dell XPS 13 with Snapdragon X Plus drops to lowest price!

• Dell XPS 13 (Snapdragon X Plus): was $1,099 now $699

Another all-time lowest price comes courtesy of the Dell XPS 13 packing Snapdragon X Plus power! This is one of the nicest ultra slim notebooks I've ever used — premium construction, great keyboard and touchpad, a gorgeous display up top, and Qualcomm's beefy Arm chip that guarantees performance and power efficiency.

BREAKING: Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 just dropped to its lowest ever price

• Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro 360: was $1,599 now $1,099

Samsung's Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 really steps up its game in terms of providing additional power and longevity — courtesy of that Intel Lunar Lake chipset inside — which keeps that 16-inch AMOLED panel running super smoothly with ultra-responsive touch on a 360-degree hinge.

It's the ultimate productivity, creativity and entertainment machine, and it's yours for $500 off!

This is the cheapest Chromebook I can find!

• HP Chromebook 14: was $329 now $119

I always make it a personal mission of mine to hunt down the cheapest Chromebook of the sale! And now, I think I've found it. At $210 off, the $119 HP Chromebook 14 is super low-cost for the kind of system for quick casual productivity!

You've got basic performance here, which given its Chrome OS is more than enough for it — Intel Celeron, 4GB RAM and 64GB of storage. And on top of that, it's a 14-inch display up top and a surprisingly good keyboard for the price.

Here's a great (and cheap) gaming laptop for you!

• Lenovo LOQ 15 (RTX 5050): was $1,179 now $779

Need a dirt cheap system for gaming on-the-go? The Lenovo LOQ 15 is my favorite budget gaming laptop for packing power while keeping that design nice and premium/durable, as to not be cheap-feeling like a lot of low-cost systems.

This LOQ 15 comes packed with Intel Core i7-13650HX, RTX 5050 graphics (good enough for 1080p gameplay at around 60 FPS before multi-frame gen), 24GB DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD. Complete the package with a 15.6-inch 144Hz display up top and you're onto a bargain winner for Prime Day!

Dell 14 Premium drops to lowest ever price

The spiritual successor to the Dell XPS just debuted, and it's now cheaper than ever in October Prime Day! With a gorgeous display, slim, svelte design and a futuristic aesthetic with no touchpad outline and that space age keyboard, this is something you'll enjoy looking at.

And on top of that, the Dell 14 Premium is power-packed too with an Intel Core Ultra 7 255H CPU, Arc graphics, 16GB LPDDR5x RAM and a 512GB SSD.

Big screen gaming for $300 off

18-inch laptops are so back, and the Asus TUF Gaming A18 is one of the best when it comes to price-to-performance. And now, it's even better with $300 off at Newegg!

Normally, a giant laptop for $1,499 gets you some rather scaled-back specs to make room for the huge production cost of a large-scale system. But here, you're getting a fully-fledged RTX 5070 GPU, alongside an AMD Ryzen 7 260 CPU, 16GB DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD. Plus with a 240Hz refresh rate up top, it's a super fluid screen that'll make the most of that multi-frame generation.

Not all the best deals are just happening at Amazon during Prime Day, as other retailers are also knocking off prices on some of our favorite laptops. That includes this Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge at Currys!

Equipped with a Snapdragon X CPU, 16GB of RAM and a big 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) LCD panel, along with Wi-Fi 7 connectivity for good measure, this laptop will take you far for work and everyday tasks. Now that it's under £500, this deal is well worth checking out.

Grab $300 off this RTX 5070 Ti gaming laptop right now

Getting a major price drop on an RTX 5070 Ti gaming laptop doesn't come all that often, but you can now save $300 on this MSI Vector 16 HX AI with Nvidia's powerful graphics card!

Not only is it mighty enough to power through the latest PC games at high settings (and even higher frame rates thanks to DLSS 4 and Nvidia's multi-frame gen tech), but it also sports an Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX CPU and 16GB of DDR5 RAM. I wish it came with more storage, as its 512GB SSD is a tad small for gaming, but an external SSD can fix that right up.

• MSI Vector 16 HX AI: was $1,499 now $1,799

Upgrade to Windows 11 with this reliable Copilot+ PC for under $500!

With the end of Windows 10 in sight, Prime Day is a very good time to give your PC an upgrade to prepare for Windows 11. And if you want to do it for less, I recommend this Acer Aspire 16 AI laptop.

Now that it's $200 off, this ultra-slim 16-inch Copilot+ PC can be picked up for just under $500, which is an incredible deal considering the specs it boasts. That includes a Snapdragon X X1-26-100 CPU (with 45 TOPS for boosted AI performance), 16GB of DDR5X RAM and a 512GB SSD. Oh, and it arrives with a 16-inch WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution touch display with a 120Hz refresh rate.

It's a great choice if you're shifting from Windows 10 to Microsoft's latest OS for less!

M4 Pro MacBook Pro is cheaper than ever!

So the question is often asked: what laptop is my daily driver? The answer to that is the 14-inch MacBook Pro.

Now, you can get the M4 Pro MacBook Pro at its lowest ever price!

• 14-inch MacBook Pro (M4 Pro): was $1,999 now $1,799

As I say in the headline, this is an absolute monster with RTX 5080 graphics, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU, 32GB DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD. Up top, there's a mesmerizing 18-inch display with a buttery smooth 300Hz refresh rate, and that chiclet keyboard/smooth RGB touchpad are a joy to use.

Chromebooks are always discounted during Prime Days, and I've got a banger of a Chromebook for you to snag! The Acer Chromebook Plus 515 is a great all-round system, and comes with the additional value of 12 months free Google AI Pro — unlocking Gemini, Veo 3, NotebookLM and more AI services!

That 13th Gen Intel chip is more than enough alongside 8GB RAM to keep that lighter ChromeOS running smoothly. And that massive 15-inch display up top is great for both work and binge watching alike.

It's an incredible gaming experience wherever you are, and right now, there's strong price cuts across the board. Not the biggest discounts you'll see in gaming laptops, but this is still the lowest price we've seen on these more premium models!

Starting strong with my favorite laptop

Welcome to Prime Day! The next two days are some of the best chances to pick up a new laptop deal. Now, I know questions normally come up about waiting for Black Friday. While there's always a case for waiting (say you're saving up), what I've found in my years of covering both events is that the prices usually match.

So if you have the money to snag a new notebook, you can be rest assured that in my expert opinion, you won't see them cheaper in just over a month's time. So let's start with a big one: the M4 MacBook Air. Not only is it the best laptop we recommend, it's now $200 off!

• M4 MacBook Air (13-inch): was $999 now $799
• M4 MacBook Air (13-inch): was £999 now £849
