Cyber Monday<\/a> is behind us, but we’re still seeing a number of noteworthy deals on laptops that are worth your money. While the number of deals is no where near where it was yesterday, there are still a number of the best Cyber Monday laptop deals available right now. If you’re looking to gift a new notebook this holiday season or just upgrade your own aging device, you still have time to save hundreds on machines from Dell, Lenovo, HP, Microsoft and others. Some of the deals have brought record lows to top picks from our guides to the best gaming laptops<\/a>, MacBooks<\/a>, Chromebooks<\/a> and Windows laptops<\/a> and others. Here are the best Cyber Monday laptop deals that are still live today.<\/p>\n

Best Cyber Monday MacBook deals<\/h2>\n

Apple MacBook Air (13-inch, M1)<\/h3>\n

\n

The older 13-inch MacBook Air<\/a> that was released in 2020 and uses Apple\u2019s M1 chip is also on sale, with an entry-level config available for $750 at Amazon and Best Buy<\/a>. We\u2019ve seen this deal a handful of times over the last few months, but it matches the lowest price we\u2019ve seen. It\u2019s really worth stepping up to the M2 Air if you can: It\u2019ll get you a more modern design, a faster chip, a sharper webcam and improved speakers. The 8GB of RAM and 256GB SSD in this config is only suitable for casual use, and this model will almost certainly be discontinued when we get the inevitable M3 refresh. But if you\u2019re on a stricter budget and really want a MacBook, the M1 Air is still well-built, long-lasting and fast enough<\/em> for the essentials. We currently highlight it in our guide to the best budget laptops<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Best Cyber Monday Chromebook deals<\/h2>\n

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook Plus<\/h3>\n

\n

The Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook Plus<\/a> is down to $379 at Best Buy, which is $120 off its list price. This is the latest iteration of the top pick in our Chromebook buying guide. Its 14-inch, 1,920 x 1,200 IPS touchscreen is good for the money, and it’s plenty fast for the web browsing and light work you’d do with Chrome OS. Both its keyboard and trackpad are comfortable, plus it comes with a decent 1080p webcam. This model comes with an Intel Core i3-1315U processor, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of eMMC storage, one USB-A port, two USB-C 3.2 ports and a microSD card slot. The chassis isn’t especially light at 3.6 pounds, and we found the battery to last roughly seven hours in testing, which is just OK. But for less than $400, this is a strong value.<\/p>\n

Best Cyber Monday Windows laptop deals<\/h2>\n

Dell XPS 13 (9315)<\/h3>\n

\n

Dell\u2019s XPS 13<\/a> is down to $799 for a configuration with a Core i7-1250U processor, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and a 13.4-inch, 1,920 x 1,200 resolution display. That\u2019s $300 off Dell\u2019s list price and only a little bit higher than the lowest price we\u2019ve seen. The XPS 13 is the top pick in our guide to the best Windows laptops thanks to its svelte design, dependable keyboard and trackpad, lengthy battery life and solid display. You\u2019re not getting the latest processor here, but this model is still performant enough for everyday work. The main issue here is port selection: There\u2019s only two Thunderbolt 4 ports and no dedicated headphone jack. Still, if you can tolerate using a dongle every now and then, this is a good price for a high-quality ultrabook.<\/p>\n

Dell XPS 15 (9530)<\/h3>\n

\n

If you want a larger Windows workstation, the 15.6-inch Dell XPS 15<\/a> is also on sale. One variant with a Core i7-13700H processor, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, an Intel Arc 370M GPU and a 1,920 x 1,200 IPS display is available for $1,099. That\u2019s $500 off Dell\u2019s MSRP and the lowest historical price we could find for this config. Performance in this model should be good for most, though other versions with a richer 3.5K OLED panel, stronger GPUs and extra RAM and storage are similarly discounted.<\/p>\n

We gave the 2022 version of the XPS 15 a review score of 93<\/a>, calling it \u201cthe best 15-inch Windows laptop\u201d in the process. This latest iteration uses a newer generation of Intel chips, but it doesn\u2019t make too many changes in terms of design, which is largely a good thing. It still looks sharp and feels well-made, with slim bezels, an aluminum chassis and a soft carbon fiber deck. Its memory and storage are user-replaceable, and it\u2019s not crazy huge for a 15-inch machine, either. Its webcam is still limited to a measly 720p, however, and it doesn\u2019t offer a 120Hz display option. It doesn\u2019t have any USB-A ports, either, though it does include two Thunderbolt 4 ports alongside a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port and a headphone jack.<\/p>\n

HP Pavilion Aero 13<\/h3>\n

\n

The HP Pavilion Aero 13<\/a> is down to $530 for a model with an AMD Ryzen 5 7535U processor, 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. This notebook goes on sale fairly often, but this is the lowest price we\u2019ve seen for this config. It’s also $20 lower than the deal we saw on Black Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Pavilion Aero 13 is the top Windows pick in our budget laptop buying guide. It\u2019s impressively light (2.2 pounds) and slim (0.67 inches) for the money, while its 13.3-inch, 1,920 x 1,200 IPS display is sufficiently bright and colorful. It comes with a solid backlit keyboard and the essential ports as well. It\u2019s still a budget laptop, so it doesn\u2019t have the sturdiest chassis, and it\u2019s saddled with a 720p webcam. You\u2019ll also have to navigate some bloatware. But if you want a cheaper notebook that doesn\u2019t totally sacrifice aesthetics, it\u2019s a decent option.<\/p>\n

Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2<\/h3>\n

\n

The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2<\/a> is down to $2,043 at Amazon for a configuration with a Core i7-13700H, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 GPU. We gave the Surface Laptop Studio 2 a score of 85<\/a> in our review. The big hook is its hinged touch display, which lets the bottom of the screen pivot and tilt over the keyboard like an easel for digital artists. We found the 14.4-inch, 2,400 x 1,600 resolution panel to look great more generally, while its battery life, build quality and overall performance all impressed as well. It\u2019s slightly bulkier than competing models, and it\u2019s still expensive even at this price, but this deal makes it a little more approachable for those who want a laptop for media editing and like the hinged design.<\/p>\n

Microsoft Surface Pro 9<\/h3>\n

\n

A configuration of Microsoft’s Surface Pro 9<\/a> with a Core i5-1235U processor, 16GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD and Microsoft’s Surface Pro Keyboard is down to $1,000 at Best Buy. That’s $540 off Microsoft’s list price. If you don’t need the keyboard, a variant with a stronger Intel Core i7-1255U chip is down to $1,097 at Amazon<\/a> (or $1,100 at B&H<\/a> and Best Buy<\/a>). That’s an all-time low and roughly $200 off the config’s usual street price. Another Core i7 model<\/a> with 512GB of storage is on sale for $300 more.<\/p>\n

The Surface Pro 9 tops our guide to the best 2-in-1 tablets<\/a>. While its 12th-gen chip is about to be<\/a> two generations old, this is still the device to get if you want the functionality of a laptop in the slim design of a tablet. We’re past the point of the year when Microsoft would normally announce a refresh, but the current model should still be useful if you’re coming from an older Surface in desperate need of an upgrade.<\/p>\n

Best Cyber Monday gaming laptop deals<\/h2>\n

ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14<\/h3>\n

\n

The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14<\/a> is still available for $1,200 at Best Buy for a configuration with a Ryzen 9 7940HS processor, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and a GeForce RTX 4060 GPU. That matches the lowest price we\u2019ve seen and takes $400 off ASUS\u2019 list price. This model also has a 14-inch 1440p display with a 165Hz refresh rate. The ROG Zephyrus G14 is the top overall recommendation in our guide to the best gaming laptops. It\u2019s a compact notebook that\u2019s plenty capable for triple-A gaming but doesn\u2019t totally sacrifice the \u201claptop\u201d part of the phrase \u201cgaming laptop.\u201d It\u2019s relatively light and portable at 3.6 pounds, and its keyboard and trackpad both work well. Its 720p webcam could stand to be sharper, though.<\/p>\n

MSI Stealth 14 Studio<\/h3>\n

\n

The MSI Stealth 14 Studio<\/a> is another gaming laptop we like, and right now Best Buy has it for $1,100. This model includes a Core i7-13620H chip, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, an RTX 4060 GPU and a 14-inch 1,920 x 1,200 display with a 165Hz refresh rate. We gave the Stealth 14 Studio a score of 87<\/a> in our review this past June; like the ROG Zephyrus G14, it\u2019s light for the category at 3.75 pounds and it offers capable performance for everyday gaming. This config is a lower-end model than the one we reviewed \u2014 it has a slightly slower CPU and its display isn\u2019t as sharp or fast \u2014 but the gist is the same. Its biggest flaws are its middling 720p webcam and the fact that it can run hot under load. It\u2019s still a gaming laptop, so battery life isn\u2019t amazing either.<\/p>\n

Whether you should get this config over the ROG Zephyrus G14 deal above comes down to whether you can sacrifice a higher-res display for more storage space. The G14 has more ports as well, though the Stealth 14 Studio includes a Thunderbolt 4 port, which may be important if you ever plan on connecting an external GPU.<\/p>\n

Razer Blade 15<\/h3>\n

\n

The Razer Blade 15<\/a> is down to $2,100 at Amazon, B&H<\/a> and Newegg<\/a> for a config with a Core i7-13800H, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, an RTX 4060 GPU and a 15.6-inch IPS display with a 1440p resolution and a 240Hz refresh rate. That\u2019s $400 off and the lowest price we\u2019ve seen for this 2023 model. The Blade 15 is the high-end pick in our gaming laptop buying guide. This model is powerful enough to play most modern games at high settings in 1080p or 1440p, but the main reason to buy any Blade is its design, which is slimmer and generally more premium than most gaming notebooks. Just don\u2019t expect it to last super long on a charge or stay especially cool under load. We gave the 2022 version of the Blade 15 a review score of 86<\/a> last year.<\/p>\n
