UPDATE: May. 6, 2023, 5:00 a.m. EDT This story has been updated with the latest and greatest laptop deals.
The only thing better than a great laptop is a great laptop that fits your budget. Nowadays, even cheap PCs pack the specs to help you tackle whatever's on your to-do list, whether it's work, school assignments, watching Netflix, or just endlessly browsing social media. If you're hunting for a new one but don't necessarily want to wipe your savings account in one go, we're compiling a weekly list of the best deals on laptops across major retailers right here. Read on for our top picks as of May 12 (categorized by price, then listed in alphabetical order).
Laptop deals under $300
Why we like it
This 14-inch ASUS E410 laptop comes with an Intel Celeron N4500 processor, 4GB of RAM, and 128GB of eMMC storage. It's nothing to write home about spec-wise, but Best Buy(opens in a new tab)'s clearance pricing puts it at an incredibly tempting price point for casual web surfers. (It also comes with a free month's worth of Xbox Game Pass, though we wouldn't recommend playing any games on it besides The Sims or Minecraft on low graphics settings.) It's just $6 more expensive than another E410 configuration(opens in a new tab) on clearance with half the storage capacity and a worse CPU.

Why we like it
The new Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i is a tough and sleek 15-inch laptop with narrow bezels and a fast-charging feature that provides two hours of use after being plugged in for 15 minutes. Its build meets military-grade durability standards, so it'll hold up well against the wear and tear of daily commutes or frequent travel. This particular configuration(opens in a new tab) features a 13th-generation Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a hefty 512GB of storage, and it's gotten $20 cheaper since last week.

Laptop deals under $900
Why we like it
Samsung is finally running a decent sale on its new Galaxy Book3 series that doesn't require any trade-ins. The cheapest one is the entry-level Galaxy Book3, a lightweight traditional laptop featuring a snappy 13th-gen Intel Core i7 processor and a 15.6-inch full HD display with a wide 16:9 aspect ratio. Its 512GB base configuration is down to $750 on the brand's website(opens in a new tab) through May 14 — a deal that Best Buy(opens in a new tab) was matching before it sold out there.

Laptop deals over $900
Why we like it
Last year's Alienware x14 R1 is the thinnest 14-inch laptop from Dell's ultra-popular line of gaming PCs, and the first 14-inch gaming laptop to support NVIDIA's G-SYNC and Advanced Optimus technologies. (Those make it really good at eliminating screen-tearing and give it some impressive battery power, respectively.) The configuration with a 12th-gen Intel Core i7 processor, GeForce RTX 3060 graphics, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage just hit $1,200 at Best Buy(opens in a new tab), which is a $100 price drop since last week. It comes with a free month's worth of Xbox Game Pass to boot.
