Luckily, Microsft has a solution for you in the form of the Surface lineup, such as the upcoming Surface Pro 10 and Surface Laptop 6, although you don’t have to wait that long to grab yourself a thin and light laptop. That’s why we’ve collected some of our favorite Microsft Surface deals below across several price categories, although if you’re still not convinced, you could also check out these laptop deals and 2-in-1 laptop deals, or maybe even take a look at these MacBook deals too.

You won’t believe this Lenovo ThinkPad 4th of July deal

If you're thinking of grabbing yourself a new laptop for work or school, then a great option to consider is the Lenovo ThinkPad P15v. Not only is Lenovo one of the best laptop brands on the market, but ThinkPads are well-known for being great work and school laptops, so they're a perfect option if you won't be gaming or anything like that. In fact, the ThinkPad P15v is currently a whopping $2,050 off as part of the 4th of July sales, and you can get it from Lenovo for just $899 rather than the usual $2,949 it goes for.

Why you should buy the Lenovo ThinkPad P15v
One of the best things about the ThinkPad P15V is the Intel Core i7-12700H, which is great to see at this price point, especially as a mid-to-upper range processor. It will work great for most productivity tasks that include things like Excel sheets, and it should let you handle a bit of graphic design as well. In fact, the ThinkPad P15V has an NVIDIA T1200 graphics card, which is an entry-level professional graphics card akin to something like a GTX 1650 but with more CUDA cores for graphical performance. That means you'll be able to do graphical rendering and simulation tasks that rely on GPU processing power, and while it's not a very powerful GPU, the inclusion of one makes a big difference, especially at this price.
