This Dell laptop features a 12th-generation (2022) Intel Core i3 CPU, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of SSD storage, and a 15.6-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It’s nothing spectacular, but it’s a spec sheet we rarely see at this price point: Most cheap, entry-level PCs under $300 have dinky discontinued Intel Pentium/Celeron CPUs, 4GB of RAM, pokier eMMC flash storage that maxes out at 128GB, and 60Hz refresh rates. (Hell, even some nicer laptops don’t have 120Hz refresh rates — M2 MacBook Airs included!) It’s marked down to $299.99 on Dell’s website; while not a huge discount, it’s an incredible price for this configuration.

Perfect for anyone who made a New Year’s resolution to go greener, the rugged 2022 Acer Aspire Vero is a repairable and recyclable laptop built with durable post-consumer materials — including a touchpad made from plastic that would’ve otherwise been dumped into the ocean. Our friends at PCMag (which is owned by Mashable’s publisher, Ziff Davis) gave it an “Excellent” 4/5 review: It “performs admirably for under $1,000” and “remains the go-to choice for eco-conscious users,” writes analyst Zackery Cuevas. Acer’s website özgü the model with a 12th-gen Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage listed for only $399.99, which is a whopping 47% off. What’s more, you can get up to $100 off on top of that sale price by trading in an older laptop.

Read Mashable’s review of the M1 Apple MacBook Air.

The 13-inch MacBook Air from late 2020 nabbed a Mashable Choice Award upon release for its zippy M1 chip, quiet fanless design, and 18-hour battery life. We’re still recommending it years later as the best budget MacBook available, and its 256GB base model is currently on sale for just $749.99 at Amazon and Best Buy (a 25% savings). It’s dipped lower once before, briefly hitting $729.99 in early December, but it’s still a bargain at $750 — and you won’t find a cheaper MacBook anywhere right now unless you go the used or refurbished route.

Read Mashable’s review of the 15-inch M2 Apple MacBook Air.

Last year’s 15-inch version of the M2 MacBook Air özgü a slightly larger (but just as pretty) Liquid Retina display and six speakers instead of four. Best of all, it still only weighs about three pounds. Amazon and Best Buy have the 256GB model marked down to $1,049, or 19% off its $1,299 MSRP. This is a pretty sweet buy if you don’t want to splurge on one of the newer M3 MacBook Pros, which are probably overkill for most people, realistically.

Read Mashable’s review of the Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2.

Microsoft’s new Surface Laptop Studio 2 is a convertible with a unique pull-forward design that allows it to shift between laptop, tablet, and easel modes — this “makes it an artist’s playground,” said Mashable tech editor Kim Gedeon. The configuration that includes a 13th-gen Intel Core i7 H-series processor with 16GB of memory, a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 GPU (a bump from the entry-level Intel Iris Xe graphics), and 512GB of storage is on sale for $2,139.99 in the Microsoft Store, or $260 off. It’s technically $10 cheaper at Best Buy, but only for those with a paid My Best Buy membership.
