UPDATE: Jan. 20, 2024, 5:00 a.m. EST This story özgü been updated with the latest laptop deals, pricing, and availability.
Now is a great time to upgrade your laptop: The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024 ushered in a ton of exciting new hardware earlier this month, prompting tech retailers to slash prices on older inventory they need to clear. Whether you’re looking for an everyday workhorse, a cheap Chromebook for homework, a 2-in-1 Windows PC for drawing, or a powerful premium gaming laptop, you’ve got options at a variety of price points via Best Buy, Amazon, and beyond. Read on for a list of the best laptop deals as of Jan. 20. (And if you don’t see any models that check all the boxes on your spec wish list, come back soon — we’re adding new picks every week.)

This Dell laptop features a 12th-generation (2022) Intel Core i3 CPU, 8GB of RAM, 512GB 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 $279.99 on Dell’s website, which is an incredible deal for this configuration; it’s now $50 cheaper than the 256GB model.

The award for “cheapest gaming laptop you can snag this week” goes to the HP Victus 15, a 15.6-inch PC from 2023 with a 144Hz micro-edge display and a backlit keyboard. This particular configuration comes equipped with last year’s AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS processor, 8GB of memory, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 graphics, and 512GB of storage. It’s not going to be able to handle newer, graphically intensive games like CyberPunk 2077, but it’s an incredible value if you stick with titles like Minecraft, The Sims, and Grand Theft Auto V.

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 both have the 256GB model marked down to $1,049, or 19% off its $1,299 MSRP — a pretty sweet buy if you don’t want to splurge on one of the newer M3 MacBook Pros.
