Product Information

Convertible Laptops/2-in-1s: Experience versatility with our convertible laptops and 2-in-1 devices. These laptops seamlessly transform into tablets, giving you the flexibility to work or enjoy entertainment in various modes. in 1 laptops combine the best features of a laptop and tablet into a single device, with an emphasis on versatility. These computers come in a variety of sizes and styles. There’s a Lenovo 2 in 1 laptop for every budget during our laptop discount sale — you can find one with a capable processor or cutting-edge specs. Graphics Card: If you are a gaming enthusiast or require advanced graphics capabilities, consider laptops with dedicated graphics cards for a superior visual experience.

A long-term investment: Buy a cheap laptop and you may have to replace it in a couple of years. Buy one of these and you've got a modern device that will last five years or more with ease. Meanwhile, budget laptops typically use AMD’s A-series or Ryzen 3 processors, or Intel’s Celeron, Core i3, or Pentium silicon. These typically have just two or four individual cores. At the other end of the spectrum, high-end powerhouse laptops have Intel’s Core i9 or workstation-class Xeon CPUs, with as many as eight cores.

In this case, you’ll rely on the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections that almost every laptop offers. You need all-around performance: As we hit the mid-range for a laptop, these devices generally offer solid all-around performance for your work and leisure needs with powerful components, up-to-date features and lots of storage. If you need high-end silicon for multimedia editing work or heavy data manipulation, you'll find the latest Dell XPS 15 able to get it all done and then some. Plus, this year's model upholds Dell's reputation for long battery life, lasting well past half a day. Of course, Dell hopes the 4K OLED touch screen will be a draw (and it is); it still aces both the sRGB and DCI-P3 gamuts and produces leading brightness. For the visually focused, whether for work or play, this laptop will please.

Which Graphics Chip Should You Get in Your Laptop?

Budget laptops may only have Type-A ports, which is a disadvantage in an increasingly Type-C world. On the other hand, some ultra-thin designs only have Type-C ports, which means you’ll need dongles to connect any Type-A peripherals you might already own.

Steer clear of the older 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5), though, as it’s now being phased out, with the highest-end Wi-Fi 6E standard appearing in more premium laptop options.

These powerful laptops and notebooks feature efficient processors, ample RAM, and advanced specifications to handle demanding tasks. For people with similar needs but larger budgets, an Apple MacBook might be the way to go, assuming you’re cool with running your day-to-day computing life on macOS. You won’t find a “cheap” MacBook anywhere in the Apple family, but you will find solid industrial design, universally excellent battery life, and a ton of built-in apps to manage your multimedia collection and sync with your iCloud account and the rest of your Apple devices. We largely have Microsoft to thank for the current design of detachable 2-in-1 Windows tablets, and the company continues to lead in this category with the Surface Pro 9. Focused here on the Intel variety, this update largely improves on its internal components with more current and faster hardware. We generally recommend the 12th Gen Intel version over the ARM version of the Surface Pro 9 for its increased power and broader compatibility with all Windows apps.

Chromebooks: Our Chromebooks are a budget friendly choice if you are in the market for something that prioritises productivity and web-based tasks. Take advantage of Chrome OS's affordability and simplicity. Key Features to Look For Most laptops above entry-level come with solid-state drives (SSDs), which use memory cells instead of a spinning platter (the classic hard drive) to store data. Since information stored in cells is much faster to access, SSDs are the best and most common drive configuration. They’re also immune to jolts and bumps that might crash a spinning platter’s heads. Since many gaming laptops have matte displays, touch support is much harder to find among their ranks. Many gaming laptops above budget-level do offer high-refresh-rate screens, though. Hardcore gamers or esports hounds who are looking for silky-smooth visuals to give them a competitive edge will want to maximize the number of frames per second that their screen can display, and can do so by opting for a screen with a 120Hz or greater refresh rate. Regardless of which CPU a laptop has, it’s typically designed to use less power and generate less heat than its desktop counterpart. Intel laptop CPUs in the latest mainstream, lightweight laptops typically consume 15 watts of power or less, compared with 45 watts or more for their desktop equivalents. Apple’s M2 chip has plenty of things going for it, with ample performance for everyday use and even some media editing, but it does so while sipping power and running silently—there are no noisy fans in the Air, and the performance is still top-notch. The M2 Air offers great capabilities and decent battery life, making it the go-to choice for Apple fans and Windows refugees alike. Who It's For

Microsoft Surface Pro 9 (Intel)

At the other end of the size spectrum are 17-inch laptops. They mostly appeal to hardcore gamers, but you can find the occasional 17-inch productivity machine or workstation if you happen to like a larger screen for other reasons. A 17-inch laptop can closely mimic the experience of a desktop, at the expense of size and weight. We’ve found Apple laptops are very often cheaper, and available for faster delivery, when you don't buy direct from Apple. The main reason you’d buy directly is if you wanted a specification, such as a processor, Ram and storage combination, that isn’t available anywhere else. But you’re less likely to bag a bargain this way. Of course, you can't put a price tag on peace of mind. You'll encounter instances when the logic board or the display—the most expensive parts of a laptop—fail, and while rare, such a catastrophe can cost you half of what the laptop is worth in repair costs. Some Windows and ChromeOS laptops do have smaller displays, such as 10 or 11 inches. Some of these are not technically laptops in the pure sense, but rather tablets with detachable keyboards. Unless you’re specifically looking for a part-time tablet or the lightest possible laptop, avoid these designs. They’re lighter than most 13-inch ultraportables, often less than 2 pounds, but they’re not as effective at being tablets as the Apple iPad is, and their detachable keyboards mean they’re not much better at being laptops, either—typing on most of them tends to be subpar. If you're a corporate or medium-business manager, or you're buying for a firm, other ThinkPad models will likely suffice for the bulk of users. But you'll want to start your search for your step-above, exec-level work laptops with this one. The X1 Carbon is no power-user workstation, but if the tasks on the menu include correspondence, presentation building, and spreadsheet crunching, and the machine will often be on the move, most any exec would thrill to one. It's fast, well-connected, and designed to last.

You use a lot of web applications: Storage space on these laptops is limited, but that's less of an issue if you use Google Docs or Microsoft 365 as productivity apps and rely more on cloud storage for files and photos.Whether the screen is OLED, IPS, or TFT, people who plan to use their laptops in brightly lit rooms or outdoors will want to make sure that the panel has a maximum brightness level of at least 500 nits. More options: Traditional laptops, 2-in-1 machines, Surface devices and premium Chromebooks are all well-represented in this price range so you have lots of choices depending on your needs and preferences.
