Amazon Prime Day is one of the best times to buy a new laptop. However, that’s easier said than done since many of the machines on sale aren’t exactly great. Some might have weak components, while others could be from questionable manufacturers. I review laptops for a living and even I struggle to sift through the chaff to find worthwhile machines.
But that doesn’t mean I haven’t found some incredible laptop deals.
With Prime Day winding down, this is the last time you’ll have to save big on the best Windows laptops and the best MacBooks. To help you out, I’ve selected 11 notebooks that I not only recommend but would actually buy myself if I were looking for a new laptop.
