May 27, 2025: Memorial Day is over, but some of the deals are still around, so browse through our options below. Remember to also check out our frequently updated list of the best laptop deals right now to maximize your savings!
Memorial Day is here, and that means lots of juicy deals, but they might not last long. I’m seeing huge discounts on laptops, with savings of up to $900 on select models. Not in the market for anything big? No sweat—stock up on accessories and fun gadgets for as little as $9.
I love a good sale (who doesn’t?), so I’ve spent the last few days combing through the web to spot some Memorial Day deals. Some of your favorite retailers are offering up sweet discounts, including Amazon, Best Buy, Newegg, and Walmart. Certain brands have their own host of exciting deals, such as Dell, Lenovo, and Samsung.

It’s not all laptops, though. I’m spotting great deals on monitors, keyboards, mice, extra storage, and snazzy gadgets to give your entire experience a boost without breaking the bank.
We’re unlikely to find any better deals this summer. The only downside is that things are selling out fast, which is why I’ll be keeping you posted throughout the day. As a laptop expert, I know everything there is to know about picking out the right notebook or the perfect accessory to go with it, and now’s a great time to shop for either (or both).
Below, you’ll find some of the best Memorial Day laptop deals available, updated live all the way through the end of the holiday. Snap them up quickly, because some of these are selling out fast!

Memorial Day weekend is finally here, and we're kicking things off with some exciting laptop sales. Whether you're in the market for one of the best gaming laptops or a 2-in-1 to get you through your workday (and a Netflix binge later), you're in luck: The deals are abundant this year.
This weekend, I'll be walking you through some of the most exciting Memorial Day laptop deals, so buckle up, because there's a lot in here to dig into.
Let's start things off with the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, now just $799 at Best Buy. You're saving $200 on an excellent all-around Copilot+ PC and one of Microsoft's most recent laptops that unlocks the full power of AI.
If you're more of a gamer, stay tuned—plenty of gaming laptop deals coming right up.
Key specs: 13.8-inch PixelSense touchscreen (2304 x 1536), 120Hz, 600 nits brightness, Snapdragon X Plus 10-core CPU, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Wi-Fi 7, 1080p webcam
Gamers, I haven't forgotten about you. I'm finding loads of good gaming deals this Memorial Day weekend. It's refreshing to finally see some of the best gaming laptops go on sale, and the savings are significant.
The MSI Cyborg caught my eye because it's a cheap entryway into AAA gaming. It gets you an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 laptop GPU, which, combined with Nvidia's proprietary frame generation tech (DLSS 3), can pull off some serious frame rates.
Another good thing about it is that it's fairly compact. If you tend to game on the go, you'll enjoy this 14-inch MSI gaming laptop, now just $799 (down from $1,099) at Best Buy.
Want something more powerful? There's the RTX 5070 Ti-powered MSI Vector 16 HX, and that one's bound to breeze through just about anything. You'll find it with a $350 discount at Newegg.
Best Buy chops $280 off the MSI Cyborg 14 in yet another great deal in the $800 price range. The Cyborg 14 is on the smaller side at just 14 inches, but it's packing a lot of power under the hood thanks to the 13th-gen i7 CPU and RTX 4060 GPU.
If you favor portability over a big screen, this is the laptop we'd recommend.
Features: 14-inch WUXGA (1,920 x 1,200) display, 144Hz refresh rate. Intel Core i7-13620H processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU with 8GB of vRAM, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, Windows 11 Home
Save $350 on the MSI Vector 16 HX this Memorial Day!
Are you on the hunt for a gaming laptop that comes with Nvidia's latest RTX 50-series? Some of them are still hard to come by, but surprise, surprise -- the MSI Vector 16 HX is actually discounted this year for Memorial Day. Equipped with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, this gaming laptop is a force to be reckoned with, and it's ready to deal with the most demanding games you could possibly come up with.
Specs: 16-inch (2560 x 1600) 240Hz display, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti laptop GPU w/ 12GB GDDR7 VRAM, 2TB SSD, 32GB DDR5-5600 RAM, Wi-Fi 7
Even if your current laptop is doing just fine and you don't need a replacement, the good thing about this Memorial Day weekend is that there are lots of deals, including discounts on useful accessories.
The laptop bed tray table, pictured above, caught my eye. Whether you like the idea of working from bed or you just want a nice little tray to stop keeping your laptop in your lap, this neat accessory is now 22% off at Amazon, and you can pick it up for just $38.
There's also a stylish laptop case that will fit a 15-inch notebook (but there are variants ranging from 13 inches to 17.3 inches). It's water-resistant, so getting caught in the rain is no problem, and it'll fit some of the most popular laptops from Apple, Lenovo, HP, Dell, and other brands. It's now just $14 on Amazon, with 29% in savings.
I also found a protective laptop sleeve for $29 and a snazzy laptop backpack for $33, which is 26% less.
- Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller: was $79 now $64 at Amazon
- Logitech G915 TKL Lightspeed Wireless mechanical keyboard: was $229 now $120 at Amazon
- Razer Basilisk V3 gaming mouse: was $69 now $44 at Amazon
- Logitech G502 Hero gaming mouse: was $69 now $39 at Amazon
Memorial Day weekend is a great time to update your peripherals and give your whole gaming experience a refresh.
You don't need to be a console gamer to use a controller; I use my Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller with a PC almost every single day. My previous one was wired, but this one is miles better, and it's now just $64 as part of Amazon's Memorial Day sale.
I also spotted a fantastic deal on a really solid gaming keyboard. The Logitech G915 TKL Lightspeed Wireless mechanical keyboard is now $120, down from $229. At nearly half price, this is as good a deal as we can hope to get this year.
Gamers don't love the humble laptop touchpad, so I also picked out two mice for you today. The Razer Basilisk V3 has a 26,000 DPI optical sensor and a massive 11 programmable buttons, and it's now $44 (previously $69) at Amazon. Meanwhile, the Logitech G502 Hero, which I personally own and love, is now just $39 thanks to a massive 43% discount.
If you're in the market for one of the best laptops, check out Lenovo's Memorial Day Sale. You can actually score a laptop for $91.50, and that's 90% off, which is ... well, a lot more than I expected going into this deal-hunting adventure.
Some of the deals are fantastic, and you can apply a coupon to save even more: use "BUYMORELENOVO" at checkout to get extra savings if you spend $500 or more.
Then, if you like the ThinkBook 14 equipped with Intel's Core 5 210H processor, 16GB of DDR5-5600 RAM, and 512GB of storage, use "SAVEONTHINKBOOK" at checkout to save $918 when you shop.
I'll highlight some of my favorite Lenovo deals below. Just remember to use those coupons!
Take a staggering $1,026 off the Lenovo ThinkBook 14 Gen 8 with coupon "SAVEONTHINKBOOK". Take an extra $25 off via coupon, "BUYMORELENOVO" to drop its price to $945 at checkout.
Engineered for business pros, it offers biometrics for extra protection. There's a fingerprint reader built into the power button, and the laptop's IR camera supports facial recognition software.
Key specs: 14-inch WUXGA (1920 x 1200) 300-nit anti-glare touchscreen, Intel Core Ultra 7 240H 10-core CPU, 16GB RAM, Integrated Intel graphics, 512GB SSD, 1080p FHD camera with dual microphones and privacy shutter, fingerprint reader, Windows 11 Pro
Lenovo is slashing $260 off the Editor's Choice Lenovo Legion 7i Gen 9 with RTX 4060 GPU. Plus, take an extra $40 off with coupon, "BUYMORELENOVO.
It's a great gaming laptop with powerful performance. In our Lenovo Legion 7i Gen 9 review, we praise its powerful performance and graphics, vibrant display, and cool thermals. Although we wish its battery life was a bit longer, it's a mean gaming machine.
Features: 16-inch 3.2K (3200 x 2000) 430-nit 165Hz display, Intel Core i9-14900HX 24-core CPU, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU with 8GB VRAM, 1TB SSD, 1080P FHD camera with dual microphones and privacy shutter, fingerprint reader, Windows 11 Home

I realize I've been neglecting Apple fans so far today, but don't worry—there are some superb MacBook deals up for grabs during this Memorial Day weekend.
One of my favorites has to be the M4 Apple MacBook Pro, now just $1,449 at Best Buy (down from $1,599).
Macs don't get price cuts all that often simply because they're always in high demand. In our review of the M4 MacBook Pro 14-inch, we asked: "Is this the perfect laptop?" as we gave it our elusive 5 out of 5 star rating. It doesn't get better than that, really.
This notebook, now $150 cheaper, serves up the full power of Apple's M4 chip, with a 10-core CPU and GPU, 512GB of SSD storage, and 16GB RAM.
The display is a gorgeous 14-inch panel with a 3024 x 1964 resolution, and we found it to be brilliantly bright. We also loved the 18+ hour battery life and incredible audio.
Prefer something lighter? Check out the M4 Apple MacBook Air 15-inch, priced at $1,299 during Best Buy's Memorial Day sale.
Let's talk monitors. I'm seeing a lot of great monitor deals at all kinds of retailers during the lead up to Memorial Day. Whether you need something for work or for games, you can pick one up this weekend and save hundreds of dollars.
If you're looking to splurge, look no further than the 49-inch curved Samsung Odyssey G9 OLED monitor, down to $1,099 at Best Buy. With a whopping $600 in savings, it's basically a steal, and let's face it—it's a super nice gaming monitor.
The 27-inch Samsung S3 marks a cheaper, but still curved option, now $149 (down from $169). The Acer Nitro is even cheaper ($109), but it's only 24 inches and it loses the curvature while gaining refresh rates.
One more option that caught my eye: The Samsung Odyssey G50D. It's a 32-inch Fast IPS display with a refresh rate of 180Hz, and it's just $279, meaning -35%, and it'll make one of the best gifts for gamers!
When shopping big sales, it might seem like things are still expensive even when discounted. After all, a $1,500 laptop with a $500 discount still costs $1,000. With that in mind, I gathered some truly budget-friendly laptop deals for you this Memorial Day, with the cheapest ones starting at just $139.
Walmart's Memorial Day sale has loads of great laptop deals, with many options under $1,000, so that was my first step. That's where I found the Acer Chromebook 315 for $183 and the HP Envy x360 15 2-in-1 for $599. The former's great for casual use, and the latter will be perfect for students and creatives.
Meanwhile, the HP OmniBook X Flip 2-in-1 laptop is now just $799 at Best Buy, and that means $350 in savings.
Save $40 on this Acer Chromebook 315. This is the ideal budget laptop for everyday tasks like creating docs, web browsing, and streaming content.
Features: 15.6-inch (1920 x 1080) anti-glare display, Intel Celeron N4500 dual-core CPU, 4GB RAM, Intel UHD Graphics, 64GB of eMMC flash storage, Wi-Fi 6, ChromeOS
Walmart takes $350 off the HP Envy x360 15 2-in-1 laptop. In our latest HP Envy x360 review, we praise its gorgeous OLED touchscreen, comfortable keyboard, and clear webcam. This model boasts a powerful Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, alongside 8GB of RAM for seamless day-to-day everyday computing.
Features: 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) touchscreen, Intel Core Ultra 5 125 14-core CPU, 8GB RAM, Intel graphics, 512GB SSD, Windows 11 Home
Who doesn't love a good 2-in-1 laptop? The problem is that some of the best ones cost a pretty penny, but HP's OmniBook X Flip 2-in-1 is now $350 cheaper thanks to Best Buy's Memorial Day sale.
Features: 14-INCH 1920 X 1200 400-nit IPS touchscreen, AMD Ryzen AI 300 series processor, 24GB RAM, AMD Radeon 860M graphics, 19.5 hours battery life
I work remotely, so I wanted to check out some of the Memorial Day deals that could come in handy for people like me.
I love getting to work the entire day while sitting in my PJs, and honestly, many of us achieve that with just a laptop. But, I'm also keenly aware of the fact that us remote workers may need a few more tools in our laptop-adjacent arsenal.
If that's you, I've got some happy news for you: Pretty much anything you could think of is currently discounted, and some deals are major, with discounts up to 41%.

Is it a tablet? Is it a laptop? Is it a plane? (Well, it's most definitely not a plane.)
No, it's a 2-in-1 laptop! (I'm sorry.)
I'm a huge fan of 2-in-1s, and Memorial Day weekend has given us some exciting deals on those types of laptops. I'll keep showing you the best 2-in-1 laptops throughout the holiday weekend, but today, I want to focus on the Asus Chromebook Flip CX5, now down to $399 at Best Buy.
At $200 less, you'd be hard-pressed to find a comparable convertible laptop at a lower price point. It's a great pick for anyone in need of some flexibility, as you can use it in tablet, laptop, or tent mode for all kinds of professional (or entertaining) purposes.
Key specs: 16-inch 1920 x 1200 touch screen display, Intel Core i3 1215U processor, Intel UHD Graphics 630, 128GB SSD, 8GB LPDDR4X RAM, Wi-Fi 6, 1080p webcam
Circling back to laptops, I set out to find deals on gaming laptops with Nvidia's RTX 50-series graphics cards. It wasn't easy—most are too new to be on sale—but I managed to snag a couple.
My recommendation? Snap them up fast, as I can't see these deals lasting throughout the entire Memorial Day weekend.
The MSI Vector 16 HX AI serves up a 16-inch 240Hz QHD+ display, but its hardware is even more impressive than the gamer-centric screen. It comes with Nvidia's RTX 5080 laptop GPU and Intel's Core Ultra 9-275HX CPU as well as 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 2TB SSD. You can snag one for $2,999 right now, meaning $518 in savings.
If you need the best of the best, I do have a deal for you, and you'll save $490 ... but you'll still spend a lot of money. The MSI Raider 18 HX AI is an 18-inch beast of a laptop equipped with Nvidia's RTX 5090. We reviewed the RTX 5080 version, and this one is bound to be even better, with eye-watering specs: 64GB DDR5 RAM, an Intel Core U9-285HX CPU, and 2TB of SSD storage combined with an 18-inch 4K 120Hz display. It's now $4,899 at Amazon, down from $5,389.
These are pricey, but if you need a high-end gaming laptop, you can't go wrong with either.
We need a bit of a palate cleanser after those pricey gaming laptops I showed you previously (although they are fantastic deals). Let's shop for something more affordable.
This Memorial Day weekend, I'm seeing a lot of great deals on laptop accessories; things like docking stations, USB hubs, flash drives, and laptop cases.
I rounded up all these little deals for you in a short-and-sweet kind of way so you can click through and pick whatever you need.
Memorial Day deals on laptop accessories
- Anker USB hub with 4 ports: was $18, now $8 at Amazon

Memorial Day deals
Good morning! I'm back again to walk you through some of the best Memorial Day deals I've seen in a long time. We've got laptops, accessories, monitors, tablets, TVs—the works. The best part is that some of these deals offer really huge discounts, with hundreds of dollars in savings.
What are you in the mood for today? I dove right into laptop deals, and I'm happy to report that a lot of good options are still in stock. Let's start with the MSI Prestige AI Evo.
While primarily a business laptop, this 16-inch MSI notebook will do the trick for just about everyone, apart from gamers. (Don't worry, gamers, I didn't forget you. I'll be back with something for you shortly.)
Be it a Netflix binge or a massive spreadsheet, or even more resource-heavy workloads, you'll be just fine with this one.
The MSI Prestige 16 AI Evo is now just $1,159, down from $1,449, at Newegg. Snap it up before others do!
Features: Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processor, 16GB of memory, 1 TB NVMe SSD hard drive, Intel Arc Graphics, a. 16-inch 2560 x 1600 resolution display, and the Windows 11 Home.
Laptop Mag review: ★★★★
Price check: $1,159.99 (Best Buy)
I'm in a real state of shopping frenzy this weekend, refreshing the websites of every retailer under the sun to score some good Memorial Day deals.
There's a lot out there, and while my inner shopper tells me that I want and need everything, the reality is that some discounts just aren't that exciting. Saving $10 doesn't feel nearly as good as saving $300 (unless the product in question costs $15 to begin with). During big shopping events, such as Memorial Day weekend, it's important to vet the discounts to pick the best ones.
So, after spending hours staring at deals, I have to tell you that Best Buy's Memorial Day sale really delivers. Not only is there a wide range of tech to choose from, but the discounts are huge.
I spotted some of the biggest discounts at Best Buy, with laptops, TVs, monitors, tablets, phones, smartwatches, and headphones up for grabs. If the below selection doesn't do it for you, check out our full roundup of Best Buy Memorial Day deals for some more options.
Best Buy knocks $300 off the Asus Zenbook S16 Laptop for a limited time. In our 4 out of 5-star-rated Asus Zenbook S16 review, we praise its unique design, decent OLED display, powerful performance, and long battery life.

Save $100 on the M4 MacBook Air 13 at Best Buy. In our M4 MacBook Air review, we liked its excellent performance, bright Liquid Retina display, and long battery life, which lasted 15 hours and 30 minutes in one test. We also praised its superior webcam and new lower price point, rating it a perfect 5 out of 5 stars. It's the Editor's Choice best overall laptop for most people
Key specs: 13.6-inch (2560 x 1664) 500-nit Liquid Retina display with True Tone, M4 10-core processor, 8-core GPU (up to 10-cores), 16GB RAM (up to 32GB), 16-core neural engine, 256GB SSD (up to 2TB), 12MP Center Stage camera, MagSafe 3 charging port, 2 x Thunderbolt 4 ports, supports up to two external displays, Magic Keyboard with Touch ID, Force Touch trackpad, 30W USB-C power adapter, macOS

Don't you think it's kind of wild that you can get an actual working laptop for $158?
That's not always true, but it is now thanks to these Memorial Day laptop deals.
I just spotted a brand new Asus Chromebook CM14 at 43% off, and it now costs only $158, down from $279 at Amazon. I won't lie to you and tell you that it'll be the best laptop you've seen in your life, but it can handle browsing, watching videos, and day-to-day work. It won't rival the best Chromebooks, but it's a budget option for everyone.
There's also the lightly discounted Acer Aspire 3, now $482 (down from $519). It's still not a gaming laptop due to the lack of integrated graphics, but with 8GB RAM, it'll be a better option for students and professionals.
I'm also liking the look of this MSI Commercial 14-inch Intel-powered laptop, because hey, who doesn't love a $500 discount? You can pick up this notebook, with 32GB RAM and a 1TB SSD, for $799 (down from $1,299) at Newegg.
My current smartphone's been slowing down steadily over the last year or so, so I decided to go on a hunt for some mobile-adjacent deals.
Whether you're in the market for a tablet or a phone, it'll come as no surprise that Memorial Day weekend is a great time to score a sweet discount on either of those. I'm seeing tablets and smartphones of all kinds up for grabs, some of them at all-time-low prices, too.
I'll highlight a few deals for you below, and in my next post, I'll circle back to laptops with a fun little idea. Stay tuned!

I've shown you plenty of laptop deals, but if you already have a laptop that you're happy with, you might just be shrugging at all these cool discounts. Well, then, how about this: This Memorial Day weekend, why not have a little fun and turn your laptop into a proper entertainment center?
Memorial Day deals make that whole thing easy to achieve. Just for the fun of it, I've collected a few options that'll elevate your laptop from the status of, well, laptop, to your own home cinema and gaming beast. Just plug it in and have fun!

Last night, I did some digging for some of the best gaming laptops equipped with Nvidia's latest RTX 50-series graphics cards. Imagine my surprise when there are even more such laptop deals up for grabs today!
Having these top-of-the-line graphics cards will give a massive boost to your gaming experience. Not only can these laptops handle games very well all on their own, but they also benefit from Nvidia's not-so-secret frame generation tech. I'm talking about DLSS 4, which can generate up to 4x frames to give your laptop a boost in demanding titles.
We've got options ranging all the way to the RTX 5090, but let's be real—those laptops are outrageously expensive even when discounted. Let's instead take a look at some more affordable picks.
Newegg takes $350 off the MSI Vector 16 HX AI Gaming Laptop with RTX 5070 Ti GPU. We didn't test this new Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti model, however, last year's RTX 4080 MSI Vector 16 won us over. We rated it 4.5 out of 5 stars and gave it our Editor's Choice Award for its superb processing power, graphics capabilities, stunning display, and decent battery life.
Features: 16-inch (2560 x 1600) 240Hz display, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core CPU, 32GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 TI GPU w/ 12GB VRAM, 2TB SSD, SteelSeries 24 zone RGB w/ Anti-Ghost Key (99 Key) backlit keyboard, IR FHD webcam with privacy shutter, Windows 11 Pro
Save $124 on the base model Legion Pro 5 Gen 10 with RTX 5060 graphics. The AMD Ryzen 9-powered gaming laptop is customiable with up to an RTX 5070 GPU and 16GB RAM. One of the highlights of the Lenovo Legion Pro 5 series is its innovative cooling system. Incorporated into its design are massive vents, turbocharged fans, and oversized 3D copper heat pipes. It all works in tandem to keep hardware cool and decrease exhaust noise levels.
Key specs: 16-inch WQXGA (2560 x 1600) 240Hz 500-nit OLED display, AMD Ryzen 9 8945HX 16-core CPU, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 GPU w/ 8GB VRAM, 1TB SSD, Windows 11 Home
Dell's Memorial Day sale knocks $250 off the Alienware 16 Area-51 gaming laptop with RTX 5070 Ti. It features the latest Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 GPU with 16GB of dedicated memory and the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core processor.
Key specs: 16-inch QHD+ (2560 x 1600) 240Hz 500-nit display, Nvidia G-SYNC + Advanced Optimus, 4K Camera, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HK 24-core CPU, 32GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU w/ 12GB VRAM, 2TB SSD, CherryMX ultra-low-profile mechanical keyboard with per-key AlienFX RGB lighting, Windows 11 Home
I just spotted a killer Memorial Day laptop deal, so I ran right back here to share it with you ASAP.
The MSI Thin 15.6-inch, equipped with Nvidia's RTX 4060 graphics card, is now heavily discounted at Walmart - it's down to $649. It started out at $999, so that means a whopping $350 in savings, which is more than half the current price of the laptop.
Given the RTX 4060, this is a solid laptop for gamers, but at that price, it's honestly just a good pick for just about anyone. Demanding gamers can lean into frame generation; those who just want a solid laptop don't need to bother with any of that and can just enjoy it as is.
It's rare to spot a laptop with (decent) discrete graphics at that price point. If I were you, I'd act quickly.
Key features: 15.6-inch 144Hz 1920 x 1080 IPS display, Intel Core i5-13420H CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 8GB GPU, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 512GB NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3
You know what I'm seeing a lot of during this Memorial Day weekend? Headphone deals.
As far as being an audiophile goes, I'm only a recent convert, but even I know and appreciate high-quality audio. It's worth the money, especially now when you can save a pretty penny, too.
Aside from sharing deals, I'm also just giving a special shoutout to the headphones that I'm wearing as I type these very words: Bose's QuietComfort, currently just $229 at Amazon (down from $349).
I paid full price for these many moons ago, and I don't regret it one bit. I use these things every single day, and the sound quality is superb. They're also my only savior now that my neighbor spends roughly ten hours a day renovating their apartment, all the while I'm trying to work. So... Yeah, I recommend them, how did you guess?
Not a fan of Bose? Plenty more to go around. Check out some other options below!
Successor to the AirPods 3, the AirPods 4 feature a new design and enhanced audio via Apple's H2 chip.
Features: Apple H2 chip, noise cancellation, Personalized Spatial Audio, hands-free Siri, 1P54 dust, sweat, water-resistant
Amazon takes $50 off the Sony Ult Wear in this limited time deal. If you prioritize boomin' bass, crystal clear sound, and noise cancellation, Sony ULT WEAR headphones are worth considering. In our hands-on Sony ULT WEAR review, they sounded amazing and delivered impressive noise-cancellation that rivals pricier competitors.
Features: Sony Integrated Processor V1, noise cancellation, 360 Reality Audio, Bluetooth 5.2
Price check: Best Buy $149
Save $100 on the Sony WF-1000XM5, which are the best noise-cancelling wireless earbuds money can buy. In our previous-gen Sony WF-1000XM4 review, we gave them a rare 5 out of 5-star rating for excellent sound and call quality. We were also impressed by their lightweight, comfortable fit, powerful active noise-cancellation, and tons of useful features.
Price check: Best Buy $199
The Razer Blackshark V2 Pro Gaming Headset boasts crisp audio that’s perfectly suited for gaming and listening to music. Nifty features like 50mm drivers up to 70 hours of battery life, and Razer Synapse to fine-tune your sound and adjust the mic it one of the best gaming headsets to buy.
Price check: Amazon $199
Any Apple enthusiasts in the house? If you're reading this, you're in luck. I just spotted some really sweet deals on MacBooks.
I won't lie to you—I'm more of a Windows person. But, even though my PC runs Windows and I'm not in the Apple ecosystem, I'm constantly jealous of my friend's MacBook. Even older notebooks still run like a dream, so long as they're equipped with Apple's proprietary M chips.
The reason I'm mentioning older notebooks is that there are some shockingly good discounts on M1 MacBooks. While they're no longer the fastest, make sure to give them a solid look, because with Memorial Day discounts, you can snag one for as low as $649.
Memorial Day MacBook deals
- Apple MacBook Air 13 M1: was $699, now $649 at Walmart
- Apple MacBook Air 13 M2: was $899, now $799 at Best Buy
- Apple MacBook Air 15 M4: was $1,199, now $1,073 at Amazon
- Apple MacBook Pro 14 M4: was $1,599, now $1,499 at Best Buy
- Apple MacBook Pro 16 M4: was $2,499, now $2,299 at Best Buy
My head is spinning with all these Memorial Day deals, so I just gave myself a little challenge: Rounding up the best laptops under $500.
Sub-$500 is a tight, but not unreasonable budget when shopping for a laptop. Gaming gets trickier unless you're okay with indies and older titles (or just lower frame rates), but work and entertainment? Those things are super doable with a cheaper laptop.
Here's what I found. Which one of these cheap laptop deals caught your eye?
Best Memorial Day budget laptop deals
This is the cheapest laptop I found during Memorial Day weekend, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to find anything that costs even less. At $139 and a whopping $200 off, this humble HP Chromebook is a shockingly good deal.
Specs: 14-inch 1366 x 768 250-nit display, Intel Celeron N4500 2.8GHz dual-core CPU, Intel UHD graphics, 4GB LPDDR4X-2933 RAM, 64GB eMMC storage, 720p camera
HP's Stream 14-inch is a Windows laptop powered by Intel's N4120 processor. It serves up 4GB of RAM and 64GB of eMMC flash storage. It has a built-in webcam and around 11 hours of battery life.
I recommend this laptop to anyone who just needs a daily driver. Be it video calls with family or the occasional TV show binge, this is as good as it gets at a mere $169.
This popular laptop deal from Amazon takes $50 off the already modestly priced Acer Aspire 3. If you're looking for a sub-$300 every day laptop for creating docs, e-mails, web browsing, and content consumption, the Aspire 3 is a budget-friendly choice.
Features: 15.6-inch (1920 x 1080) display, AMD Ryzen 3 7320U 4-core CPU, 8GB RAM, AMD Radeon Graphics, 128GB SSD, Windows 11
An ultra-budget laptop designed for browsing the web, checking email, and streaming video. An AMD Ryzen 3 processor powers it, has 8GB of memory and 256GB of storage. The display is 15.6".
I feel like I haven't given a lot of love to mice during this Memorial Day weekend.
Don't worry—my failure to distribute my attention equally doesn't mean there aren't any deals. Unsurprisingly, there are a whole bunch. I'll walk you through them below.
Memorial Day gaming mouse deals
"Gaming mice" and "just mice" are two separate categories—a fact I am painfully aware of.
I've gone through more mice than I care to admit in the last few years, so I hand-picked these Memorial Day deals for you based on my experiences with the brands. If they're on this list, they're solid mice.
- Razer Basilisk V3 X HyperSpeed wireless mouse: was $69, now $53 at Amazon
- Razer DeathAdder wired mouse: was $29, now $22 at Amazon
- SteelSeries Aerox 3 Super Light Honeycomb wireless: was $99, now $74 at Best Buy
- Corsair Scimitar Elite Wireless w/ 16 buttons: was $129, now $77 at Best Buy
Memorial Day mouse deals
If gaming isn't your primary objective, you can get by with a lighter, less advanced type of mouse.
On the other hand, some mice are aimed at people who spend lots of time using them—they're called vertical mice. They look a bit funny if you're not used to them, but they're surprisingly comfortable to use.
I'll show you a couple of each so you can pick the one you like best.
- Lekvey Vertical wireless mouse: was $55, now $26 at Amazon
- Logitech MX Vertical wireless mouse: was $119, now $96 at Amazon
- Logitech G305 wireless mouse: was $48, now $34 at Walmart
- Logitech Silent wireless mouse: was $12, now $9 at Walmart
I can't take credit for this one, but it's simply too good not to share. Our expert deal hunter, Hilda Scott, just spotted an outstanding deal on a laptop equipped with Nvidia's RTX 5070 Ti. The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 10 is now just $2,765 at Lenovo. Using a coupon, "BUYMORELENOVO," knocks another $100 off the price.
This is officially one of the best Memorial Day RTX 50-series laptop sales I've seen this year. It's hard to score a laptop with a new GPU right now, but here's one up for grabs. You can modify it to include a better GPU, up to Nvidia's RTX 5090, but that increases the price.
If you want a beastly gaming laptop, snap it up while it's still here, because I really doubt that we'll find a cheaper option.
This Lenovo Memorial Day deal knocks $145 off the new Lenovo Legion Pro 7i with RTX 5090. Take an extra $100 off with coupon, "BUYMORELENOVO" at checkout to drop its price to $2,664 ($245 off).
In our hands-on Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 10 review, we liked how it has the same off-set touchpad and full-sized arrow keys we've become accustomed to from the series. Like its predecessor, it's primed for gaming, video editing, photo editing, and other graphics-intensive tasks.
Key specs: 16-inch WQXGA (2560 x 1600) 240Hz 500-nit OLED display, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX 24-core CPU, 32GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU w/ 16GB VRAM, 1TB SSD, Windows 11 Home

The Dell XPS 13 laptop is now $200 off, and good morning to us all
Good morning! Today, I'm going to begin with a laptop deal that really caught my eye. Why is this one special? Because:
1. It's a superb laptop, and ...
2. It's a whopping $200 off.
I'm talking about the Dell XPS 13, currently just $1,059 (down from $1,259) if you buy directly from Dell. This is the variant with the excellent Snapdragon X Elite 12-core processor, but you can up your savings by scaling back to the Snapdragon X Plus model—that one costs $150 less.
We've reviewed this exact model and had some great things to say about it. In our review of the Dell XPS 13 (9345), we were particularly impressed with its outstanding battery life and stunningly bright display.
Check out this super portable, high-performance laptop while it's still discounted.
Dell XPS 13
Was: $1,259
Now: $1059 @ Dell

Lowest price! Dell takes $200 off the longest-lasting laptop.
Launch date: 2024
Price history: This is one of the lowest price points for the XPS 13.

Price check: $1499 @ Best Buy
Reviews: Between its long battery life and strong performance, the Dell XPS 13 is tough to say no to. Apart from its somewhat cramped keyboard, it should be an easy purchase for most power users.
Laptop Mag: ★★★★ | TechRadar: ★★★★½
Buy it if: You want the most and you want the best out of your battery life. And if want an ultraportable laptop with a solid webcam and a bright display.
Don't buy it if: You need more than two ports, and you care about the color coverage of your display, or need a larger keyboard.
Monitors up for grabs, with discounts up to $800
I'm a real monitor fiend. While most of my PC-loving friends are scaling back from dual monitor setups and switching to ultrawides, I'm still adamant about using two monitors (plus my laptop screen when applicable). My neck hates me, but my need to have at minimum 9,000 tabs open at once is thriving.
Whether you want to use one monitor or five, the good news is that picking up a new display is as cheap as ever now, thanks to all these enticing Memorial Day deals. I'm seeing lots of great monitors on discount during Best Buy's Memorial Day sale, but other retailers have some options available, too.
Let's check out some of the best monitors to pick up this Memorial Day weekend.

Keyboards, keyboards everywhere: Starting at just $29
Yesterday, I showed you some of the best mice up for grabs during Memorial Day sales. It's only fair that today, I circle back and talk about keyboards. (Don't worry—I'll be back with more Memorial Day laptop deals very shortly. There are loads.)
If you want something speedy, responsive, and on the smaller side, check out the SteelSeries Apex 3 TKL, now $34 (down from $45) at Amazon. The Razer Huntsman Mini 60% (now $79, down from $119 at Best Buy) is another compact option for gamers.
Gamers will also enjoy the Logitech Pro X TKL Lightspeed, which is just $149 during Best Buy's Memorial Day sale. With $70 in savings, it's a great deal.
Want something full-sized? There's the Razer BlackWidow V4, a mechanical beast of a keyboard, down to $150 at Amazon. Razer also has the Ornata V3, an affordable keyboard that's just $29 (down from $39) at Walmart.
Not a gamer? No problem. Here's what I have for you today: Logitech's K345 wireless keyboard is down to $24, previously $29, at Amazon.
Logitech also has this nice keyboard-and-mouse combo for Macs, which I absolutely love, and it's now $54 instead of $59 at Amazon.
Save $200 on the Asus Zenbook 14 OLED, a thin, but powerful laptop
Right, I promised you laptop deals, and the good news is that Memorial Day deals are really ramping up. I'm seeing a lot more discounts today than I did yesterday, and it's not like there wasn't much to choose from last night. We've got so much to choose from (and I love that for us).
This time, let's focus on just one laptop, because it sure deserves the spotlight. The Asus Zenbook 14 OLED, which received a near-perfect score in our comprehensive review, is now on sale. You can snag it for just $899 at Best Buy, down from $1,099, meaning a neat $200 in savings.
With a 4.5-star rating, the Asus Zenbook 14 OLED is one of our favorite laptops as well as one of the best ultrabooks around. We loved the battery life—almost 16 hours of it!—and its speedy performance. It's also super light, weighing in at just 3 lbs. What's not to like?
I suspect this one will sell out quickly, as it's a good deal on a high-quality laptop with a beautiful OLED display. Want my advice? Grab it while you still can.

Don't buy it if: You prefer ChromeOS or macOS, prefer a higher-resolution display, or want to play AAA games at high refresh rates.
Protect your notebook with laptop cases starting at $12
I have a confession to make: I've been mistreating my laptop for the longest time.
Not only does the poor thing need to run for 12 or more hours a day sometimes, but it doesn't even have a nice case to live in. I let it gather dust on days when it's not in use, and I just throw it in my purse before heading out.
I think that my laptop's suffering might be at an end, though, because there are so many cool-looking cases, sleeves, and bags on sale right now in the lead up to Memorial Day. A bunch of new deals just dropped, so I'll highlight a few for you to help you keep your laptop safe in style.
Here's a laptop sleeve that I'm pretty sure will suit most people, all because it comes in many different sizes—and they're all currently discounted. Starting at 13 to 13.3 inches and going all the way up to 17 to 17.3 inches, you'll find that this one fits most of the best laptops.
From dark blue to a floral or striped pink pattern, this is a sleeve that does the job in style. I also love that it has a handle, making it easier to carry around.
If you want space for more than just your trusty sidekick (and by that I mean laptop), check out this laptop backpack. With a sweet $20 in savings, it gives you plenty of space for a laptop and all kinds of travel essentials. It's available in two sizes: 15.6-inch and 17-inch, so it'll fit most laptops as well as a lot of other things, from school supplies to lunch.
Here's another option for those who need a bit more space. This laptop messenger bag comes with plenty of room, and it's available in 15.6-inch and 17.3-inch sizes to fit smaller and larger notebooks. I'm loving all the different pockets, and the $10 discount makes this a really good deal.
Those in the mood for something sturdy should check out this durable and sleek laptop case. With enhanced corner and edge protection, it's the perfect accessory if you bring your laptop to work on public transport. This one fits the MacBook Pros up to 16 inches, but it should also fit Windows laptops - check the measurements to be extra sure.
Sweet savings on high-end laptops during this Memorial Day weekend
Some of us can get by with a cheap notebook (ideally one of the best budget laptops). Some of us really can't. If you fall into the latter category, I rounded up a few exciting deals for you to shop during this Memorial Day weekend.
High-end laptops tend to be pretty pricey, which is why now is such a great time to shop. I'm seeing deep discounts on new and powerful laptops, but I know they'll be coming to an end pretty soon once the Memorial Day weekend is over.

Want to level up your laptop? Grab a portable monitor
I gave monitors some love earlier, but then it hit me that I forgot the most useful kind of display for a laptop user. I'm talking about portable monitors.
Maybe you need an extra screen for work (I can relate) or you just want to be able to watch Netflix while gaming (I can also relate). In any case, a portable monitor makes those things possible even if you're not at home.
There are some really affordable options up for grabs thanks to various Memorial Day tech deals. I picked out the best ones to share with you below.

With discounts on iPhones, Android smartphones, and smartwatches of all kinds, you'll only really have one problem: Picking one out.
I tried to make your life a little bit easier by narrowing down to a few options out of the hundreds of deals I've seen in the last day or so. Not enough? No worries! We have a huge bunch of other Memorial Day sales to look through.

Our favorite budget laptop is now $210 cheaper
To say that I ran here to tell you this would be an overstatement (because I am, in fact, still just sitting in front of my computer). But I definitely typed this out a tiny bit faster out of excitement.
I just saw that the Acer Swift Go 14, which is ranked among our best laptops, is currently on sale. Considering how much we loved it, I dare say it's a steal at 21% off. You can buy it on Amazon for $789, down from $999.
In our review of the Acer Swift Go 14, we were impressed by the superb combo of Intel's CPU, Arc GPU, and NPU. The performance was great all around, and the battery life was just as good. It won't rival some of the best MacBooks, but it's also cheaper, so it's a trade-off.
This laptop is really thin and super easy to carry around, weighing in at just 2.9 pounds. For all kinds of productivity-related purposes, from huge spreadsheets to running AI workloads, you can't go wrong with the Acer Swift Go 14.
Specs: 14-inch 1920 x 1200 IPS touch screen, Intel Core Ultra 7 155H CPU, Intel Arc graphics, 16GB LPDDR5X RAM, 512GB SSD, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3
I just spotted our top workstation laptop with a $200 discount
I'm having a lot of luck spotting some of the best laptops on sale during this Memorial Day weekend. As I was scoping out some good deals, I noticed that the Asus ExpertBook P5 Copilot+ laptop is now 14% cheaper during Amazon's Memorial Day sale.
Grab it while it's still discounted: It's currently $1,199 instead of $1,399 at Amazon.
We've reviewed this exact model of the Asus ExpertBook P5 (P5405) and found next to nothing to complain about. It's a durable workstation with a bazillion ports, a bright, fast display, and solid productivity performance.
Workstation laptops don't often provide a great display; after all, most of us don't need 144Hz refresh rates to fill out some spreadsheets. But Asus' unique approach to the topic makes this notebook a lot more pleasant to use.
This one is also really, really light. You can lug it around all day and barely feel it—it's a mere 2.8 pounds, which is just barely above the 13-inch MacBook Air M3.
Key specs: 14-inch 2560 x 1600 144Hz display, Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor, Intel Arc 140V graphics, Copilot+ compatible, 32GB LPDDR5X-8448 RAM, 1TB SSD storage, Wi-Fi 6E, 1x HDMI,, 1x 3.5mm combo audio jack, 1x RJ45 Ethernet port, 2x Thunderbolt, 2x USB 3.2 Type-A
Price check: $1,199 at Best Buy
Stock up on laptop accessories for as little as $6
I've shown you some discounted laptop accessories yesterday, but today is a new day, and there are even more Memorial Day deals up for grabs.
I'm talking about things like extra storage, USB hubs, or cooling pads. Flash drives, too, if you're anything like me and tend to lose them. Some people have a sock goblin living in their house—I think I have a flash drive goblin instead, given the rate of mysterious disappearances around my home.
Check out some of the most impressive Memorial Day deals on laptop accessories below.

Best Buy's Memorial Day sale is a gift that keeps on giving (no, really)

It's not just that there's a wide selection of laptops for sale; it's also that the discounts are satisfying. I'll take any discount, but saving $400 and up on a purchase just feels good (and encourages me to go spend that money elsewhere, but that's a me problem).
I highlighted some gaming laptops earlier, so let's take a look at the state of things as far as all-around-general-use-case laptops are concerned. Productivity beasts and Netflix aficionados might like any of these options.

Microsoft Surface laptops are still on sale, but not for much longer
If you're a fan of Microsoft's Surface Laptop lineup, you're in some serious luck this Memorial Day. A lot of these laptops are on sale, with discounts in the hundreds of dollars. The cheapest model I found is just $649, so what's not to like?
The laptop in question is the Surface Laptop Go 3. It comes with a 12.4-inch touch screen and Intel's Core i5 processor as well as 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. You can pick it up for $649 (down from $799) at Best Buy.
The 13.8-inch Surface Laptop with the Snapdragon X Plus chip is also on sale, now down to $820 at Amazon (meaning $170 in savings). Microsoft promises up to 20 hours of battery life for this one, which means it'll last you the whole work day and then some.
Craving something more premium? Check out the Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2 that offers up to $620 in savings when you shop through Microsoft. There are a lot of different configurations, so you can make this one just as powerful as you need it to be.
I think I just found the cheapest 2-in-1 PC to buy right now
This just might be one of the cheapest laptops you'll find on sale this Memorial Day. With the ability to work in tent, tablet, and laptop mode, the HP Envy is a flexible tablet/laptop combo that'll do the job well in both work and entertainment scenarios.
Specs: 14-inch 1920 x 1080 IPS 300-nit touch-screen display, Intel Core 5 120U 10-core processor, integrated Intel graphics, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD
As I was cruising for more deals (as you do), I found a discounted HP Envy 2-in-1 that saves you $380. I don't think you'll find a cheaper 2-in-1 laptop during Memorial Day sales, but if you've seen one, send it my way and prove me wrong (so that I can spread the word immediately).
While more than reasonably priced, this little laptop has specs that will do the job just fine. It has just about enough storage with 512GB, an Intel Core i5 processor, and 8GB of RAM.
Will it be the best laptop you've ever seen? No, but it's a 2-in-1, making it perfect for work, studying, and entertainment thanks to the flexible form factor.
Need a cheap laptop for school? Here are a few options starting at $139
I know what you must be thinking: Memorial Day is here, summer has officially begun, so who really wants to think about school or college right now? We're just about to be free for a little while!
Look, I hear you, but consider this: This might be the biggest shopping event before the (often dreaded) back to school season. If you know you (or your kid, for that matter) will need a laptop after the summer, you might as well shop now while there are some really sweet discounts available.
Plus, shopping now means you'll get to enjoy your new laptop throughout the summer, too. Late-night Netflix binges while on vacation? You bet.
Below, I'll list some of the best laptops for college, and they're really affordable, too.
Memorial Day laptops for students sales
- HP 14-inch Chromebook: was $210, now $139 at Best Buy

Memorial Day monitor and TV deals are probably ending soon
Memorial Day is typically a good time to get yourself a new dishwasher or even a new TV, but fortunately, retailers these days know what we all really want: Some nice Memorial Day tech deals.
TVs aside, I'm seeing a lot of discounts on monitors, so I'm back again with some fresh options for you to choose from. And sure, I'll throw in a TV or two, why not?
Mind you, I've been digging for sales for a few days now, and a lot of the monitors I saw discounted on Friday are already out of stock (or they cost more). I'm not sure how much longer these displays will be on sale, but my bet is on "not very long," so go for it if you find one that you like the look of.

That said, you can still easily watch movies, and the built-in speakers will offer sound to complement the 16.7 million color range.

Gamers on a budget, I've got some good news for you
Over the last few years, integrated graphics have gotten significantly better. Laptops that might not have a discrete GPU still put up a fair fight against some rather demanding titles, provided you're willing to compromise on your graphics settings.
That's all well and good, but even now, a discrete GPU is king if you primarily want to play games—especially if you lean into frame generation tech. This is why I'm particularly excited about this Lenovo LOQ RTX 4060 laptop that's currently on sale at B&H.
At just $799, it's $200 cheaper as part of Memorial Day sales. It's not going to rival some of the best gaming laptops, but it has enough graphics power to run modern games, especially if you use the aforementioned frame generation (aka Nvidia's DLSS 3).
With a fast display, a solid CPU, and a very popular GPU, this is a fantastic laptop to grab during Memorial Day.
Save $200 on the Lenovo LOQ at B&H. Although we didn't get a chance to test it, the Lenovo LOQ earned a solid rating of 4 out of 5 stars from our sister sites TechRadar and T3. Touting solid gaming performance and fast refresh rate for AAA games, it's an exceptional value for the price.
Key specs: 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) 300-nit 144Hz display, Intel Core i5-13450HX 10-core CPU, 16GB RAM, RTX 4060 GPU w/ 8GB VRAM, 512GB SSD, white backlit, eclipse black keyboard, 720P HD with dual microphone and e-shutter, Windows 11 Home
Hot deal alert: The Dell 16 Plus is now $450 off
- Dell 16 Plus Intel Core Ultra 7 256V: was $1,149, now $699 at Dell
- Dell 16 Plus Intel Core Ultra 7 256V w/ Microsoft 365 & McAfee: was $1,299, now $799 at Dell
- Dell 16 Plus Intel Core Ultra 9 288V: was $1,749, now $1,299 at Dell
Dell's Memorial Day sale is still happening, and I just spotted an exciting deal. Various iterations of the Dell 16 Plus are now on sale, with discounts ranging from $450 to $500.
Depending on your choice of specs, you'll pay between $699 and $1,299 when shopping directly at Dell. Which one should you get? It really depends on your needs.
More casual users and professionals who really just need a laptop will do just fine with the Intel Core Ultra 7 256V version, now $699. It comes with 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and a 1TB SSD.
The $799 version gives you the same specs, but it also includes Microsoft 365 and McAfee+ Premium. It's up to you to decide whether that's worth $100 or not.
The last option sports a better CPU (Core Ultra 9 288V), more RAM (32GB), and more storage (2TB). Those upgrades rack up the price, putting it at $1,299, but hey—that's still a whopping $450 less.
Memorial Day sales: Microphones, webcams, gaming headsets
I've seen so many good deals this past weekend, my head is spinning. Perhaps that can explain why I neglected to mention some things that most gamers (and most laptop users, really) would enjoy.
It just hit me that I haven't given much love to standalone microphones, webcams, and gaming headsets—things that are a necessity in a streamer's arsenal, but most gamers want and appreciate at least two out of those three things.
Luckily, even though I kind of ignored them (oops), retailers did a good job of offering up some nice tech on sale during this Memorial Day. Let's dig in.

Memorial Day sales are still going - here are my favorite deals
As Memorial Day sales start winding down, we might see discounts slowly disappear—either due to being sold out or due to simply coming to an end. If you like the look of any of the sales I've shown you, better act fast.
Now, for our grand finale, let's have a look at some of my favorite Memorial Day deals that are still available at the time of writing. We're unlikely to see any of these tech products at prices this low until Amazon's Prime Day or, worse yet, the end-of-year shopping events like Black Friday.
I've had so much fun while digging for deals to share with you throughout this Memorial Day weekend. Thanks for keeping me company, and I hope that you found what you were looking for. If not, the deals listed below are some of the best we've seen this year, so check them out!
