The best Amazon Prime Day laptop deals are set to go live July 8-11, and today's early deals serve as an appetizer before the big sale. The e-commerce giant's annual shopping extravaganza is known to bring about the best laptop deals of the season.

Prime Day is one of the best times of the year to score fantastic bargains on today's top laptop brands. Outside of Amazon, Best Buy, Newegg, Walmart, and PC makers HP, Dell, and Lenovo are known to offer alternative Prime Day laptop deals.

Expect solid Prime Day discounts on laptops from Apple, Acer, Asus, HP, Samsung, and more. Our favorite laptops we've tested and rated 4 out of 5 stars and better are likely to be on sale for Prime Day.

Earlier this month, on Amazon, the Editor's Choice Apple M4 MacBook Air briefly fell to $812 in a flash deal. We may see this same deal return for Prime Day, or perhaps its price could dip even lower to $799. I predict older model M3 MacBooks and M4 MacBook configurations to see steep price cuts at Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H in July.

If you're not a Prime member, I recommend you join now to access Amazon's best Prime Day 2025 laptop deals.

We're Laptop Mag, so we're here to help you find the right laptop for your needs and budget. Browse the best early Prime Day laptop deals below and see our Prime Day 2025 hub for the best early discounts on mobile tech, gaming, and more.
