Last-minute Cyber Monday laptop deals at a glance:
I’m Haley, a Senior Shopping Reporter at Mashable who tracks laptop deals all year long. So, when Cyber Weekend rolls around, my job gets incredibly easy for one simple reason: Everything is on sale. This year, Cyber Monday laptop deals are a true smorgasbord.
Major tech retailers and brands like Amazon, Best Buy, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft, and Samsung took full advantage of Black Friday’s unusually late timing this year, offering deep discounts on flagship laptops all November long. With Cyber Monday now nearly upon us, all-time lows on some of Mashable’s best-reviewed machines are still up for grabs.
Cyber Weekend laptop deals are so competitive that even the famously stingy Apple Store gets involved. This year, it’s doling out gift cards worth up to $200 with the purchase of select M2 and M3 MacBook Airs through Dec. 2 (aka Cyber Monday proper). Meanwhile, Amazon and Best Buy have been offering record-low prices on MacBook Air and Pro laptops. And as we approach the final hours of Cyber Monday, they’re virtually all sold out.
The Cyber Monday deals we’re already obsessing over
Buying a laptop is a huge investment, and it might even be your biggest purchase of the year. To make sure your money goes as far as possible, I spend hours vetting laptop deals. (I’ll sometimes list different MSRPs than major retailers if I find they’re playing funny games with prices.) I also steer clear of models from third-party sellers at Amazon or Walmart. These sellers may use different customer service or return policies, and I don’t think expensive purchases mesh well with riskiness.
Read on for a closer look at four of the best last-minute Cyber Monday laptop deals I wouldn’t pass up, plus more options across the MacBook, Windows, gaming, and Chromebook categories. As I mentioned before, MacBooks are becoming very hard to come by, so if you see a machine that meets your needs, don’t assume it will be available tomorrow.
Note: All newly added or updated deals have been marked with a ✨, while struck-through deals were either sold out or expired at the time of writing.
Best MacBook deal
Why we like it
“How slim are the pickings on MacBook Air computers? Slim enough that we’re going all the way back to the M1 MacBook Air. Normally, I avoid laptops that aren’t relatively future-proof, but early-bird shoppers already snapped up the good deals on M2 and M3 MacBook Air laptops. However, the M1 Air is worthy of an exception. We named it one of the best laptops in the world four years in a row. Walmart is pretty much the only retailer still selling it, and you won’t find a cheaper MacBook Air anywhere.” — Timothy Beck Werth, Mashable Contributor

Best Windows laptop deal
Why we like it
Read Mashable’s full review of the 13-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.
Microsoft’s Copilot+ PC has an even longer battery life than the new M4 MacBook Pros — it lasted nearly 23 hours in our testing — and it comes with AI features that “make Windows fun again,” Gedeon wrote. She gave it a 4.8/5; it’s a Mashable Choice Award winner and our current favorite Windows laptop for most people, barring any ARM-related app compatibility issues.
The upgraded configuration that Gedeon tested is a 13-inch model featuring a Snapdragon X Elite processor, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB of SSD storage, and its price fell several times throughout the month before it settled on a new record low last week. I’m calling this one the “Stop! He’s already dead!” special.
In early November, Amazon put this Surface Laptop 7 back on sale at its October Prime Day price of $1,699.99. A week before Black Friday, Best Buy decided to match that deal — only for it to immediately drop by an extra $100 at Amazon and the Microsoft Store. A few days later, Amazon added $50 to its discount, which Microsoft eventually matched. Finally, on Black Friday proper, Amazon and Microsoft hammered the last nail in the coffin by bringing it down to an unprecedented $1,499 (or 25% off). It was still stuck at $1,699.99 at Best Buy the last time I checked. Poor guy.
For what it’s worth, the Microsoft Store offers price protection if you bought the Surface Laptop 7 there at one of its previous sale prices. Amazon does not, but you do have the option of returning it and rebuying it for cheaper. The retailer’s extended holiday return policy applies to most purchases made between Nov. 1 and Dec. 31.

Best gaming laptop deal
Why we like it
Read Mashable’s full review of the Alienware m16 R2.
This premium 16-incher is the best gaming laptop we tried in 2024 (and another Mashable Choice Award winner), earning a score of 4.5/5 from Gedeon. She was impressed by its ample mid-range power, its “springy” keyboard, and its solid build quality, as well as its “seamless” support of Nvidia’s Advanced Optimus feature. That lets it switch between its discrete and integrated GPUs “to handle both play and work,” she wrote.
Our testing configuration featured an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H CPU, GeForce RTX 4070 graphics, 16GB of memory, and a terabyte of storage. It’s back at full price at Best Buy after dropping to $1,299.99 there on Black Friday (or $600 off), a popular deal that sold out several times over the weekend. However, another model with a slightly better processor and a slightly worse GPU is on sale for the same price on Dell’s website during its Cyber Monday sale — a $400 savings.

Best Chromebook deal
Why we like it
Announced in October, this 15.6-inch Samsung Galaxy machine is the thinnest, lightest Chromebook Plus model on the market and the only one with an AMOLED display. (Translation: It’s super vibrant.) “As someone who got a chance to get some hands-on experience with the Galaxy Chromebook Plus, I can confirm that it is razor thin,” Gedeon wrote. “I don’t even know how they managed to pack any internals inside.” It has an Intel Core 3 100U processor, 8GB of memory, and 256GB of UFS storage, and supports newer Gemini AI features like Live Translate.
Typically $699.99, Best Buy currently has it on sale for $100 off — its first-ever discount.
