Lenovo is slashing the prices on a wide selection of laptops as part of the sale, with discounts on everything from traditional clamshells to sleek 2-in-1s.

There’s something for everyone here: those needing a business-focused laptop will find discounts on Lenovo’s iconic ThinkPad range, or if it’s leisure you’re looking for, the brand’s Legion line of premium gaming laptops are available for less, while still offering solid specs that can drive today's games in all their glorious visual goodness.

If you're after something more affordable, Lenovo’s line of Chromebooks are a fantastic option, particularly for students (in fact, they’re among the few Chromebooks you can officially get in Australia), while the savings on the 2-in-1 Yoga range offer a great balance for both work and play.

A number of models from every line are on sale now, with ThinkPads in particular getting up to 55% off. We’ve done the hard graft for you and have rounded up the best Lenovo deals this EOFY, so you won’t miss a thing.
