You'll need to be an Amazon Prime member to take advantage of these and other Prime Day deals. You can sign up for a free trial, which will see you through Prime Day and which you can cancel after a month.

Update: Prime Day is over now, but we've carried on rounding up the best offers over on our regular laptops deals page.

Amazon Prime Day has arrived, and of course there are plenty of awesome Prime Day laptop deals out there. And, right now, you can pick up the Acer Aspire 5 at Amazon for even cheaper than usual. 

This Prime Day, you can pick up the Acer Aspire 5 for just $429, equipped with an Intel Core i5-8250U processor, 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD – more than enough to power you through most everyday tasks, and at a bargain.

This isn't the most elegant laptop in the world, but that shouldn't matter when you can get it with a 4-core, 8-thread Ultrabook processor and enough RAM to not hold you back. 

And, unlike a lot of laptops in this price range, the Acer Aspire 5 featured in this Prime Day deal features a 1080p display, USB-C and a fingerprint reader. If you're on the market for a cheap laptop that doesn't suck, you should definitely jump on this deal.
