Best MacBook deal
Save 19% (AU$325)
Apple MacBook Air 13-inch | M4 / 16GB / 256GB SSD: was AU$1,699 now AU$1,374 at Amazon

The MacBook Air M4 is often on sale, so while this discount isn't unusual, it's about as good as it gets for an Apple product. Note that this is the M4 model, and the new M5 costs AU$1,797 from Amazon (though starts with a 512GB SSD) and AU$1,799 from Apple.

You can also grab the discounted M4 Air for AU$1,397 from JB Hi-Fi. Want to know more about the laptop? Take a look at our MacBook Air 13-inch M4 review for the full insight.

Dell  14 Plus 2-in-1 | Ryzen 5 / 16GB / 512GB SSD
Save 25% (AU$355)
Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 | Ryzen 5 / 16GB / 512GB SSD: was AU$1,398 now AU$1,043 at Dell

This compact 2-in-1 is a basic machine but considering the price, the spec is excellent. It's normally sold at AU$1,398 by Dell, but recently they dropped the price to AU$1,098.90, and you can take an extra 5% off with code FUTURE5. The Ryzen AI 5 340 is decently powerful for a mid-range system and the 1920 x 1200 resolution touchscreen being able to fold back through 360 degrees is super handy.

Dell 16 Plus laptop | Ultra 7 258V / 32GB RAM / 1TB SSD
Save 19% (AU$390)
Dell 16 Plus laptop | Ultra 7 258V / 32GB RAM / 1TB SSD: was AU$2,099 now AU$1,709 at Dell

The Dell 16 Plus launched at AU$2,600 in 2025, then dropped to AU$2,099 not long after, but you can now get it for AU$1,709 using the code FUTURE5 at checkout. While it has been cheaper, that's not bad for this powerful laptop – especially since it has a 2560x1600 display, plus extras like Thunderbolt 4 USB-C and Wi-Fi 7.

Lenovo  Yoga 7i 2-in-1 16-inch | Ultra 7 / 32GB / 1TB SSD
Save 33% (AU$1,000)
Lenovo Yoga 7i 2-in-1 16-inch | Ultra 7 / 32GB / 1TB SSD: was AU$2,999 now AU$1,999 at Lenovo Australia

This versatile 2-in-1 features the now last gen Series 2 Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor backed up by 32GB of RAM and a large 1TB SSD. The 16-inch (2880 x 1800) 120Hz OLED touchscreen display folds back through 360 degrees and works with the Lenovo pen (included) for writing and drawing. You also get extras like an IR facial recognition webcam, dual Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports and a decently large 70Wh battery. It's about 5% more than the lowest we have seen, but that's still a lot of laptop for the money!

Lenovo  Yoga Slim 7X 14.5-inch OLED | X Elite / 32GB / 1TB SSD
Save 36% (AU$1,000)
Lenovo Yoga Slim 7X 14.5-inch OLED | X Elite / 32GB / 1TB SSD: was AU$2,799 now AU$1,799 at Amazon

This Snapdragon-powered laptop has an impressive spec for the price, with an X Elite X1E78100 CPU, 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD. It also has a very nice 2944 x 1840 OLED touchscreen display that outputs 100% of the sRGB gamut. We have seen this machine slightly cheaper, but it's still a solid deal at this price.
