This HP Pavilion Aero has the biggest discount with AU$800 sliced off the price. It’s a 13-inch laptop that weighs under 1kg, so it’s perfect for carrying from class to class. This model comes outfitted with a Ryzen 7 processor, 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage – excellent at this price of AU$1,199. It also has a display with 400 nits of brightness, which should mean the screen is easier to see in bright sunlight.

It has a 15-inch touchscreen display and a 360º hinge that gives you lots of versatility with the device. It can be used as a standard laptop, in tent mode or laid flat on itself to be more like a tablet.
