Even though it's a quiet time of the year when it comes to sales events, there is always a significant number of laptop deals available each week. So, I'm here to use my years of bargain-hunting experience and uncover the top offers that are worth buying right now, with prices starting at $199.

I've selected a range of options to suit different budgets and needs: whether you need a budget-friendly device for light use, a great value option for everyday use and work, or a performance powerhouse for more demanding creative or productivity tasks.

You can find my 8 top picks below, including laptops available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Dell — three retailers where I often find the best deals. Just a heads up: some are leftovers from the recent Presidents' Day sales, so they may not be around much longer.
