Lenovo just dropped seriously good laptop deals ahead of Memorial Day — Legion, Yoga, and IdeaPad laptops from $599
There's no need to wait if you're looking to pick up a machine early
The annual Memorial Day sales haven't always been known for laptop deals, but the official Lenovo Store has just launched an expansive sale covering all types of machines.
Everything from super-cheap Windows 11 workhorses to high-end gaming laptops are on sale today, and I've been busy scanning through to find the best deals.
Just below, you can see my five favorites that I've picked out from the hundreds of available discounts at the official Lenovo Store. Highlights include a very reasonably priced Lenovo IdeaPad 5 2-in-1 for $599 (was $969), this powerful Lenovo Yoga 7 for $899 (was $1,169), and this high-end Lenovo Legion 5i gaming laptop with an OLED display for $1,499 (was $1,899).
You can read more about my choices in more detail, including specs, just down below. While you're here, I'd also recommend swinging by our Memorial Day laptop sales page for a few other great options ahead of the big day itself.

Lenovo's best Memorial Day laptop deals
Processor: Snapdragon X
RAM: 16GB

This Snapdragon-equipped Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3x is a great choice if you're looking for a laptop that can really go the distance. Laptops with these chipsets are known for their battery life — and this one is also plenty powerful, thanks to the 16GB of RAM you also get. As always with Snapdragon PCs, however, make sure all your essential apps are fully compatible before you commit.

Processor: Ryzen 5

This IdeaPad 5 is one of the best bang-for-the-buck options in the Lenovo Memorial Day sale today. With its Ryzen 5 chipset and 16GB of RAM, this one gets you plenty of performance headroom without completely breaking the bank. At $650, it's not super cheap, but you do get a reliable workhorse here that's perfect for most basic tasks. And, it's a 2-in-1 too, which means you can fold the keyboard away and use it like a tablet. For a slightly more powerful version, see this Ryzen 7 configuration for $799 (was $1,019).

If I were going for a do-everything laptop for both work and casual use, I'd be tempted by this Yoga 7. It's not the cheapest, but you do get a combination of a Ryzen 7 chipset, 16GB of RAM, and a spacious 1TB SSD. In short, you won't lack for power here outside of the most punishing tasks. This particular machine is also a 2-in-1 laptop, meaning you can use it as a tablet by folding the keyboard away.

That means plenty of power, tons of battery life, and a lightweight design. Again, just make sure all your required apps are fully supported with Snapdragon chipsets before you commit.

I couldn't round out my recommendations without one of Lenovo's excellent gaming laptops. This particular listing on a Lenovo Legion 5 is my favorite today, thanks to this machine's compelling mix of an RTX 5060 graphics card, Intel Ultra 7 chipset, and stunning 1600p OLED display. While not cheap by any means, the premium screen really sets this one apart from the usual budget options.
