The best deals on everyday laptops
The MacBook Air M5 is very new so this is the first time we have seen it on sale. In comparison, it's currently AU$1,799 from Apple. Want to know more? Check out our MacBook Air M5 review.
This compact machine has a decently powerful Snapdragon X Plus CPU paired with 32GB of RAM, and can happily take on any everyday tasks. It also has a 16:10 (1920 x 1200) OLED display with a high 400-nit brightness and 100% DCI-P3 colour reproduction, and a facial-recognition webcam.
Ignore the inflated RRP, but for the spec, this is a great price for a versatile 2-in-1 HP Envy x360, and as a comparison, the discounted price from HP is AU$1,499 (AU$1,424.05 with code FUTURE5). It features a grunty Ryzen 7 8840HS CPU along with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. Plus, of course, it has a 1920 x 1200 16-inch touchscreen that conveniently folds through 360 degrees. Use the code HPAPR26 at checkout to get the full discount.
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.
Gaming laptop deals
With all the price fluctuations around hardware, we aren't seeing many good gaming laptop deals right now. But stay tuned, as we will be adding any new discounts as soon as they are available.
For those who want mighty gaming power, the Legion Pro 7i with an Intel Ultra 9 275HX processor and an RTX 5090 GPU is one of the better options going, even though it's 20% more than the Black Friday discount. There are very few comparable machines at this price, making it an excellent deal if you are willing to spend big. Read our review to learn more.
