With back-to-school sales in full swing right now, I'm seeing plenty of business laptop deals that are more than capable of pulling double-duty for work or study - especially since the specs for both are largely the same.

In other words, it's a pretty good time to jump on a deal even if you, like me, left school a long time ago. Anyway, this week, I've picked out deals from HP, Dell, Lenovo, and Asus that are all worth checking out.

For more of my top picks for work, head over to my guide on the best business laptops my team and I have tested.

Recent updates

August 10. This week, I've checked all prices and removed deals no longer available. Notably, the HP Omen 16 and Lenovo Legion 5i creator/gaming laptops have both been discounted further this week.
