5 of the best laptop deals available this week from Dell, Walmart and Best Buy

I’ve tracked the best laptop deals for over three years here at TechRadar so I’ve learnt where you can find some of the best value for money devices. That’s what all of these picks I’ve made provide, no matter if you want a cheap Chromebook for light use or a more powerful machine for demanding work and multitasking.

Some of this week’s best laptop offers are found in the remaining New Year sales at Walmart, Best Buy, and Dell. I’m actually surprised by how good some of these laptop deals ar,e considering we’re in the quieter time following Black Friday.

One standout is this Lenovo IdeaPad 1 at Best Buy for $299.99 (was $549.99). It’s a slightly older laptop, but it’s terrific value for money, given it’s packed with an AMD Ryzen 5 processor and a healthy 16GB of RAM to boost performance. It’s an unbeatable offer if you need an everyday device.

I also want to shout out this Dell XPS 13 at Dell for $899.99 (was $1.099.99), which is the lowest price I’ve seen for the new premium laptop with the powerful Snapdragon X Plus inside. This processor offers excellent all-around performance and an impressive battery life of up to 17 hours. The measly 256GB SSD is a bit disappointing when it comes to storage, but it’s workable for your essential files.

Below is more info on both of these laptop deals and the rest of my top picks from this week.
