Our favorite laptops from Apple, Razer, HP, and others are over $500 for Cyber Monday
As Cyber Monday rolls in, tech enthusiasts and casual shoppers alike are presented with incredible opportunities to save on laptops, especially the latest MacBook Pro powered by Apple’s M5 chip. Currently, the M5-equipped MacBook Pro is available at a reduced price of $1,349.99, down from its original $1,599, making it a slightly better deal than during Black Friday. This model serves as a robust choice for students and creative professionals alike, providing a significant performance boost thanks to its advanced processing capabilities. The M5 chip, while a minor upgrade from the previous M4 generation, enhances the laptop’s overall efficiency and speed, making it a compelling option for those in need of a powerful yet portable machine.
In addition to the MacBook Pro, the Cyber Monday sales feature a wide array of discounts across various brands and types of laptops. For instance, the Microsoft Surface Laptop is available for as low as $549.99, showcasing a remarkable $350 discount. This model is ideal for users looking for a lightweight and efficient Windows device, while gamers can find enticing deals on laptops like the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14, which is currently priced at $1,299.99, down from $1,799.99. The deals extend beyond just laptops, as accessories and peripherals are also on sale, allowing customers to enhance their computing experience without breaking the bank. With the upcoming CES in January hinting at new releases, now is the perfect time to snag these deals before the holiday season wraps up.
Overall, Cyber Monday offers a unique chance to invest in high-quality laptops and accessories, whether you’re a creative professional, a student, or a gamer. The combination of discounts on both Mac and Windows devices, alongside essential peripherals, makes it an ideal shopping event for tech aficionados. As brands like Apple, Microsoft, and Asus roll out significant savings, consumers are encouraged to take advantage of these limited-time offers to secure their next tech investment.

The M5-powered MacBook Pro is slightly cheaper than it was on Black Friday.
Cyber Monday might be a great opportunity to pick up a new TV, but it’s also one of the best chances you’ll have all year to save on one of the biggest tech purchases we’re all likely to make: a new laptop. A new generation of laptops is always around the corner at CES in January, but they’re still months away from release. In the here and now, you can get big discounts on excellent current-gen Windows laptops, MacBooks, and Chromebooks.
There are hundreds of dollars to be saved on laptops from Apple, Microsoft, HP, Lenovo, Asus, and more. And there’s a mix of options, whether you prefer a thin-and-light model for work and easy travel, a workstation for content creation, or a gaming laptop for graphical performance above all else. There are even some Chromebook deals if you’re shopping for a student or someone who wants a minimal-fuss solution for mostly browsing the web.
We’re also compiling some worthwhile deals on laptop peripherals and accessories, like cases, cables, and hubs we like. Here are our top picks among laptop and laptop-related deals for this Cyber Monday.

Apple MacBook Air 13 (2025, M4)
Apple’s latest MacBook Air doesn’t mix things up very much from the previous M3 generation, but it’s got an M4 chip, more RAM, and a lower starting price.

is $949 ($250 off) at

— the same discount as the 13-inch. It’s much the same excellent computer as the 13-inch version, just with a bigger screen, more battery life, and better speakers.

Apple MacBook Pro 14 (2025, M5)
The M5-equipped MacBook Pro is mostly a chip bump from the M4 model of 2024. But it remains an excellent choice for beginners and students in creative fields.

If you need to sizable step up in power for a Mac laptop, the
14-inch MacBook Pro with M4 Pro
processor is $1,749 ($250 off) at
Amazon
. It has a 12-core CPU and 16-core GPU, 512GB SSD like the base M5 model, but 24GB of RAM and faster Thunderbolt 5 ports. You can also step up to a bigger and beefier
16-inch version with a 14-core / 20-core M4 Pro
chip, 48GB of RAM, and 512GB SSD for $2,499.99 ($400 off) at
Best Buy
and
Amazon
.
At the top of Apple’s MacBook range, the
16-inch MacBook Pro with M4 Max
chip, 36GB of RAM, and 1TB SSD is $2,999 ($500 off) at
Amazon
. It’s a lot of computer for those who need a laptop with about as much power and speed as you can get.

The
Mac Mini
isn’t a laptop, but it’s one of the best bargains for a lot of computing power in a wildly small desktop. The base
M4 model
is $479 ($120 off) at
Best Buy

Amazon
, while the more powerful
M4 Pro
version is $1,249 ($150 off) at
Amazon

. If you already have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, there’s no better deal for this kind of power.
The best Windows laptop deals
Microsoft Surface Laptop, 13-inch
Microsoft’s slightly smaller, entry-level Surface Laptop trims some of the size and a few features from its bigger 13.8-inch counterpart, but it maintains excellent battery life and solid performance.

If you want a Surface with a slightly bigger, nicer display and a higher-end Snapdragon X Elite processor, the
Surface Laptop 7th Edition
(13.8-inch) from 2024 is on sale for $899.99 ($500 off) at

Microsoft’s flagship
13-inch Surface Pro
is also on a big discount, selling for as low as $749.99 ($450 off) at
Microsoft
with a 10-core Snapdragon X Plus chip, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB SSD. It’s quite a deal, though the keyboard and stylus are sold separately. The convertible tablet has great battery life and solid performance. It’s much more useful as a full 2-in-1 laptop once you get the keyboard and stylus, which are available at
Best Buy
for $319.99 ($80 off). The Flex version of the keyboard with Bluetooth is particularly handy, especially if you use the Surface Pro with an external monitor.
I’m currently testing the
14-inch HP OmniBook 5
and liking it, especially for the value it offers. It’s very affordable for a laptop with an OLED display and marathon battery life, and it’s just $529.99 ($170 off MSRP) at
Amazon
or
direct from HP
. Its base Snapdragon X1 Plus chip isn’t very speedy, but it’s manageable if you’re not going too wild on multitasking. But the star of the show is this nice 1920 x 1200 OLED panel for such a low, low price.
The best gaming laptop deals
Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 (2025)
Asus’ ROG Zephyrus G14 is the go-to choice for a portable gaming machine that’s great at regular laptop duties. It’s got a lovely OLED display, great keyboard and trackpad, and solid battery life. The base model with RTX 5060 graphics is fairly thin at around 0.63 inches, while the highest-end model with RTX 5070 Ti is a little thicker.

The larger
Asus ROG Zephyrus G16
with an Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor and RTX 5070 Ti GPU is $2,179.99 ($450 off) at
Best Buy
. The 16-inch, like its smaller counterpart, offers a lovely OLED display, good graphics performance for its size and thickness, and battery life that gets you through most of a busy day. All this, in a gaming laptop with a large display that travels quite easily.
The base
Asus ROG Strix G16
gaming laptop with a last-gen Intel Raptor Lake 14650HX CPU, RTX 5060 GPU, 16GB of RAM, and 1TB SSD is $1,199.99 ($300 off) at
Amazon
. For a higher-end model that doesn’t skyrocket in price, the Strix G16 with AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX and RTX 5070 Ti is $1,599.99 ($400 off) at
Best Buy
. Strix models are much chunkier than their ROG Zephyrus cousins, but they’re a better deal if you prioritize performance over portability.
Lenovo Legion Pro 7i (16-inch, Intel)
Lenovo’s Legion Pro 7i is a well built gaming laptop with a lovely 2.5K OLED display and a powerful RTX 5080 GPU, enough to handle 4K gaming on an external monitor. Its only major downsides are a lack of face or fingerprint unlocking and Lenovo’s tendency to pre-load some annoying bloatware.

HP Omen Max 16
. The Omen Max 16 with RTX 5080 graphics, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB SSD is just $1,899.99 ($1,400 off)

The closest competitor to the Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 is the
Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14
, which is on sale for a new low of $599.99 ($50 off)
direct from Lenovo
. It’s the base model with a non-touch OLED display, 12GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and the power-sipping MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910 processor. The higher-end $749 model with a touchscreen that
I tested in my review
is slightly better, but these kinds of Chromebooks rarely go on sale.
The
Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus
is selling for $549.99 ($200 off) at
Best Buy
. I prefer the above Lenovo and Acer above, but the Samsung is still a solid Chromebook with a lovely OLED display and a number pad (if that’s important to you). But its display is an outdated 16:9 aspect ratio that’s better for consuming video content than viewing more on screen as you get work done.
