Buying a new laptop or desktop qualifies as a major purchase, and Amazon Prime Big Deal Days is one of the best times to pick up a major discount on your desired device. Shall we?
No matter what your brand may be, it’s smart to take advantage of Amazon’s twice-yearly Prime Day sales events, and Asus is no exception. The Taiwanese megalith has a massive product scope, but on the consumer end, they’re best known for PC hardware. We’ve combed through their current listings to unveil five of the top early deals available right now, with updates coming when Prime Big Deal Days start and throughout the event.
Asus makes solid laptops at a variety of price points, and the Vivobook is a top pick for people who want a big screen and good functionality without a lot of weight. We reviewed a slightly different configuration and had a lot of praise for it, saying it was “slightly quicker than most of its like-priced competitors and features an above-average selection of ports and decent battery life.” With a $200 discount, it becomes even more competitive. The hardware loudout here is exceptional for a laptop in this price range, with an Intel Core i7-1255U processor, a whopping 40GB of system memory and a 2TB SSD.
In our review of the Strix Scope II, we said that this sleek and elegant unit “takes a spot among today’s top-tier enthusiast gaming keyboards” thanks to its compact frame that manages to contain a full-size keyboard at 96% of the size, exceptional battery life and hot-swappable key switches giving you unparalleled customization.
